Why Common Achilles Tendonitis Treatment FAILS (and 3 exercises to do)

Описание: Wondering why the most common achilles tendonitis treatment fails? Here are three reasons why you get achilles tendonitis and specific exercises for each of those root causes.

If you’ve tried doing calf raises and stretches, and you’re still feeling pain or tightness in your achilles, it may be due to: a lack of ankle dorsiflexion, tibialis posterior dysfunction, or weak foot muscles.

Every one of those underlying causes is fixable, usually in minutes a day. Your neuromuscular pathways compensate for sleepy muscles by using the next strongest available. Still, since the achilles may be tight or lack strength in the end range, that can eventually lead to pain both in that tendon and elsewhere in the kinetic chain.

You can start by testing which causes most likely create the pain, but addressing all three will ensure better stability (and mobility!) of the entire leg. Plus, doing he quick exercises for achilles tendonitis treatment can prevent other issues, like foot overpronation or knee pain.
