Achilles Tendon Pain Relief with SoftWave Therapy at Rassel-Daigneault Holistic Health Center in Lansing, MI
Achilles tendon pain can significantly impact your mobility, making walking, running, or even standing difficult. At Rassel-Daigneault Holistic Health Center in Lansing, MI, Dr. Jean-Guy Daigneault and his team offer an innovative solution to help patients heal naturally: SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology. This non-invasive treatment promotes tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and provides long-lasting relief for Achilles tendon pain.
Understanding the Anatomy of the Achilles Tendon
The Achilles tendon is the largest and strongest tendon in the body. It connects the calf muscles (gastrocnemius and soleus) to the heel bone (calcaneus) and plays a vital role in:
- Walking
- Running
- Jumping
- Pushing off the ground
Despite its strength, the Achilles tendon is prone to injury due to its high usage and limited blood supply, which slows the healing process.
Causes and Symptoms of Achilles Tendon Pain
Common Causes
-
Overuse Injuries
- Repetitive activities like running, jumping, or climbing stairs can strain the tendon.
-
Sudden Increase in Activity
- Rapidly increasing workout intensity or duration can lead to microtears.
-
Poor Footwear or Biomechanics
- Inadequate support or improper running form can stress the tendon.
-
Aging and Degeneration
- Over time, the tendon may weaken and become more susceptible to injury (Achilles tendinosis).
Symptoms of Achilles Tendon Pain
- Stiffness and pain along the back of the heel, especially in the morning.
- Swelling or thickening of the tendon.
- Tenderness when touched.
- Pain during activity, particularly running or jumping.
- Limited flexibility or range of motion in the ankle.
How SoftWave Therapy Treats Achilles Tendon Pain
SoftWave Therapy, an advanced shockwave technology uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, making it an effective treatment for Achilles tendon pain.
The Science of SoftWave Therapy
-
Activation of Stem Cells
- Stimulates resident stem cells, promoting the repair and regeneration of the damaged tendon.
-
Modulation of Inflammation
- Reduces swelling and alleviates pain by balancing inflammatory markers.
-
Neoangiogenesis
- Encourages the formation of new blood vessels, improving oxygen and nutrient delivery to the tendon.
-
VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor)
- Enhances circulation and supports tissue healing.
-
eNOS (Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase)
- Improves cellular repair by increasing oxygen supply and reducing oxidative stress.
-
Toll-Like Receptor Activation
- Triggers the immune system to accelerate the healing process.
-
Flushing Out Senescent Cells
- Removes non-functional cells, creating a healthier environment for tissue regeneration.
