Tendon Pain Treatment in Kensington

Expert physiotherapists helping you recover mobility, reduce pain, and prevent future injury.

Tendon Pain Treatment at The Physio Box

Tendon pain can affect anyone – whether you’re an athlete, a busy professional, or simply staying active in daily life. Tendons connect your muscles to your bones, and when they become irritated or injured, the pain can interfere with movement, exercise, and even simple day-to-day activities.

At The Physio Box in Kensington, we provide expert assessment and personalised treatment plans to relieve tendon pain, restore strength, and support long-term recovery.

Common Causes of Tendon Pain

Tendon pain often develops gradually and may worsen with repetitive movement. Some of the most common causes include:

Overuse injuries

Repetitive strain from sports, exercise, or work activities.

Sudden increase in activity

Starting new training or dramatically upping intensity.

Poor biomechanics

Imbalances in posture, gait, or movement patterns.

Age-related changes

Tendons naturally lose elasticity and strength over time.

Underlying health conditions

Such as arthritis or diabetes, which can affect tendon health.

Our physiotherapists have extensive experience treating a wide range of tendon-related conditions, including:
1.

Achilles tendinopathy (pain at the back of the heel)

2.

3.

4.
