Summary | Physiotherapy for tendon insertion irritation (insertion tendopathies)

Summary

Overall, the therapy for tendon insertion inflammation initially consists of immobilising the affected joint. After the acute inflammation has subsided, the aim is to relieve the tendon with targeted exercises and to strengthen and mobilize the surrounding structures so that you can provide support for greater stability in the joint. If the cause of the tendon attachment inflammation is based on overloading or poor posture, an attempt should be made in future to correct the poor posture and to warm up and stretch sufficiently before sporting activity.
