What is tendonitis?
The prime movers of the body come from the muscular system. Each muscle has its specific purpose. To allow action to take place at a joint the muscle contracts. The contraction only moves the bones because of the muscle attachments to the bone. These muscle attachments to the bone are called tendons. Every muscle has a tendon to connect each end of itself to the bones of a joint. When the tendons become injured from micro-trauma or a specific injury, pain and swelling are usually the end result. This inflammatory process is referred to as tendonitis.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
I want to thank my therapist for all the help and support with my therapy. I feel so good about myself and hope that I can continue to do my exercise and improve more. I will probably have my left knee operated on soon, so I will see you all again.
