Achilles Tendinopathy
Achilles tendon pain
Pain and stiffness in the Achilles tendon. Mid-portion and insertional behave differently, and the distinction changes the programme.

Draft, awaiting clinical review
The copy on this page is written and is waiting on clinical sign-off. It carries
noindex and stays out of the sitemap until a clinician reviews it and a review
date is recorded, which is what makes the medical statements on it attributable.
Assessment of how you run and walk, using video alongside a physical examination of strength, mobility and control.
Most running injuries come from training load rather than technique, doing too much too soon is the commonest cause by a distance. But mechanics contribute, and where they do, they can often be changed. Assessment covers both.
You get the same running injury repeatedly. You are increasing mileage and want to do it sensibly. You are returning to running after injury. Or you have been told you overpronate and are unsure what that means for you.
Shin Splints, Plantar Fasciitis, Heel Pain, Achilles Tendinopathy, Knee Pain.
Bring your running shoes, all the pairs you use, and running kit. You will run while being filmed.
You will see your own footage and have it explained. Most people find this the most useful part, because it is the first time they have seen how they actually run.
What it is used for
Generated from the condition pages themselves, so this list and the treatments named on each of those pages are always the same list read from two directions.
Achilles tendon pain
Pain and stiffness in the Achilles tendon. Mid-portion and insertional behave differently, and the distinction changes the programme.
Under the heel, behind it, or around the sides. The location and the timing are what separate the causes.
Front, side, deep or below the kneecap. Where and when it hurts is what tells the causes apart.
pain under the heel, worst on the first steps of the day
The commonest cause of heel pain. A tissue-loading problem, which is why it responds to loading rather than to rest.
shin pain in runners
Pain along the inner shin in runners. A load problem that can progress toward a stress fracture if it is worked through.
Before you book
Only if there is a good reason. Changing mechanics carries its own injury risk, and for many runners the answer is load management rather than a new technique.
Sometimes. Often not. The assessment establishes whether they would help before anything is prescribed.
Pronation is normal movement and the amount varies between people. It is not by itself a problem or a diagnosis.
