Our Non-Surgical Treatment Approach

Comprehensive Assessment
Focused orthopedic exam, movement analysis, ultrasound as needed, and MRI/X-ray review to pinpoint the pain generator.

Active Rehabilitation
Individualized physio program: load management, mobility, motor control, eccentric strengthening, and lifestyle/sport-specific conditioning.

Image-Guided Procedures (Case-by-Case)
Ultrasound-guided steroid, hyaluronic acid, PRP, prolotherapy, or trigger-point injections when inflammation or tendon pathology stalls progress.

Adjunct Therapies
Shockwave (ESWT), taping/bracing, manual therapy, neuromuscular re-education, and posture/technique coaching.
