Acupuncture for Achilles pain
The Achilles takes enormous load and heals slowly. Acupuncture brings circulation to the tendon and calms the morning stiffness.
Achilles tendinopathy is irritation and degeneration of the tendon connecting the calf to the heel — common in runners and anyone who ramps up activity quickly. It brings pain and stiffness at the back of the ankle.
Like other tendons, the Achilles has poor blood supply and heals slowly. Acupuncture is a strong fit: it draws circulation to the tendon while we manage load.
