Tendinitis refers to inflammation of a tendon, while tendinosis involves chronic degeneration of the tendon over time. Both conditions commonly affect areas such as the shoulders, elbows, knees, and Achilles tendon, especially in athletes or those with repetitive strain. At Tonic Spine & Disc, we use FDA-cleared devices to stimulate blood flow, break down scar tissue, and promote tissue repair at the cellular level. These noninvasive tendinitis and tendinosis treatments in Mandeville, LA, help restore healthy tendon function while also improving strength in surrounding muscles.
SoftWave TRT uses high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate healing deep within the tissue. It increases blood flow, breaks up scar tissue, and activates resident stem cells, making it ideal for reducing chronic pain and promoting long-term tissue repair.
The Summus Class IV Laser delivers multiple therapeutic wavelengths that penetrate deep into muscles and joints. This FDA-cleared laser reduces inflammation, accelerates healing, and provides pain relief without heat damage or downtime.
NeuroMed Matrix uses high-definition electrical pulses to block pain signals and relax irritated nerves. Unlike basic TENS units or electrical stimulation, this system delivers deep, targeted relief that improves comfort and function over time.
Emsculpt Neo combines HIFEM energy and radiofrequency to trigger powerful muscle contractions and reduce fat simultaneously. The Functional Protocol enhances blood flow, reduces inflammation, stimulates muscle activity, and retrains neural pathways. It builds strength, improves stability, and supports recovery, especially when traditional exercise is limited or not an option.
Tendinitis and tendinosis treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, repairing tissue damage, and restoring proper movement mechanics. This noninvasive approach targets both acute irritation and long-term tendon breakdown, helping relieve pain and improve function. At Tonic Spine & Disc in Mandeville, LA, we use advanced tools like SoftWave TRT to stimulate healing at the cellular level, Summus Class IV Laser to accelerate tissue repair, and NeuroMed Matrix to inhibit pain signals. Emsculpt Neo may also be used to strengthen surrounding muscles and support recovery without strain. Each treatment plan is customized based on your pain level, mobility, and long-term goals.
Tendinitis and tendinosis treatment targets both short-term inflammation (tendinitis) and long-term tendon degeneration (tendinosis), which involves thickening and breakdown of tendon fibers from chronic overuse.
SoftWave TRT is part of tendinitis and tendinosis treatment, stimulating stem cell activity, improving circulation, and breaking down scar tissue to speed up tendon repair.
Yes. As part of our tendinitis and tendinosis treatment in Mandeville, LA, Summus Class IV Laser therapy enhances collagen production and reduces inflammation to restore flexibility and strength in damaged tendons.
Absolutely. Tendinitis and tendinosis treatment often includes Emsculpt Neo to build supporting muscle around the joint, which offloads stress on the healing tendon.
Most patients undergoing our tendinitis and tendinosis treatment in Mandeville, LA, feel relief after a few sessions, though full recovery can take four to six weeks or longer, depending on severity and compliance with the plan.
