Peter is a 78-year-old, keen golfer and tennis player πΎβ³, who had been struggling with Achilles pain. Initially, the tendon was very inflamed, red, thick, and painful. Peter was struggling to weight bear due to the pain, and simple short walks on holiday were becoming problematic π.
Laura advised on an exercise plan to stretch and load the tendon, and now Peter is currently reporting an 85% improvement in symptoms π. Peterβs main takeaway is how important it is to progressively load the tendon, and he will continue to follow this protocol until he returns to sport πͺ.
