Midportion Achilles Tendinopathy Treatment

OCS Field Guide: A PT Podcast

Today we wrap up the mid portion Achilles tendinopathy CPG, but we also take things one step further by summarizing a 2015 article by Karin Silbernagel and Kay Crossley called, "A Proposed Return-to-Sport Program for Patients With Midportion Achilles Tendinopathy: Rationale and Implementation." For further reading, we also recommend taking a look at Silbernagel's "Current Clinical Concepts: Conservative Management of Achilles Tendinopathy" from 2020. If you haven't been using these principles, doing so could really level-up your Achilles tendinopathy rehab.
