Physiotherapist at Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy Australia showing some simple exercises you can do at home to help with achilles tendinopathy.

The calf muscles (gastrocnemius and soleus) unite into a fibrous band, forming the Achilles tendon (also known as the calcaneal tendon). This tendon is attached onto the calcaneus (heel bone).

Injuries of the achilles tendon can cause pain and/or stiffness around the ankle. Here, our physiotherapist shows you how you can progressively load the tendon to strengthen it eccentrically.

If you have any concerns or questions about your condition or your exercises, please contact us on 1800 992 999 or [email protected] to consult a physiotherapist today.
