...they simply decided to read and learn about their injury, try our home treatment recommendations and committed themselves to a daily treatment protocol.
Before you go further, an understanding of the three major stages of the healing process is critical. With the right knowledge and the right treatment options, you can accelerate your recovery without the fear of re-injury or setbacks (which unfortunately, happens a LOT with tendonitis injuries - we will explain why further down the page).
Regardless of what tendonitis you may be suffering from (knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, ankle), the treatment stages are the same. If the pain is significant and/or impacts your day to day life - get to a physician for a proper diagnosis. Once you know what you are dealing with, you and your doctor can now confidently undergo a proper treatment plan. In some cases - such as a complete tendon or muscle tear - there are very little options other than to undergo surgery. If the diagnosis has confirmed a soft tissue injury such as a strain or partial tear, your doctor will most likely prescribe a conservative treatment protocol including rest, elevation, and the use of an Cold Compress or Ice Pack for reduction of pain and swelling. When dealing with a soft tissue injury (an injury to muscles, tendons, ligaments and/or cartilage), there are three major stages of the healing process. These stages are as follows:
Inflammation is the body's natural response to a tendon injury and is a normal part of the healing process. Swelling, pain, heat sensation, redness, and loss of function are the main symptoms experienced with inflammation and it is your body's way of telling you there is something wrong.
Most people know already that the combination of rest, topical pain relief cream and the use of a Cold Compress or Ice Pack (when there is swelling) is typically the first step for minimizing tissue damage and reducing inflammation after a soft tissue injury (soft tissue = tendons, muscles, ligaments). It serves as a critical starting point before continuing into the next phase of the healing process.
Tendons,ligaments, cartilage, and some muscle fibres are considered dense soft tissue. As a result, they naturally receive limited blood flow and this is precisely why injuries to these tissues take so long to heal. Knowing that enhanced blood flow is a critical necessity for accelerated healing of soft tissue, the challenge becomes this: How do you effectively increase blood flow to dense soft tissue (tendons) that normally receives very little blood flow?
When you are suffering from a tendon injury, there is reduced blood flow to the injury site. Inflammation and reduced movement (lack of activity or on-going immobility) will reduce the flow of blood - and if you think about it, this makes sense. Moving the joint(s) where you have tendonitis is very painful - so it is very common for tendonitis sufferers to have significantly reduced mobility. Over time, reduced movement leads to atrophy - a shortening of muscles, tendons and ligaments of the joint. Due to this - as your tendon heals - you run a high risk of straining your muscles and tendons as they have become shortened due to lack of use. This leads to a high risk of strain and reinjury, possibly putting you into a chronic soft tissue injury cycle.
It is through the blood the body carries the nutrients and oxygen that injured tendons (and surrounding soft tissue) need to repair and rebuild. It is well known that increased blood flow helps your body accelerate the healing process.
This is why the TShellz Wrap® is such an important tool. The whole purpose of the wrap is to accelerate blood flow to soft tissue. The end result: blood vessels will naturally expand and allow for more blood flow to reach the very tissues you are trying to heal. In addition, this process will help clear the area of toxins and excess fluid build up, thereby reducing inflammation.
With dedication, the right tools, and the right information - you will achieve your goal of a sustainable recovery. A combination approach of cold compression, TShellz Wrap® treatments, and functional movements will make it happen much more quickly in the vast majority of cases.
In our experience, soft tissue repair rates via conservative home treatment methods using a dedicated, comprehensive approach have surprised many of our clients, but will differ from person to person. In nearly all cases, however, it is very important to stop whatever you were doing that created the injury in the first place (ie. running, climbing stairs, etc).

Most of you are reading this because you suspect you have a tendon injury, or perhaps you have already received a confirmed diagnosis (tendonitis, partial tendon tear, tendinosis, tenosynovitis). Either way, you are most likely interested in learning; what are the steps I need to take to properly heal my tendon?
We receive questions like this on a daily basis. The approach we take is based on years of experience and based on sound, scientific principles. We discuss these approaches in-depth further down the page and throughout the rest of the website. Before getting into that however, it is important to understand the characteristics of the tendon and the role it plays within the body.
A tendon is a tough yet flexible band of white fibrous tissue that connects a muscle to other budy parts - usually a bone. As an example, when your bicep muscle contracts the pulling force from the contracting muscle travels through a tendon located around the inside of the elbow (named the "distal biceps tendon"). The distal biceps tendon attaches to the radius bone in the forearm. This means that contracting the biceps muscle exerts a pulling force on the forearm via the tendon and has the net effect of pulling the forearm toward the upper arm. Many parts of the body exert a lot of force via leverage, and your tendons bear the brunt of this force; as such, tendons are needed to be very tough.
The achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the body, and its main function is the transmission of power from the calf muscles to the heel and foot. When walking, running or jumping, the achilles at times can bear forces equal to 3 times your body weight and more - this is truly amazing and speaks to the true toughness of a tendon. Some studies have shown that for runners, 20% of the achilles tendon is damaged and is continually undergoing damage/healing cycles - a true testament to the ability of the human body to continuously repair itself.
If you suspect you may have tendonitis, go consult your physician. Only your physician can truly diagnose if you are experiencing tendonitis - or any other tendon injury, and from this, determine a course of proper treatment.
After seeking medical advice, your physician may recommend surgery (in cases of major tears or an avulsion) but in most cases, they will recommend conservative treatment options.
Tendonitis means that you are experiencing micro-tearing in the tendon itself and is often caused from repetitive stress to the tendon without adequate time taken between period to heal. See your physician if symptoms do not go away within a few weeks. It can take several months to get rid of tendonitis, though conservative treatments and/or medical treatments can speed up the process. It is important to deal with tendonitis quickly as the longer tendonitis continues, the greater the chance this injury will cause strains and secondary injuries due to overcompensation and decreased Range of Motion that accompanies tendonitis.
If tendon surgery is undertaken, you will find we have effective solutions for post-surgery recovery. Read more about effective options for pre/post surgery here.
Once a tendon becomes irritated and inflamed, recovery time is lengthy, requiring a reduction in activity for a long period of time to allow the tendon to heal. This is why many chronic (long term) tendonitis sufferers start having muscle atrophy and range of motion issue in the affected joint. An inflamed tendon will often starting causing inflammation in nearby areas, and your immobile joint will begin to lose more flexibility as unused muscles shorten over time (atrophy), leaving you more prone to restraining of the tendon and nearby muscles. This is why it is important to heal your tendon as quickly as possible - you need to avoid the vicious cycle of decreased Range of Motion and re-injury that will occur with chronic (long term) tendonitis.
Before we go further, it is important to understand that your body is capable of healing itself. This is why your physician will always try to opt for the conservative treatment first - usually it works although it does take time to heal. Your blood flow carries oxygen and much needed nutrients to damaged tissue in the body while also flushing away toxins and waste at the same time. When you have a tendon injury, however, there is not much blood flow to your tendons; inflammation and lack of joint movement will reduces the flow of blood to the injured area as well, starving your injured area of much needed nutrients to repair itself. Further to this, if you are moving your injured joint around you run a risk of increasing the severity of the injury. If there has been some healing, you could re-injure your tendon all over again.
Blood Flow (the natural healing process in your body) needs assistance for such injuries because blood flow is greatly restricted when you are immobile. When treating any soft tissue injury such as tendinitis or a partial tear, an effective treatment will increase blood flow to the injury while the joint is immobile. The increased blood flow will accelerate the body's own ability to heal itself.
If you have an injured tendon, it's very important to heal it quickly and completely. Minimizing the healing time should be an obvious goal, as a serious tendon injury will most assuredly limit your ability to go about your daily routine. "Not all tendon injuries start out serious. But often the small tendon injuries can lead to a worsening injury, joint damage and disability if left untreated. And having a tendon injury - even a minor one - makes it more likely that you'll have similar injuries in the future."
(Knee Pain: MayoClinic.com. 29 Mar. 2013. )
This is the final reason for extended bursitis and soft tissue injuries. We see it all the time - people for weeks and even months only focus on using cold.
Doing too much cold will actually inhibit the recovery because you are starving the injured tissues of the blood flow they need to repair and rebuild the collagen. Cold restricts the vessels - reducing the blood flow to the tissues that truly need it most.
The truth is, there will always some mild inflammation associated with tissue injuries. However, some of that inflammation will remain UNTIL you begin to focus on healing the soft tissue (muscle). Once this begins to heal, the inflammation will then subside more permanently - not just temporarily like with cold treatments.
As an analogy, think of a home with a leaky roof. You can place a bucket on the floor of the attic whenever it rains - and this will help temporarily, but does it truly address the situation? Obviously the answer is no. Not until you focus on repairing the structural issues with the roof - will the problem be actually solved.
The same concept applies to injured soft tissue - you need to focus on reinforcing growth of flexible, strong tissue. To do this, you need more blood flow reaching them, not less.
This can be VERY helpful in alleviating pain and in many cases, pain relief alone can make a huge difference. However, some people get a false sense that their injury is healed because they are not experiencing the pain they once did. Some individuals even engage in activities they should not be doing because they "no longer feel pain". Once the effects wear off, people often find their tendonitis persists . This of course, results in a prolonged recovery. Be very careful about your activity after the injection because there is little, if any, pain feedback to tell you that you're overdoing it.
Merely masking the pain can be very helpful temporarily, but it is not a solution; it is just a temporary fix.
While we tout the benefits of PT and believe it to be integral for most sufferers of tendonitis, the problem is that people only attend sessions a few times a week.
To truly provide a long term solution to your tendon strain, you need to be receiving multiple treatments on a daily basis. Not just any type of treatments, but ones that focus on generation of new healthy tissue.
Treatments for tendons are cumulative in nature...meaning the more the treatments are administered, the faster the benefits can be experienced.
Who these days has time to visit a therapist on a daily basis? Not only is your time limited, but the cost of daily PT sessions is out of reach for most people.
Therefore, the focus needs to be on adding treatment options that can be done frequently, from the comfort of your own home (and even the workplace if the opportunity presents itself). We will discuss these options later on down the page.
It goes without saying that anyone suffering from tendonitis or tendinosis should want to minimize their chance of worsening the injury, or re-injuring the tendon once it has started to get better. Obviously, a worsening injury will delay the healing process, but what's worse is that every re-injury and additional healing cycle increases the amount of time that your joint is immobilized. Time not kind to an immobilized joint - you lose strength in the joint but worse than that, you lose the range of motion in your joint via atrophy ( muscles, tendons and ligaments slowly shrink and weaken, decreasing joint elasticity). The more time that goes by with an immobile joint, the more likely you will wind up with a chronic joint problem (long term injury such as tendinosis and/or bursitis). Basically it means that your joint will not perform as well as it once did and it becomes more prone to injury again later on.
If you've been living with the agony of tendonitis, tendinosis or tenosynovitis for some time now, it's almost a sure thing that you're feeling discouraged, tired, and worn-out. Seemingly simple chores are now impossible - like getting in and out of a car, cooking a meal, or just standing and walking for significant periods of time. The constant pain has no doubt interrupted your sleep, just adding to the long-term misery that this condition can bring on.
Inflamed tendons cause extreme pain and reduce your ability to move. It can be very challenging to keep a positive attitude and outlook when suffering from the pain and immobility that a tendon injury can bring.
If you choose not to deal with your tendonitis, you may end up in a long term downward spiral. What ends up happening is that significant pain from a tendon injury will often freeze you up over a long period, cause overcompensation injuries and decrease the range of motion in your affected joint (which can by itself cause secondary soft tissue injuries). This will definitely set back your recovery and in some cases, it can trigger a long term problem that never goes away (reduced joint mobility, tendonosis, permanent limp).
Every time we use our joint where there is a damaged tendon, these tendons and muscle tissue move; and when this happens, every movement hurts. With injured soft tissue, pain happens - sometimes a LOT of pain, so we try not to move it. So, when doing something we need to use our affected joint for (climbing stairs, getting up from the sofa, moving a car wheel, walking to the mailbox), we start to use the non-affected joints more. In the case of tendonitis in the shoulder, we use our other shoulder instead even though it is inconvenient. In cases of tendonitis in the hip, you may find you are using your knees and back more - and so forth.
A couple days later (after purposefully avoiding movement of affected joint), the pain has gone down (as well as the swelling) and this is where the trouble begins! The pain disappeared with the swelling but we still aren't fully healed! Not knowing this, we start using our joint again and then the injury swells up again like it did before - all because the injury wasn't fully healed in the first place.
Eventually, we use the other leg/shoulder/arm more and more, over a lengthy period of time. This is why the other joints start to hurt - they are being overused and taking the load that your affected joint once did. Soon, aches and pain can become commonplace elsewhere in the body - all as a result of the original bursitis injury and the body's instinctive nature to "protect" the original injury - all because the injury wasn't fully healed in the first place!
Muscle imbalances result, placing tension on bone and softer tissues - leading to a misalignment within the lower body. The extra stress on the opposite side of the body will also result in weakness and fatigue of soft tissue - increasing the chances they can eventually be injured or gradually degenerate. This is a textbook example of how you get an overcompensation injury. In some cases, physical therapists warn that overcompensation can be very dangerous as it will affect gait or alignment on a permanent basis.
An injury to one tendon can easily lead to straining in other areas, making an overall recovery hard to initiate. For example, a serious case tendon strain in the right achilles can often lead to over-straining of the left achilles tendon and even hip or knee strain. Most commonly, the injury occurs on the dominant side, so the risk of straining the other (weaker) side increases. The longer the injury (and corresponding pain) persists, the greater the chance that you will sustain more strain from overcompensation, eventually leading to issues in those areas as well. To minimize potential secondary injuries, know that it is important to deal with your bursitis injury quickly and completely.
Long lasting tendon injury pain can trigger a vicious overcompensation and re-injury cycle - which is why it is absolutely critical to focus on methods that improve and strengthen the injured tendon in a timely manner. The faster you truly heal, the less chance you have of sinking into a downward spiral of re-injury, scar tissue growth, atrophy and overcompensation injuries.

If you suspect you may have a damaged tendon, the first thing to do is consult your physician; only your physician can give you a proper diagnosis and from this, determine a course of proper treatment. After seeking medical advice, your physician will determine the degree of severity, look for signs of infectiong determine whether or not it is actually a symptomatically similar condition (important!). In some cases of severe tendon damage, your physician may recommend surgery in which case a conservative treatment protocol would be recommended after your skin heals up from the surgery.
Anyone can injure their tendon badly, not just professional athletes. Tendon injuries are very common and are often a result of a quick high load force or conversely, frequent repetitive movements that will strain and even tear the tendon over time. There are hundreds of possible tendon injuries though the rotator cuff, bicep, achilles, elbow and and knee tendon injuries are most common. Regardless of the location of the tendon injury, a strained or partially torn tendon is painful and your affected joint can feel very unstable. Tendon injuries can persist for years and be disruptive to your way of life. Recovery can take a long time but proper healing is essential to regain strength and get you back to the activities you enjoy.
You will find it is almost impossible to keep from re-straining your tendon because even when the pain is gone you still aren't fully healed. But, when the pain disappears, that's when we start moving (and working) normally again even though it isn't fully healed. It's just not possible to stop everything and rest the injury properly. Everyone has demands that make them keep going and when we are active we prevent the knee from healing completely. We continually re-injure the area through our daily activities which can often lead to tendon surgery or long-term chronic (permanent) injury later on.
If your tendon is strained or partially torn, your physician will almost always recommend conservative treatment options. Conservative treatment options for a tendon injury typically mean rest, ice the injury, elevate the injury, and take anti-inflammatory medication. If your physician has decided that your injury can be treated with conservative treatment options, then you will find that many of our customers have had great success treating themselves via the guidelines we mention below. If surgical intervention is required, talk with your physician about using these same products for post-surgery recovery as you will find them to be effective for reducing post-surgery inflammation, enhancing range of motion and minimizing scar tissue growth.
A general outline of our conservative home treatment recommendations follow..
If you are experiencing pain and swelling in the very early stages of the injury (first 48 to 72 hours), the first step in a conservative treatment protocol would be to focus on reducing the discomfort by applying a Cold Compress or Ice Pack to the injured tendon along with a high quality pain relief cream such as our Arnica Infusion Cream.
Not only will you use your Cold Compress or Ice Pack for the first 48 to 72 hours after the injury, but you should also use it during other stages of the healing process. Some examples include...
Having a Cold Compress or Ice Pack available at home to use if and when the need arises is helpful. Many of you already do so.
However, too many people over-focus on cold while ignoring the most critical aspect to healing - nourishing the injured tissues with a healthy supply of blood flow needed to repair and rebuild the injured tissues.
This leads to the most important recommendation...
Even though the concept is simple, improving blood flow to injured tissues can be difficult. When the injury is tendon related, the challenges are even greater as there is very little blood flow to a tendon in the first place - This is one of the reasons why it is so slow to heal. Traditional methods require movement to promote blood flow (exercise), but that same motion that promotes blood flow can at times lead to making your pain and condition worse.
Most people we deal with tell us these scenarios have happened to them many times in the past. Perhaps it has already happened to you.
Promoting blood flow within a muscle or soft tissue injury to help the body heal itself is a concept that has been utilized for centuries. This is where the focus has to be if you are seeking long-term improvement.
Oxygen and nutrients, carried within the blood, are critical for the body to heal itself. Without proper blood flow, recovering from an injury or condition will be delayed...sometimes for a very long period of time.
The real challenge is how do you promote blood flow to the injury site without causing further damage? This goal is further complicated by the fact that tendons receive very little blood flow to start with.
Energy emitted by the TShellz Wraps® operate by increasing blood flow in our injured soft tissue. Soft tissue includes ligaments, muscles, and tendons. The objective of the TShellz Wrap® is to increase blood flow in these targeted areas, resulting in relaxation of the vessel walls. The vessels then gently expand, allowing for more nutrient rich blood flow along with extra oxygen to reach the damaged tissues. Plus, the enhanced blood flow helps in flushing waste and fluid build-up from the injury site - further enhancing the ability of the body to heal.
Once energy from the TShellz Wrap® absorbs into soft tissue and surrounding area, the metabolic response then kick starts the repair process.T•Shellz Wrap. More blood now begins to flow effectively to injured soft tissues within the body - the injured tissue needs the extra blood flow to heal as it is through the blood the body carries the oxygen and nutrients needed for proper and long-term healing.
Aside from a Cold Compress or Ice Pack to reduce inflammation at the onset of tendinitis, we now proceed to recommendation number two in your home recovery journey...
The best option we came across in our research to accomplish a substantial of blood flow to soft tissue outside of exercise is the TShellz Wrap®. Use of this device results in an increase of blood flow to the treatment area - all in a non-invasive manner.
Have you seen what happens when you add water to a flower wilted from drought? In essence, your injured tendon is much like a "wilted" flower; your body wants to heal its injury, but needs lots of nutrients to do it. Blood brings new life to your tissue by delivering healing nutrients and oxygen that are vital for its survival. In addition, the blood carries away toxins and waste cleaning the area and healing it faster. Without a good supply of blood, your tendon simply won't heal properly.
Using a TShellz Wrap® will not expose you to the risk of causing further harm to soft tissue like you can when using rigorous exercise. The TShellz Wrap® accomplishes the goal of enhanced blood flow without the need for intensive exercise and as such reduces your risk of re-injury.
The intention of a TShellz Wrap® is to ease pain by blood vessel dilation, decrease stiffness by elongation of soft tissue, improve blood circulation, and boost metabolism and enzyme activity. In stimulating localized blood flow to damaged soft tissue, you provide needed oxygen and nutrients to grow strong healthy collagen. In addition, you will experience a clearing of toxins and excess fluid build up from the injury site. Over the intermediate term, this helps to reduce incidents of swelling as trapped fluids will be whisked away - reducing pressure on blood vessels.
Using the TShellz Wrap® is truly a unique experience. Within moments of applying a treatment to your injured tendon, you can feel the healing sensation due to the increase in blood flow deep within the area. During a treatment, and for quite some time after you finish, the treated area will feel relaxed and less painful. It's a very soothing sensation and extremely effective.
Using a TShellz Wrap® will not expose you to the risk of causing further harm to soft tissue like you can when using rigorous exercise. The TShellz Wrap® accomplishes the goal of enhanced blood flow without the need for intensive exercise and as such reduces your risk of re-injury.
Professional athletes and those in the medical field have been users of the technology for decades - it really hasn't been until recently that companies like ours introduced the treatment devices to the home user.
We recommend the use of a TShellz Wrap®:
TShellz Wraps® contain a unique Carbon Fiber Energy Pad which is flexible and will shape to conform to your body. This Energy Pad emits a uniform wave of perfectly safe energy over its entire surface. This energy is absorbed by soft tissue in the treatment area, opening blood vessels, resulting in an increase in blood flow. Increased blood circulation is what your body needs to accelerate the healing of soft tissue and this is why we recommend the TShellz Wrap®.
The TShellz Wrap® is an FDA Registered Medical Device and is suitable for use in therapeutic clinics and FROM HOME. It is completely safe for people and patients to use for themselves.
The technology found in a TShellz Wrap® has been used for decades in the worlds of professional and amateur sports - a contributing factor as to why athletes seem to recover from injuries so quickly.
Have you ever wondered by an athlete can return to activity after 3 or 4 weeks following a soft tissue injury - while your average person takes much longer to return back to normal? The secret isn't really that much of a secret - it involves consistent treatments (meaning multiple times a day) using a treatment like the TShellz Wrap® to stimulate blood flow to the injured tissues. Most athletes have the luxury of using in-house facilities many times per day.
How many us can afford the time and money to visit a clinic multiple times a day? Very few indeed. This is how you can gain some of the advantages that athletes enjoy in their injury recovery - by using a device like the TShellz Wrap® two or three times a day on a consistent basis.
We believe the TShellz Wrap® to be one of the most effective home treatments to increase localized blood flow in and around the treatment area.
We can promise that you will receive a product that is designed to be safe and does what it is supposed to do... reduce pain (as stated in "Therapeutic Heat and Cold", 4th edition. - Ed. Justus F. Lehmann, M.D., Williams, and Wilkin) temporarily increase length & flexibility of soft tissue (as stated in "Therapeutic Heat and Cold", 4th edition. - Ed. Justus F. Lehmann, M.D., Williams, and Wilkin) and aid your body in recovering from tendon, muscle and other soft tissue injuries via enhanced blood flow.
The unit plugs into a standard wall outlet to get its power. The nice thing about the power supply is that the same unit can be used in North America and overseas as well. It has the capability to operate between 110v and 230v.
The TShellz Wrap® has a special signal controller that can be set for 3 different power levels of application (3=High, 2=Medium, 1=Low). The cord is long enough that you can sit or lie comfortably and watch TV, read or surf the net while you're using it.
Treatments are max 30 minutes in duration and the device can be worn over clothing. This allows you to use the device at work, at home, or really anywhere you have access to an electrical outlet.
The most common question we receive from individuals prior to purchasing is - how many times a day should I be using my wrap and when should I be using it? While treatment plans will differ for each individual and their specific injury, there are general guidelines that should be adhered to.
The TShellz Wrap® would then be used:

If you suffer from a sprained ligament, pulled muscle, strained tendon, or even bruising - apply Arnica Infusion for quick relief of the pain.
Application of Arnica Infusion can be done up to a maximum of 4 times per day on a consistent basis to help bring about relief from various pains and aches.
Follow up your TShellz and Cold treatments with an application of Arnica Infusion. Combine the pain relieving benefits of Arnica Infusion along with the therapeutic benefits of the wraps to make your recovery go much more smoothly.
Do not apply Arnica Infusion within a 2 hour timespan before a TShellz Wrap® treatment.
Whether you decide to use the Arnica Infusion in conjunction with the T-Shell and other treatments - or if you decide to use the cream as a stand-alone product - you will not be disappointed with the results. We guarantee it.
Since you are reading this, you probably know that serious tendonitis or tendinosis injuries do not just disappear. Over time, they usually wreak havoc on other joints in the body due to lack of movement and over-compensation. Recovery takes a longer time for such chronic (long term) injuries, but proper healing is essential to regain strength and get you back to the activities you enjoy.
The longer your injury endures, the greater the risk of running into serious overcompensation injuries.
Anyone in need of rapid recovery and complete healing must consider a comprehensive treatment plan that includes an effective means to minimize swelling and inflammation yet also stimulate healing and tissue elasticity. We have found no better set of tools that can be used at home than this:
Conservative treatment tools just like these have been used successfully by thousands of tendinitis, tenosyovitis and tendinosis injury sufferers - just like you.
We believe the use of TShellz Wraps® for boosting blood flow to soft tissue for relief from tendonitis and soft tissue strain is one of the most under-utilized home treatment options available on the market today. We have client after client that have tried many options out there and have been amazed at how effective and fast the TShellz Wrap® treatment can relieve pain and increase blood flow in soft tissue.

We all know that if the injury was healed, the pain would go away but what about the opposite situation? If the pain is gone, does that mean the injury is better? Unfortunately, this is not always true.
Too many people only focus on suppressing pain symptoms while providing less attention to the true healing aspects of the body. Experiencing less pain, while obviously a good short-term goal, never equates to underlying healing. Scar tissue can remain for months after one gets to a point of being relatively pain-free. However, as long the weak and brittle scar tissue remains, you are susceptible to re-injury or re-aggravation. Certain motions or movements can cause the weaker tissue to easily tear - resulting in some reversal of the recovery up until that point.
This is why we recommend for people to continue with their doctor or therapist recommended exercises and to continue with mild treatments of the TShellz Wrap® for a period of time - to better ensure complete healing.
Ongoing treatments to enhance circulation are intended to soothe, relax and promote healing of damaged muscles and tendons. T•Shellz treatments will also allow your soft tissue to extend further due to the deep warming sensation created by the enhanced circulation to the treatment area. The more extensibile your tissues are, the less likely they are to strain or sprain.
We feel that the TShellz Wrap® is a highly underutilized aid for people suffering from tendon injuries - such as partial tears, tenosynovitis, strains, tendonitis, tendinopathy, tendinosis.
People tell us all the time, "I was told that if I rest for a few days, my tendon problem will disappear."
The truth is, tendonitis is often a culmination of numerous factors, which include repetitive stress, poor running gait, posture, and overcompensation issues resulting from other muscle and soft tissue ailments.
It may take weeks or months for these triggers to surface, but when they do, merely resting will not solve the underlying issues. You need to utilize options that actually treat the source of the pain and help reverse the damage that has been done.
Resting has a role to play, but it is only one small factor in a recovery plan.
