Tendinopathy involves inflammation in and around tendons, often resulting from injury. Low-level laser therapy, which uses monochromatic, coherent, short-wavelength light, has been used since the 1960s to treat tendon injuries. Though investigations are ongoing, some researchers exploring the success of this type of therapy for tendinopathy found that low-level laser therapy consistently shows promise in treating tendinopathy. Patients report improvements in pain, range of motion, and motor function. Combining laser therapy with exercise programs also yielded positive results. If you suffer from tendon pain in your feet or ankles, it is suggested that you make an appointment with a podiatrist to see if this type of treatment can help you.
