Understanding Tendonitis
Tendonitis, also known as tendonitis, is a common condition characterized by inflammation or irritation of a tendon, the thick cord that attaches muscles to bones.
According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, tendonitis affects millions of people each year, with common areas of occurrence including the shoulder, elbow, wrist, knee, and ankle.
Most Common Causes of Tendonitis
Overuse: Repetitive activities or movements, such as sports, typing, or manual labor, can lead to overuse injuries and subsequent tendonitis.
Aging: Tendons become less elastic and more prone to injury with age, increasing the risk of tendonitis, particularly in older adults.
Poor biomechanics: Improper body mechanics or technique during physical activities can place excessive stress on tendons, leading to inflammation and tendonitis.

I highly recommend Balance for all your health and longevity goals. I had damaged muscle from a trauma injury that had not healed in three years and through Shockwave and Balance’s comprehensive treatment approach, healed the damaged region. They are extremely customized in their care and it is always a wonderful overall experience.
I was recommended to Balance medical from a local friend here in Colorado as we are visiting from Costa Rica. It was suggested that it may help to have a session in the hyperbaric chamber to help adjust to the altitude.
The entire experience was educational and professional with both Dr Jesi and her husband Dr Jason explaining the process step by step and not only the benefits of what to expect but how your body functions and why this process would help me to climatize to the altitude.
A great experience and can say it really worked for me I was experiencing a slight headache and just kind of worn out. After the one-hour session I was revitalized and had renewed energy and my headache was gone. I have been hiking and climbing since here in the mountains and feel great.
Thank you very much Dr. Jesi and Dr. Jason for your help and professionalism what a great team!
I recently had Dr Jess treat my plantar fasciitis with shock wave therapy. The results are amazing! I had 4-5 treatments about 2 weeks apart. The results are not immediate, but within a few days I had so much relief and after a few treatments the difference is incredible! SO worth it!
10 years ago I broke my leg in two places and had 14 pins, two plates and bone graphed into my tib/fib/ankle, and was told I would deal with arthritis for the rest of my life. Being extremely active in sports, weight lifting, and with my profession I found that movement helped but was almost counter intuitive. I lost nearly 75% range of motion in the joint and became limited in certain abilities in addition to consistent discomfort. I'm now 4 months out from receiving PRP and cellular therapy from Jason, and i have seen a significant improvement in my ability to not only move the joint with gained ROM, but pain and discomfort is nearly non existent after strenuous activities. I used to wake up and find it hard to take the first few steps, which is no longer an issue. I highly recommend considering this treatment to anyone looking to either gain an advantage on maintaining a active lifestyle or simply live day to day with less pain.

Innovative Treatments for Tendonitis
Shockwave Therapy
Clinical studies have shown that shockwave therapy can effectively treat tendonitis by promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation. A study published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine demonstrated significant improvements in pain and function following shockwave therapy for Achilles tendonitis.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar utilize advanced shockwave therapy techniques to target the affected tendon, stimulate healing, and alleviate pain associated with tendonitis.
Chiropractic Care
Research suggests that chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate tendonitis pain and improve joint function. A study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics found that chiropractic manipulation resulted in significant reductions in elbow pain and disability in patients with lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow).
Our skilled chiropractors employ gentle, targeted adjustments to restore proper alignment and function, reducing inflammation and discomfort associated with tendonitis.
Soft TIssue Mobilization
Soft tissue mobilization techniques, such as massage therapy and myofascial release, can help alleviate tendonitis pain and improve range of motion. A systematic review published in the Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy demonstrated the efficacy of soft tissue mobilization in reducing pain and improving function in patients with tendonitis.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar offer personalized soft tissue mobilization treatments to address muscular imbalances, reduce inflammation, and promote healing of the affected tendon.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP therapy has emerged as a promising treatment for tendonitis, with studies showing significant improvements in pain and function. A meta-analysis published in Sports Medicine reported favorable outcomes for PRP injections in patients with chronic tendinopathies.
Our PRP therapy treatments utilize concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate tissue repair and accelerate healing of the injured tendon, providing long-term relief from tendonitis symptoms.
Stem Cell Injections
Emerging research suggests that stem cell therapy may offer benefits for tendonitis by promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation. A study published in The American Journal of Sports Medicine reported improvements in pain and function in patients with chronic tendinopathy treated with mesenchymal stem cell injections.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar offer advanced stem cell therapy options to support tendon health and alleviate pain associated with tendonitis, helping you regain mobility and function.
