There's no one-size-fits-all treatment for Achilles tendonitis/tendinopathy. However, there is a treatment approach that works best for most people, and this is backed up by research. In this video, Treat My Achilles co-founder Maryke Louw explains this approach. She also cautions against other treatments that are useless or may harm your Achilles tendon even further. • 👉 The video mentions heel lift shoe inserts to help your Achilles pain to calm down.
