Therapeutic tendon massage

Tendons are a type of connective tissue that attach muscles to bones. Anatomically, tendons consist of tightly packed bundles of strong and elastic collagen fibers. Surprisingly, connective tissue is susceptible to various disorders that require medical attention.

What ailments are dangerous for tendons?

Most commonly, doctors diagnose tendinitis, which is inflammation of the tendons. The condition manifests with pain, discomfort during movement, and tenderness at the inflamed site upon palpation.
Tendovaginitis is also inflammation, but it affects the tendon sheaths.
Paratenonitis is inflammation of the membrane located directly adjacent to the tendons.
Dupuytren’s contracture is scar tissue on the tendon that gradually leads to joint restriction. It affects the tendons of the palms.

Inflammatory pathologies are treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, ice application, physiotherapeutic procedures, including massage. The technique of massage depends on the location of the affected tendons.
Massage serves several functions:

– lymphatic drainage;
– pain relief;
– anti-inflammatory effect.

Additionally, a well-performed procedure helps restore pain-free movement.
Patients who visit the Soul & Body clinic experience the healing effects of the procedure firsthand. Ten sessions, and tendon problems no longer bother the body.

Tendon Massage in Kyiv – Soul & Body

One of the uncomplicated non-drug ways to help tendons recover faster is massage.
In recent years, even facial tendon massage has become popular. It is called Rengyu, meaning “restorative.”
Our specialists are proficient in various types of massages, including those uncommon in our region, such as Eastern ones.
When it comes to working with tendons, we most often deal with the connective tissue of the knees, Achilles, and tendon helmets.

Each location requires unique skills and techniques, body positions, and manipulation times.

An interesting massage is the Achilles tendon massage. It is performed if a person has been injured or the tendon has become inflamed. Such massage is prescribed for better recovery in Kyiv.
Not very often do people receive massage of the popliteal tendon. However, this location is extremely important for comfortable movement, proper functioning of the muscles, ankle, and foot. Therefore, it’s worth remembering that there are tendons behind the knee, and they need care too.

The cost of tendon massage in Kyiv at the Soul & Body center

Each location requires the masseur to possess unique skills and abilities. Different durations are spent on different tendons: some may require only 10 minutes, while others may need 20 minutes. Therefore, it’s quite challenging to definitively state how much a session will cost.
