Tendinitis is an inflammation of a tendon, a group of sturdy fibers that connects a muscle to the nearby bone. Another commonly used term for tendinitis is tendinopathy. Tendinitis is generally caused by injury, trauma, or overuse of a joint. Tendinitis may be referred to by a more specific description depending on the location where it occurs, such as Achilles tendinitis or tennis elbow. The elbows, heel, shoulder and wrist are common locations for tendinitis. Anyone may experience tendinitis, although the risk of developing tendinitis may be increased in older populations, people who do not exercise regularly, or people who experience excessive rotations of a joint. Some conditions that affect the entire body, such as rheumatoid arthritis or diabetes, can increase the risk of developing tendinitis.
Chinese herbal medicine together with acupuncture improves blood flow, which in turn speeds healing. It stimulates immune cells that repair and heal the area of inflammation. The increase in blood flow improves the delivery of nutrients to the area. Finally, acupuncture can stimulate lymphatic flow as well. This helps reduce swelling and can remove the chemicals that cause inflammation.
