“I loved dancing, but recently, each move left me wincing from a stabbing pain behind my heel. The joy of movement turned into fear of injury, until I found out the cause was Achilles tendonitis.”
Achilles tendonitis is the inflammation or degeneration of the Achilles tendon, the fibrous tissue that connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, typically caused by repetitive stress or overuse.
When to Seek Help:-
At Jeevaniyam, recovery and management are guided by our Jeevashakthi approach — a multi-stage blend of modern medicine, Ayurveda, AI-supported rehabilitation, targeted therapies, family involvement, and yogic practices. Like a carefully coordinated plan where each stage relieves tendon strain, reduces inflammation, and strengthens the calf and foot muscles, we provide the right care at the right time to relieve heel and tendon pain, improve ankle and foot mobility, and prevent recurrence. Our goal is to help you regain confidence in walking, running, jumping, and performing daily activities, even in cases that have long caused discomfort or limited movement.
