Ligament & Tendon Problems – Treatment in London

Ligament and tendon issues can make everyday movements uncomfortable and slow down your routine. Whether it’s a strained ligament from a sudden twist or a tendon problem caused by overuse, these injuries benefit from early support to avoid long-term stiffness or recurring pain.

At CoreFlex Physio, your treatment is delivered by a CSP and HCPC registered Chartered Physiotherapist, giving you care that’s thorough, personalised, and focused on helping you get back to normal activities as soon as possible.

We assess the root cause of your pain, guide you through a safe recovery plan, and use proven techniques—including Shockwave Therapy when appropriate—to ease discomfort and improve strength.

Common Ligament & Tendon Problems We Treat

Sprained ligaments (ankle, knee, wrist, shoulder)
Tendinopathy (Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff, biceps, wrist)
Ligament strains from sports or sudden movements
Recurrent tendon pain during activity
Post-injury weakness or instability
Pain linked to overuse or poor biomechanics

Specialist Treatment for Ligament & Tendon Issues

Our approach focuses on improving stability, reducing pain, and helping you regain confidence in movement. We use tailored exercise plans and hands-on techniques to support the healing process while protecting the injured area.

Treatment may include:
  • Soft tissue therapy
  • Joint stabilisation exercises
  • Tendon-loading programmes
  • Mobility and strengthening work
  • Electrotherapy Equipment
  • Shockwave Therapy (when suitable)
  • Taping or bracing for added support
  • Advice to prevent flare-ups and future injuries

Enhancing Every Stage of Recovery

We guide you from the early healing stage right through to full strength.
Expect a plan that gradually progresses as your tendon or ligament becomes more resilient, helping you return to daily activity, work, and sport safely.

Our Three-Step Treatment Process

1
Assessment & Diagnosis
We take a clear look at the injury, your movement patterns, and any contributing factors. This helps us confirm whether the issue is ligament- or tendon-related and what stage of healing you're in.
2
Personalised Treatment Plan
Your physiotherapist will build a treatment programme suited to your lifestyle and goals. This may include hands-on therapy, strengthening work, and options like Shockwave Therapy to support tendon repair.
3
Ongoing Support & Prevention
We track your progress and adjust the plan as you regain strength. You’ll get guidance on preventing re-injury, improving stability, and maintaining healthy tendon and ligament function long term.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between a ligament and a tendon injury?
Ligaments connect bone to bone and often get injured through sudden twists or impact. Tendons connect muscle to bone and usually become painful from overuse or repetitive load.
How long does recovery take?
Tendons can take longer to heal than muscles, and ligament sprains vary depending on severity. Most clients notice steady improvement with consistent treatment.
Is Shockwave Therapy helpful for tendon injuries?
Yes, it can be very effective for stubborn tendinopathies such as Achilles, rotator cuff, or patellar tendon issues.
Do I need imaging before coming?
Not usually. A thorough physiotherapy assessment often gives us enough information to start treatment.
Can strengthening make tendon pain worse?
If done correctly, strengthening is one of the best ways to improve tendon health. We guide you through controlled, progressive exercises so it’s safe and effective.
