I've been fighting Achilles Tendonitis on one side for about 2 months. I've tried resting it (not 100%), using ice, compression and elevation. Resting it helped a little after 2 to 3 days, but the first long walk or easy run after, it would flare up again. Ice was just momentary relief. Compression was practically useless and elevation was mildly helpful. I also did the recommended calf raises from time to time when it wasn't hurting too bad, but no end in sight. After watching this, I tried the massage technique with Voltaren combined with mild training and calf raises on rest days for about 2 weeks before a half marathon. It wasn't bad before the race, and after the race, it felt no worse. Just a couple days later, it feels like it's almost gone! The recommended massage and calf raises really helped. Thanks, Bob & Brad!

I was very careful to cross-fiber friction with my fingertips many times a day, including some hunger longer sessions. It improved so fast that I took it for granted and it came right back as I stopped babying it. So the last week I've been doing the same thing and at this moment it feels as good as it did after the two weeks. I'm still going walking and a little bit of very careful jogging, but I can feel it's tight, and I hope not to make the same mistake again.

I originally developed tendonitis in both legs about 20 years ago from cycling. This time it was triggered by excessive walking and dancing. I love both these activities and don't want to have to give up but was losing hope of any real improvement.. The difference is incredible - within 24-48 hours with the massage I was walking with MUCH less discomfort. Still not perfect but this is the first real improvement in the course of this bout. I've started the stretches on a step now and just SO impressed that these very simple measures really work!

You're only getting into the good stuff at the very end. Those massages and stretches are not the "absolute best" for this issue. Loading is the key to healing tendinopathies, which you're only doing with those slow eccentric calf raises. Even eccentrics aren't really better than other contractions for this, and what's now often used by physical therapists at the top of their game to treat tendinopathies is the heavy slow resistance protocol where you do 3-0-3 tempo work (3 seconds up, no pause at the top, 3 seconds down). The Alfredson protocol works, too, but heavy slow resistance seems to get a little better satisfaction from users.

I have to be honest. I am utterly amazed at how my heel could be in such throbbing pain and after I massaged the tendon and got the fibers where they should be. It's the closest thing to a miracle that I've ever experienced.

I had been dealing with this issue for 4 months and a Podiatrist told me to stretch it 5 times a day. That didn't work but after looking at your video and rubbing it out just 3 days made the pain go away with no soreness!!!! Thank you guys for your video 👌

Never heard of the cross fiber massage method. Very tender spot on my Achilles tendon when it is aggravated, which is l unpredictable to say the least. I just resorted myself to the fact that I'm gonna run in pain the rest of my life. After two minutes it seems like it's almost gone. I'll keep trying this technique. If this works, I will be amazed, thankful and very grateful. Thank you very much hallelujah. I have subscribed and allowed notifications.
