The best treatment for your Achilles tendon injury at Physiotherapy Iburg in Rotterdam

How can Achilles tendonitis develop?

Achilles tendonitis can be caused by wearing the wrong shoes, an abnormal position of the foot, unstable ankles, an incorrect movement pattern, overload or combinations of these.

Achilles tendonitis requires a multidisciplinary approach. Our physiotherapists work at Physiotherapy Iburg Remco Visser (podiatrist) closely together. In addition, our various treatment methods are used for these complaints.

Causes of an Achilles tendon injury

The Achilles tendon ensures, among other things, that you can walk. It is a kind of cable that transfers the force from the calf muscles to your heel bone. With an Achilles tendon injury, the Achilles tendon has become overloaded. This overload can be caused by repeated or prolonged strain, for example by walking or running. In addition, changing surfaces or shoes can cause overload.

Complaints of an Achilles tendon injury

The first sign of an Achilles tendon injury is often stiffness or pain in the tendon above your heel bone when you stand up. This pain usually disappears quickly initially. The Achilles tendon can be thickened and sometimes red. Afterwards the complaints may increase:

  • Stiffness and/or pain the morning after activity;
  • Stiffness/pain during warm-up and after activity;
  • Stiffness/pain during warm-up, which decreases but returns during and after the activity;
  • Constant complaints during activities and subsequent days;
  • Constant complaints during activities of daily life.

Why have Achilles tendon complaints treated?

Achilles tendon complaints are very annoying and can significantly affect your daily life. Why is it so important to treat these Achilles tendon complaints?

  • Reduce pain
  • Improve features
  • Improve overall quality of life

Physiotherapy is one of the most common and successful treatments for Achilles tendon problems. The physical therapist can help improve function, reduce pain, and improve overall quality of life. It is also important to take good care of your Achilles tendon. Find time to relax regularly and try to carry as little weight on your foot as possible. This way you can prevent or reduce Achilles tendon complaints.

Trusted by many

A month ago I came to Fysio Iburg with a groin injury. I have been dealing with this for a year, tried various treatments but unfortunately without results. However, after 3 treatments with Arnold my complaints disappeared. I am therefore very grateful to the practice for their expert treatments. This allows me to exercise again like before!
Milan Frank
Super good and knowledgeable help from Kate. Had a shoulder injury. I received good exercises and was free of injury/pain after a few weeks. Continue to do the exercises to keep the shoulder strong. I would recommend Physio Iburg Rotterdam.
Frank van Hemert
Had great treatment from Farid. Came in with severe back and shoulder pain, a combination of dry needling and old-fashioned cracking, the next day it went much better. Super!
Eelco Schuller
Very well and professionally helped with long-standing hip complaints. Clear explanation and friendly, pleasant practitioner. Short waiting times.
Antoine van Nassau
Due to working from home a lot, poor posture and stress, I had a lot of problems with my shoulder and neck. Together with Fysio Iburg I made a plan in which treatment and exercises have resulted in enormous improvements within a short period of time. I am very satisfied!
Loes Groenendijk
Since I have been treated at this practice, I have recovered from my injuries faster than with previous physiotherapists. Highly specialized people who provide many different types of treatments, a suitable treatment for every injury. Highly recommended!

Dry Needling
I am very satisfied with the treatment (dry needling) by Arnold at Physiotherapy Iburg. I can't believe that I got rid of all my complaints within 5 treatments, while I had already been treated by two other physiotherapists without results.
Suthes Balasooriyan
Supportive
Rehabilitated twice for a year with Joris after anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions. In addition to excellent physical guidance to make the knee as strong and stable as possible, he is also just a nice person to work with. In addition, always supportive of my (sports) goals, also during recovery.
Danny Reijs
Hands-on focused approach
I had a fall about 2 months ago and had a lot of shoulder problems. Arnold saw me struggling in the gym and asked if I had shoulder problems and then told me that he is a shoulder specialist. This was over the weekend and I was able to visit him the following Monday. The treatment is uncomfortable but with great results.
Gaby Veesaert
Dry needling
I had neck/shoulder complaints for months, had various physiotherapy and chiropractor treatments that did not benefit me. Until I came to Arnold, I only had 2 treatments, 1x dry needling and finaly strength free! Topper

Rowena
Dry needling
Very satisfied with the treatment! My long-term shoulder pain was significantly reduced within a day of the first dry needling treatment.
Martin de Mik
Back complaints
Excellent! I have/had a fairly complex complaint in my back after an inguinal hernia. I walked crookedly for a long time because of the pain and as a result scoliosis started to form. Meanwhile, my vertebrae and my hip were also stuck and could no longer be loosened. After one treatment by Annemieke, the cause was found and the necessary muscles were loosened.
Eelco Schuller
Old-fashioned cracking
Had great treatment from Farid. Came in with severe back and shoulder pain, a combination of dry needling and old-fashioned cracking, the next day it went much better. Super!
Pieter de Jong
Running analysis
Running analysis is highly recommended to improve your performance and prevent injuries. Back pain and right hip treated and loosened through intensive training. Received very good treatment and information about home exercises that I can do myself. The abdominal muscle exercises I learned have improved my performance and resolved complaints. I have now permanently included these exercises in my training program. Have broad knowledge.

Excellent practice. I was able to go very quickly and I benefited greatly from the treatment. I am especially enthusiastic about the dry needling. It is a painful treatment, but it really helps and Arnold Iburg is extremely skilled at it.
