The Problem
Most tendon injuries aren’t from one event. They build over time due to repetitive load, poor mechanics, weakness, or incomplete healing.
Traditional treatments often fail because rest doesn’t fix the problem, steroids may weaken tissue, and generic PT often misses the root cause.
The Solution:
A Precision, Algorithm-Based Approach
At Utah Tendinopathy Clinic, we use a structured clinical algorithm:
1
Accurate Diagnosis
Advanced musculoskeletal ultrasound and tissue-specific evaluation.
2
Load & Movement Analysis
Biomechanics, strength deficits, and kinetic chain evaluation.
3
Targeted Treatment Plan
Based on severity, chronicity, and goals.
4
Regenerative + Rehab Integration
Restore tissue health and prevent recurrence.
Precision Tendon Care &
Performance-Driven Recovery

Dr. Engelen was absolutely fantastic. He was able to get me in within a week or two. He spent extra time explaining the procedures and making sure he answered all my questions. Highly recommend!
