Explore the Benefits of Tenex

Developed at the Mayo Clinic, Tenex boasts a success rate of over 85% in alleviating tendon pain. This procedure entails a micro-incision, so small that it requires no stitches, ensuring minimal invasiveness and swift recovery.

Utilizing ultrasound imaging, the physician precisely identifies the damaged tissue and navigates the advanced TENEX MicroTip™ into the affected area. By selectively removing only the damaged tissue while preserving the healthy tendon, Tenex stimulates healing, facilitating a speedy return to normal activities.

When conservative treatments like physical therapy, cortisone injections, or medication fail to provide relief, patients often face the prospect of invasive surgery. With Tenex, however, there’s an alternative. Don’t endure chronic tendon pain any longer – schedule a consultation with our office today.
