Conditions we treat
Achilles Tendon Pain Treatment in Surrey, BC
Stiff, sore Achilles first thing in the morning or after a run? Achilles tendinopathy is common in active people — and stubborn if it's ignored.
← All conditions
What it feels like
- Pain and stiffness at the back of the heel or lower calf
- Worst with the first steps of the day and after activity
- Tenderness or a thickened feel along the tendon
- Eases as you warm up, then returns afterward
Why it happens
The Achilles tendon takes a beating with every step, run and jump. A spike in activity, tight calves, or unsupportive footwear can push it into a chronic, under-healing state — and it won't recover on rest alone.
How we can help
We start by understanding what's overloading your Achilles, then build a care plan around your specific case. Tendons respond to the right kind of gradual load over time, so your plan is reviewed and progressed as you improve. We'll be honest about timelines — Achilles recovery rewards patience, and it's worth doing properly.
Most extended health plans cover treatment, and we direct bill — including ICBC and WorkSafeBC claims. Unsure where to start? Call to book a free 15-minute phone consult.
