Suffering From Tendon Pain?

Tendon pain can make it hard to carry even the simplest of daily tasks. Tendons are strong, flexible bands of connective tissue that connect muscle to bone and transmit energy needed to allow muscles and bones to create fluid movement. Most tendon injuries are the result of gradual wear and tear to the tendon from overuse or aging related issues. These injuries can generate micro-tears within the collagen fibers of the tendon. When a tendon is unable to heal properly scar tissue often forms which can cause pain, numbness/tingling, burning, restrictions in your range of motion, weakness , etc.

     Wesley Chapel Spine and Sports Medicine now works with HydroCision to provide you with premium care using Advanced Surgical Technology. Our Physicians can now take advantage of the TenJet System that allows them to directly target the cause of your tendon pain. This state-of-the-art system uses a dual channel, 12-gauge device designed to administer a controlled rapid stream of saline that separates healthy tendons from diseased ones.

     This patented design utilizes the principles of flow dynamics to form an in-line Venturi suction effect to remove diseased tissue, thereby allowing changes in tendon pathology. The TenJet procedure is typically not painful and patients usually only feel mild soreness following the procedure. The TenJet procedure is an outpatient treatment administered with a local anesthetic and lasts for about 15 minutes. There is no need for sutures or stitches as the TenJet is only minimally invasive and is covered by most insurance providers. Individual results vary but typically patients can return to full activity within weeks of the procedure.

      Rather than trying to bury your symptoms under a pile of prescriptions or chance high risk surgery, our double Board Certified Physician in Interventional Pain Management and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Our doctors, takes the procedure even further by combining one of our many Regenerative Procedures to ensure maximum results are achieved. At Wesley Chapel Spine and Sports Medicine you can combine TenJet with Stem Cells, PRP, Exosomes, or Amniotic Fluid Allografts which encourage the body’s own cells to help facilitate the healing process and ensures a much higher success rate.
