    After two failed Physical Therapists and all of their treatments....THIS is the only thing that helped my achilles tendon. It has been two years since I did it, and it has never returned. THESE GUYS ARE THE BEST.

    I’ve been really struggling with this for a while - followed this advice and now, 3 months later, I can run 6 miles pain free! Thank you
  • Came to leave a comment that I hurt my ankle in March- I walked and walked and incorporated your stretches and then moved to your strength exercises. Drastically better. I still do them knowing that it will just come back if I slack off. Thanks for getting me running again pain free!

    Bob and Brad the two most famous physical therapist on the Internet 🎵🎶
  • Thank God for t'internet. Thank God for YouTube and Thank God for Bob n Brad. I come back time and again for all our little injuries.
  • Thank you so much for the bottom of my heart... The last 30 years I could not run or walk propelry, as exactly you describe in the beginning of your video and that's why I stopped sports... And then came you (your video)... And I am free from every pain and disability and back active again in sports...

    I stepped into the batter's back foot depression in the batter's box last night, I almost lost my footing but completed the play. The damage was done and my right Achilles tendon seized up as soon the game was over. You two give such great advice and guidance when it comes to helping us heal our physical injuries through exercise and stretching. Great presentations 🤩
  • I have been meaning to come back to this video just to comment. I have been dealing with sore achilles tendons since I was a kid and this technique fixed my pain. It took a couple weeks before I started seeing any improvement but then it seemed to really take-off. I am blown away a simple self massage took care of an issue that has been bothering me for over 30 years. Thanks for sharing this, I really don't have the words to convey my gratitude.

    Thank you Bob and Brad! Achilles Tendonitis can be a relatively minor thing if it is treated properly -- but you need to know how to treat it properly. You have shown me how to make a good start on my heel's healing process, so thank you.
  • @onefoot7
    actually, you have fixed my broken heart gentlemen
  • @kathyburks3242
    Oh thank you! This is immensely helpful. Heel has been killing me! Doc set up exrays last week. Achilles Bone spur. I work on a college campus with a lot of walking every day. I did your exercises and it feels better already! PT Rocks Stars!

    1:30 pinching tendon explained 3:05 ice it 4:16 a couple minutes, 3 times a day. Try to get 15 minutes total. Start slow. 5:25 stretches after 3 days of pinching
  • @melissameans145
    Thanks Bob & Brad, for educating us and providing us with a wonderful resource. I am a FNP and refer my patients to your videos all the time when they can’t afford in-person PT.
  • @ribonuclic9875
    You people saved me. God bless you 😭. I am an athlete and i lost my abilities after suffering from this Achilles tendinitis for past two years and just after i watched your video i did the exercise and felt much better
  • @emcmorales
    Oh my gosh. I was looking for treatment for Achilles tendinitis and came across your video. You guys are adorable! Kudos on your videos. Love it
  • @emre563
    I was suffering achilis tendonitis for almost 3 months. I visited doctor, took pills, applied ice regularly but got limited improvment in pain. I have tried methods in this video and applied all steps punctually. Result is amazing. just in one week, my pain reduced almost %90. I have used no pills or pomads. Just used my body's power to heal. Thnak you sommuch guys. Great JOB!
  • I quit going to PT for tendonitis because I would leave the place in so much pain I could barely walk. They didn't do what you are showing on this video. In fact, they did to my ankle what you said, "do not do". No wonder I was in pain. I learned more from your video than what the doctor told me. Thank you so much. I am now on the way towards healing with your methods. PS: I did your PT for a bad shoulder a few years ago and it's great now. Truly, you guys are the best PT docs ever and again a huge thank you!
