About This Information

This site is under construction!! Currently there is some inaccurate information presented here!! Come back later.

The author makes no guarantees or predictions about your recovery, and strongly suggests that you consult a qualified medical professional as soon as possible. This web site is meant as a supplement to specialised professional treatment.

Theoretically, there are many different things that could be wrong with you. Tendinitis is only one of many possible injuries. Nonetheless, if you have identified the activity that has caused your condition you should cease doing it immediately. There is a possibility that this might not be necessary, depending on the severity of your particular condition. However, it would be advisable to follow this advice until you are told otherwise by someone professionally qualified to comment on your particular type of injury.

This information was partially gathered through consultations with doctors and physiotherapists from the Parkwood Hospital Musician's Assessment Clinic and the Fowler Kennedy Sports Injury Clinic. Both of these institutions are located in London ON, Canada.

This web site's author, James Ecclestone, developed a serious case of tendinitis from an uninterrupted schedule of playing guitar, piano and videogames. James' tendinitis occurred in both arms from the elbows to the hands. His physical capabilities were eventually restored close to their original capacity through the diligent implementation of the information contained here. This information is a combination of theory learned from professionals and practical advice learned from experience. James considers it especially important for people to understand that there is no quick fix for tendinitis. An effective recovery can be complicated and demanding.
