TenJet Procedure

Minimally Invasive Treatment for Tendon Problems (including Tendonitis and Tendonosis) in the Shoulders, Elbows, Ankles, Knees and elsewhere

Tendons are connective tissues that attach muscle to bone. Tendon injury or deterioration can cause chronic pain, reduced strength, and hinder mobility. If rest and anti-inflammatories do not result in healing, removal of the damaged tissue is the next step. TenJet technology focuses a high-velocity stream of saline to precisely resect and remove only the damaged tissue. This procedure is highly recommended for tennis players, golfers, runners, and those active in sports.

TenJet is safe and effective for tendon repair in all areas of the body, including shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, and ankles. It is also commonly used to treat plantar fasciitis and problems with the Achilles tendon. It is a minimally invasive, outpatient procedure that uses only a local anesthetic and can be completed in less than 30 minutes.
