First things first, let’s square dance with the definition of Tendonitis.

Simply put it is the inflammation of tendons. Tendons are the fibrous tissues that connect muscles to bones, playing a crucial role in the body’s movement and stability.

When these tendons become inflamed, a condition known as tendonitis develops. The causes are diverse, ranging from overuse and repetitive motion to age-related degeneration.

Tendons are like the ropin’ skills of your body, working hard day in and day out. But every now and then, they throw a little fit, and that’s when the tendonitis begins.

Cue the Tenjet Hoedown: Revolutionizing Pain Management

Now, imagine a scenario where your tendons are inflamed like a Texas summer’s day! And this device offers you a treatment that has you in and out. Enter the Tenjet – a high-tech lasso with a trick up its sleeve. It’s like a concentrated vacuum suction combined with the finesse of a country line dance.

How the Tenjet Two-Step Works:

The Tenjet procedure starts with a tiny, tiny incision – barely visible. Once that’s done, the Tenjet device gently removes the necrotic tendon tissue like a sheriff cleaning up the town.

The Minimally Invasive Hoedown:

This procedure is a targeted process that doesn’t rely on guesswork; Tenjet has got a trusty sidekick called the minimally invasive ultrasound. It’s like a high-tech compass that guides the physician to the exact spot where the trouble’s brewin’. With the tissue visualized on the ultrasound, the Tenjet device performs a square dance of sorts, removing the unwanted debris with surgical precision.
