ASTYM treatment is a physical therapy treatment that
regenerates healthy soft tissues (muscles,
tendons, etc.), and eliminates or reduces unwanted scar tissue that
may be causing pain or movement restrictions.
ASTYM treatment is highly effective for restoring movement
and reducing pain from soft tissue injury/dysfunction,
and ASTYM even works when other approaches
routinely fail. One of the main reasons for
this is that ASTYM was designed to target the underlying cause of
many soft tissue...
ASTYM treatment routinely resolves chronic Achilles
tendinitis/tendonitis and Achilles tendon pain. Here an
experienced physical therapist talks about how a runner who had
suffered with chronic Achilles tendinitis for over 6 years finally
got cured with ASTYM treatment.
ASTYM is a highly effective Achilles tendonitis treatment because it was scientifically developed to actually regenerate soft tissues on a cellular level. It works fast (total treatments are usually completed in 6 weeks or...Read More »

Few things are more frustrating than having chronic plantar
fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis (also spelled Achilles
tendinitis). Here is the story of one patient who suffered
from Achilles tendon pain and plantar fasciitis, and tried
multiple treatments before she finally got better with ASTYM
at KORT physical therapy:
As an Achilles tendonitis treatment, ASTYM improves 94.7% of Achilles tendinitis (tendonitis), or Achilles tendinopathy cases. ASTYM also resolves plantar fasciitis well, with...Read More »

Plantar fasciitis causes a great deal of heel pain and
disability among athletes. As a sports medicine doctor, I
have seen thousands of athletes sidelined by plantar
fasciitis. Most patients will respond to standard treatments
for plantar fasciitis, which include:
ASTYM treatment
Autologous Blood Injections/Platelet Rich Plasma Injections
(controversial)
Corticosteroid Injection (controversial due to potential side
effects)
Electrical Stimulation and Iontophoresis
Extracorporeal Shockwave...

ASTYM treatment is effective in resolving many soft tissue
problems, including chronic tendinopathies, tendon
pain, tendon injury, stiffness, restricted movement, limited
function and other conditions associated with adhesions or scar
tissue that can occur after trauma or surgical intervention. It is
also quite effective on sprains, strains, and other acute and
sub-acute soft tissue injuries.
ASTYM treatment often works even when other approaches fail. One of the main reasons for this is that...Read More »
