Achilles tendon

The Achilles tendon is often short (high-heels wearers please note!) and/or tight. This video shows some tips for dealing with a troublesome Achilles. If just stretching, you can ignore the massage bit at the start – if you need it your therapist will have done this already (and you’ll know about it!). You may also be asked to do calf stretches as they are often tight as well.
