EPI — Percutaneous electrolysis in Barcelona

The reference technique for tendinopathies that have stopped responding. Galvanic current delivered by needle, guided by ultrasound, straight into the degenerated tissue.

A chronic tendon stops behaving like inflamed tissue and becomes degenerated, which is why rest and anti-inflammatories stop working. EPI triggers a controlled reaction in that specific area that restarts the regeneration process. It is always applied under ultrasound, because treating a tendon blind makes no sense: we need to see exactly where the lesion is. Strength work follows, and that is what makes the result hold.

What it is for

Patellar and Achilles tendinopathy
Tennis elbow and shoulder tendinopathy
Plantar fasciitis that has not settled with conventional treatment
Muscle injuries with fibrosis or scar tissue

Who it is for

Athletes with months of tendon pain who have already tried rest, conventional physiotherapy and anti-inflammatories.
