At Weiss Wellness + Beauty, we offer the Tenex Health TX procedure, a clinically proven technology designed to treat tendonitis and plantar fasciitis without the need for traditional open or arthroscopic surgery. The Tenex procedure effectively decreases pain and improves overall functionality in areas such as the elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, and foot.
The Tenex Health TX technology uses ultrasound imaging and a tiny probe to target and remove damaged tendon tissue. This minimally invasive procedure addresses the root cause of pain rather than just masking symptoms with medication or injections. By precisely eliminating the damaged tissue, Tenex promotes healing and offers long-lasting relief.
1. Identification of Pain Source
Using ultrasound imaging, Dr. Weiss identifies the exact location of the damaged tendon tissue.
2. Local Anesthetic
The area is numbed with a local anesthetic, allowing you to remain awake and comfortable throughout the procedure.
3. Ultrasonic Energy Application
A gentle ultrasonic energy is used to safely break down and remove the damaged tissue. The procedure is minimally invasive, involving a small incision similar in size to a cortisone shot.
4. Completion
Once the damaged tissue is removed, a small adhesive bandage is applied, and no stitches are required.
The numbing process feels similar to a bee sting.
Most patients report feeling only slight pressure during the procedure, if anything at all.
The surrounding healthy tissue is left unharmed, ensuring a targeted and safe treatment.
After the procedure, patients can expect a rapid recovery process. With proper post-procedure care and adherence to Dr. Weiss’s guidelines, many individuals return to their regular activities in about six weeks. The Tenex procedure offers a significant improvement in pain levels and functionality, allowing patients to resume their active lifestyles.
