Enthesopathy of the Achilles tendon is a pathological condition of the tendon in the region from the place of its attachment to the calcaneus to the second centimeter of the tendon's length. About 6 % of people experience pain in the region of the Achilles tendon during their lifetime, and the clinical picture consists of a feeling of pain in the posterior heel region, just below the edge of the shoe, which is activated during walking or palpation, and ankle joint stiffness due to a longer period of rest. Therapeutic interventions for enthesopathy of the Achilles tendon are not precisely defined, but therapeutic guidelines have been determined to reduce symptoms. The most commonly applied physiotherapy intervention for this condition is stretching exercises, and it is also possible to carry out kinesitherapy in the form of eccentric and isometric exercises, physical therapy in the form of shock waves and therapeutic ultrasound, manual techniques, for example, deep friction massage or alternative methods, for example, dry needling. Research has shown that eccentric exercises, isometric exercises and shock waves have a positive effect on the course of treatment, while massage, therapeutic ultrasound and dry needling have no significant effect.
