Summary
This study tests whether a device that creates a pulsed magnetic field (PEMF) can reduce pain and improve function in people with mid-portion Achilles tendinopathy. About 200 adults with ultrasound-confirmed tendon thickening and low symptom scores will receive either active PEMF or a sham device, plus standard exercises. They will be followed for one year to compare outcomes.
