Patellar Tendonitis & Jumper's Knee Treatment in Solana Beach
SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy — non-surgical, drug-free care.
Patellar tendonitis — better known as jumper's knee — is a chronic overload injury of the tendon that connects the kneecap to the shin. SoftWave is one of the most evidence-backed non-surgical treatments available for this stubborn tendinopathy.

- Pain just below the kneecap
- Sharp pain with jumping, squatting, or stairs
- Stiffness at the start of activity that loosens, then returns
- Tenderness when pressing on the patellar tendon
- Pain that lingers despite rest, ice, and stretching
- Jumping sports (basketball, volleyball, CrossFit)
- Sudden spikes in training load
- Tight quads and weak hips
- Chronic patellar tendinosis with limited blood flow
How SoftWave Helps Patellar Tendonitis
SoftWave stimulates angiogenesis and collagen remodeling in the patellar tendon — addressing the root cause of jumper's knee rather than masking symptoms with anti-inflammatories that only delay healing.
What to Expect
Most patients need 6–8 sessions paired with progressive loading. Many notice less morning stiffness and easier stairs within the first few visits.
