Stones against tendinitis

Definition : Tendinitis is a painful inflammation of the tendon. It is often the result of repeated actions or intense efforts which cause the micro-rupture of tendon fibers. It first manifests itself as a burning sensation, and particularly affects the following joints: elbow, wrist, heel, knee, shoulder. If left untreated, tendinitis can become chronic. It is a common condition among athletes, but also among musicians where it can be the result of a poorly adapted gesture or position.

In this article, we will see which lithotherapy stones and crystals are recommended to treat and relieve tendinitis. Obviously, these minerals must be used as complementary therapy and cannot replace the treatment prescribed by your doctor. Note, among other things, that prolonged rest for the tendon is necessary, even if the pain has disappeared.

Finally, let us remember that prevention remains the best remedy against tendinitis. We can give here three essential tips for athletes and musicians: 1) drink water before, during, and after exercise, 2) warm up correctly, and 3) stop exercising at the first signs of pain tendons.

Malachite

With its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to relieve pain, malachite is the stone best suited to treating tendinitis. You can apply the stone directly to the painful tendon, or make an elixir. A particularly effective way to relieve tendinitis is to bandage the stone in the painful area for 24 hours. If the pain persists, repeat the application.

The Stibnite

Stibnite (also called “stibine” or “antimony”) is renowned for its restorative properties for muscles and tendon tears. It also helps keep the muscles in a relaxed state conducive to tendinitis treatment. You can carry it with you at all times when you are experiencing tendonitis symptoms, preferably not far from the area affected by this condition.

Other stones recommended for treating tendonitis: green calcite, galena, pyrite, magnetite, yellow amber , lapis lazuli , rose quartz , blood jasper.
