1. Teaching the proper way to walk will be the important factor in keeping the foot in the right position.
2. Walking on tiptoes causes the tendon to shorten, causing more damage.
3. This technique is not used with Achilles tendon issues.
4. Walking on the lateral boarder will help strengthen the tendon.
