About Tendons and a Proposed New Treatment

Tendons are piezoelectric. Therefore they mostly see stretching forces which produce a negative charge on their surface. That then triggers a proccess whereby the tendon thickens or fills is slight tears.I have used this natural process to speed up healing of partial tears. But that got me thinking about how tendons stretch to improve range of motion. Then I realized that that must be done through cell division. And I knew, from some work by the Germans, that cell division can be triggered by the frequency of photons released when cells die. This frequency has been determined to be in the 20MHz range which may be why ultrasound has some beneficial effects.But I don’t know anybody who is using this information to improve sports performance or in rehab. A 20MHz signal directed at the tendon should trigger cell division in that area. I don’t have the time to pursue this right now but it seems woorth following up on. It seems to me that the effects would take some time to become noticeable since you are waiting for cells to divide.
