Bursitis & Tendonitis In Itasca & Elk Grove Village, IL

Natural, Non-Invasive Relief for Joint Pain and Overuse Injuries

At Quest Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we provide effective, drug-free solutions for bursitis and tendonitis—two common causes of joint pain and limited mobility. These conditions often develop from repetitive stress, poor biomechanics, or underlying joint imbalances—and without proper care, they can linger or worsen over time.

Through precise chiropractic techniques, advanced therapies, and personalized care, we help reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and get you back to doing what you love—pain-free.

Understanding Bursitis and Tendonitis

Though often confused, bursitis and tendonitis are distinct—but commonly linked—conditions:

• Bursitis occurs when the bursa, a fluid-filled sac that cushions your joints, becomes inflamed.
• Tendonitis is inflammation or irritation of a tendon, the thick cord connecting muscle to bone.

Both conditions can be triggered by repetitive motion, poor posture, overuse, trauma, or misalignment of the spine and joints.

Common Symptoms

• Pain near a joint, especially with movement
• Swelling, tenderness, or warmth over the joint
• Stiffness or limited range of motion
• Discomfort at rest or during sleep
• Weakness in the affected limb
• Pain that worsens with activity or specific movements

Common sites include the shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, and Achilles tendon.
