The Alfredson protocol is a treatment for Achilles tendonitis that involves repeated eccentric heel drop exercises. In this exercise, the heel is slowly lowered off a step while the toes stay on the edge, applying controlled stress to the Achilles tendon to promote healing. It is widely regarded as the gold standard for treating Achilles tendonitis.
