## Description

This MCP server provides clinicians and athletes with precise mechanical loading guidance for tendon rehabilitation. By analyzing current pain levels and the specific tendinopathy stage, it calculates safe load capacities and progression rates. Use `get_current_load_capacity` to find safe limits, `calculate_progression_plan` to schedule load increases, `generate_isometric_parameters` for pain-modulating holds, and `estimate_return_timeline` to predict readiness for activities like running or jumping.

## Tools

### generate_isometric_parameters
Provides specific parameters for isometric hold exercises

### calculate_progression_plan
Defines how to incrementally increase load over time

### estimate_return_timeline
Predicts the approximate timeframe for returning to a specific baseline activity

### get_current_load_capacity
Determines the maximum safe mechanical load for the tendon based on current physiological status

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the safe load capacity for my Achilles tendon if I am in the Reactive stage with a pain level of 4?
```

**Response:** 
```
The maximum safe load for your Achilles tendon is 150 Newtons, with a recommended intensity of 60% and a safety buffer of 15%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I am currently loading my Patellar tendon at 100 Newtons. How should I progress next week if my pain is 2 and I am in the Dysrepair stage?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your next load increment should be 10 Newtons, with a weekly frequency of 3 sessions and a suggested volume of 3 sets of 10 repetitions.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Give me an isometric protocol for my Quadriceps tendon. I am in the Reactive stage with a pain level of 6.
```

**Response:** 
```
Perform isometric holds for 45 seconds, for 5 repetitions across 3 sets, at a target intensity of 50%.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I know if my load is safe?**
You can use the `get_current_load_capacity` tool to determine the maximum safe mechanical load based on your current pain level and tendinopathy stage.

**Can this help with pain management?**
Yes, the `generate_isometric_parameters` tool provides specific hold durations and intensities designed to help modulate pain during reactive stages.

**When can I return to running?**
The `estimate_return_timeline` tool predicts the approximate number of weeks required to return to specific activities like running based on your clinical status.
