A biopsychosocial approach to chronic mid- portion Achilles tendinopathy
A. M. Davidson
Acupuncture in Physiotherapy, Volume 28, Number 1, Spring 2016, 00–00

A 37- year- old male runner with a 7- month history of right- sided mid- portion Achilles ten-dinopathy was treated with physiotherapy and acupuncture treatment in a National Health Service outpatient department. Along with other conservative management options, acu-puncture was used as part of a holistic biopsychosocial approach. The treatment ultimately alleviated the pain and improved function, and helped the subject to achieve his agreed goal. New research is emerging that supports the use of acupuncture for tendon disorders; however, the exact treatment mechanism is not yet fully understood. Suggested mechanisms are discussed with reference to relevant literature

Reading the full paper, I see nothing of the 'biopsychosocial' model or approach.
