Tennis / Golfers Elbow

You don’t have to play tennis or golf to suffer from this condition. Named so due to the increased incidents of medial and lateral elbow pain, within these sporting populations, office workers and carpenters can as easily be affected.

The most common cause of this condition is damage to the tendons that control the wrist flexors and extensors. Increased strain on these tendons cause micro tears to occur into the tendon, thus creating an inflammatory response and pain.

Rehabilitation of this condition often involves analysing your job, sport or hobby to recommend changes to form and function.

Shockwave therapy and a prescriptive loading regime often offer great benefit when trying to solve this often long standing injury.
