Tennis Elbow & Golfer's Elbow Treatment

Don’t be misguided, tennis elbow or golfers elbow doesn’t just affect athletes and sport enthusiasts (particularly to those specific sports), it can be caused by a variety of reasons, which includes trauma or overuse.

Tennis elbow (or Lateral Epicondylitis) is a condition that affects the tendons that attach to the bone around the outside (lateral) part of the elbow. The purpose of tendons are to latch the muscles onto the bone, therefore pain can be caused if these tendons tear or get inflamed and can aggravate the muscle extensor carpi radialis brevis, which is the one that helps extend and stabilises the wrist.

An activity that causes stress on the tendon attachment repetitively can cause tennis elbow, and these stresses can come from both sports and other energetic activities, such as holding a racquet, paint brush, plumbing etc. According to research, up to 30% of repetitive hand workers suffer from tennis elbow and up to 40% of tennis players.

A sudden force to the elbow can cause swelling around the tendon that can lead to degeneration, which means that trauma to the elbow is often considered a likely factor as a cause of tennis elbow.

People with tennis elbow can also experience motor system impairments, which means that small changes in the muscle surrounding the elbow have been made that will influence your ability to use them properly. Due to the fact that adjustments have been made in your muscle fibres, you might still have the same strength but it takes a bit longer to reach your maximum because of pain caused.

Some kind words from our clients

Saw Aaron today for slightly ingrowing toenails and he was excellent. Didn't hurt at all. Booked up again for my next visit. I definitely recommend him.

Having suddenly been incapacitated after putting one foot in front of the other I sought inmediate help from Hannah at AP. It turned out I had a suspected bulging disc which was horrifically painful. I was treated with acupuncture and a series of stretches over a few weeks, the pain subsided within the first week and the next few sessions really losened up my back so I was able to concentrate on stretching. I have been pain free and back to normal for many weeks now. If you get a problem I strongly recommend you go straight to the professionals to get it sorted I cant thank them enough
