Understanding Tennis and Golfer's Elbow
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) and golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis) are common conditions caused by overuse or repetitive motions. These injuries often result in inflammation and microtears in the tendons, leading to pain and stiffness. While rest can help, physical therapy is often the key to long-term recovery and prevention.
How Does Physical Therapy Help Tennis Elbow?
Physical therapy for tennis elbow is designed to alleviate pain, restore mobility, and strengthen the muscles and tendons in your arm. A comprehensive physical therapy program typically includes:
-
Manual Therapy Techniques: Targeted treatments to improve circulation and reduce tension in the affected area.
-
Tennis Elbow Physical Therapy Exercises: Strengthening and stretching exercises to rebuild tendon resilience.
-
Tennis Elbow Physiotherapy Protocol: Structured progression to ensure a safe and effective recovery.
