Elbow Pain

Elbow Pain 26 Jul 2019

Recently we have treated a few cases of elbow pain. TennisElbowandGolfersElbow There are two common site for elbow pain, the outside edge of the elbow which is often an indication of tennis elbow or lateral epicondylitis and the inside edge of the elbow which is often an indication of glofer's elbow or medial epicondylitis.   With both of these conditions the pain may radiate up the arm and / or down along the forearm. Both conditions can be caused by precise wrist movements from using a mouse or keyboard.  As the name suggests tennis elbow can be caused by faulty backhand technique when playing tennis.  While golfer's elbow can be caused by poor technique when playing Golf or faulty forehand technique when playing tennis. In addition tennis elbow can be caused by carrying heavy shopping bags as it causes tension in the wrist extensors. Most of the cases we see are caused by long hours using computers.  The first thing we do is try and establish the cause of the pain, which can be tightness or spasm in the muscles of the forearm, neck or shoulders and then treat accordingly.  We can also show you simple stretches to stretch out the muscles of the forearm. What surprised us, and prompted me to write this blog is that they all the clients had just assumed that elbow pain was something that they just had to lived with.  In all the cases we dramatically reduced the pain and in most cases after a few treatments the clients were pain free!  So don't sit their in pain, book a massage.
