Tennis Elbow & Golfers Elbow Physiotherapy
Personalised treatment plan
Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis) and Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis) are common overuse injuries affecting the tendons around the elbow joint.
Despite their names, these conditions are not limited to sports players. They are common in people who perform repetitive tasks such as manual work, gardening, typing, or DIY activities.
What Do Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow Cause?
Both conditions can lead to:
- Pain and tenderness around the elbow joint
- Stiffness and weakness in the forearm and grip
- Difficulty performing everyday tasks like lifting, gripping, or carrying objects
- Pain that worsens with repetitive movements or certain sports activities
If left untreated, symptoms can become chronic and limit your ability to perform work or recreational activities.
