Physiotherapy for Elbows
You don't have to play tennis or golf to have tennis elbow or golfers elbow. We identify the cause of your pain and treat it with strapping, acupuncture, stretches and forearm strengthening. Shockwave therapy can also help common elbow conditions, ask us today.
What does a consultation involve?
- A detailed history of your problem, activities and general health
- A physical assessment, for which you may need to remove some outer clothing (a chaperone is available on request)
- A tailored management plan for your condition
- Referral for further investigations or specialist assessment if needed, liaising with your GP where required
Elbow tendinopathy, known as tennis or golfers elbow
An inflammation within the tendon or its insertion. Tennis elbow sits on the outside of the elbow, golfers elbow on the inside, sometimes referring into the forearm. Repeated wrist movements, DIY, gripping sports or an injury can set it off; sometimes the pain arises from the neck.
