Tennis Elbow

Tennis Elbow | causes, symptoms, treatment

If you're suffering from tennis elbow, we understand the pain and limitations it can cause. Let us help you find relief and get back to enjoying the activities you love.

Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is a common condition that causes pain and inflammation in the tendons of the forearm muscles. Despite its name, tennis elbow can affect anyone, not just tennis players. It typically occurs due to repetitive motions and overuse of the forearm muscles, such as gripping, twisting, or lifting activities.

The symptoms of tennis elbow often include pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow, which can radiate down the forearm. Gripping objects or performing simple tasks like lifting a cup or shaking hands may become challenging and painful. In some cases, swelling and stiffness may also be present.

At Urban Massage and Wellness, our skilled massage therapists are experienced in treating tennis elbow and its associated symptoms. Massage therapy offers a holistic and effective approach to alleviate the effects of tennis elbow by addressing the root causes and promoting healing.

How can massage therapy be used to treat Tennis Elbow?

Massage therapy for tennis elbow focuses on reducing pain, decreasing inflammation, and improving overall muscle function. Our therapists utilize various techniques, such as deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and stretching exercises to target the affected muscles and tendons.

By applying targeted pressure and specific massage techniques, we aim to reduce muscle tension, release adhesions, and promote blood circulation to the affected area. This helps to decrease pain, improve range of motion, and accelerate the healing process.

In addition to the direct treatment of tennis elbow symptoms, our massage therapists also assess and address any contributing factors that may have led to the condition. This may include postural imbalances, muscle imbalances, or improper movement patterns. By addressing these underlying issues, we strive to prevent further injury and promote long-term recovery.

At Urban Massage and Wellness, we pride ourselves on providing individualized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. Our friendly and knowledgeable therapists will work closely with you to develop a comprehensive approach that combines massage therapy, self-care techniques, and lifestyle modifications to effectively manage and alleviate the effects of tennis elbow.
