At CMS Physiotherapy, we specialize in the treatment of Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis), a painful condition that affects the tendons on the outside of the elbow. While itβs commonly associated with tennis players, Tennis Elbow can occur in anyone who performs repetitive arm and wrist movements. Whether you're a sports enthusiast, office worker, or manual laborer, our physiotherapy treatments are designed to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and restore strength and flexibility to your elbow. We offer personalized treatment plans that focus on targeting the underlying causes, improving mobility, and preventing future injuries.
Tennis Elbow is caused by overuse or repetitive strain on the forearm muscles and tendons near the elbow. This leads to inflammation and microtears in the tendons that connect the forearm muscles to the lateral epicondyle (the bony prominence on the outer side of the elbow).
Common Symptoms of Tennis Elbow:
Pain on the outer side of the elbow, which may radiate down the forearm
Tenderness and swelling near the lateral epicondyle
Pain when gripping objects, such as a tennis racket, or activities like turning a doorknob or holding a cup
Weakness in the forearm muscles, making it difficult to perform daily tasks
Stiffness and reduced range of motion in the elbow
We use a combination of advanced physiotherapy techniques to treat Tennis Elbow, aiming to reduce pain, restore function, and prevent recurrence:
πͺ Strengthening Exercises to rehabilitate the muscles around the elbow and forearm
β‘ Manual Therapy to release muscle tension and improve flexibility
π§ Eccentric Loading Exercises to promote tendon healing and strength
π§ Stretching and Soft Tissue Techniques to increase mobility and reduce stiffness
π§π¦½ Therapeutic Ultrasound and Electrotherapy for pain relief and tissue healing
π‘ Ergonomic Advice for posture and movement modifications to prevent further strain
ποΈβοΈ Taping Techniques (Kinesiology or Athletic Tape) to reduce tension on the elbow
