The Benefits of Physiotherapy for Tennis Elbow

 


1) Pain Relief - various techniques can help reduce pain in the elbow such as manual therapy, dry needling, ultrasound, and electrical stimulation.

2) Improved Range of Motion - Tennis elbow can cause stiffness in the elbow joint. Physiotherapy can help by stretching the muscles and tendons around the elbow.

3) Increased Strength - Physiotherapy can help strengthen the muscles in the forearm and wrist, which can help prevent future injuries.

4) Improved Function - Physiotherapy can help improve your ability to perform daily activities, such as lifting objects and gripping.

5) Reduced Risk of Recurrence - Physiotherapy can help identify and address any underlying postural or biomechanical problems that may be contributing to your tennis elbow. This can help reduce your risk of developing tennis elbow again in the future.
