Understanding Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is a painful micro-tearing or degeneration (tendinopathy) of the common extensor tendon, which attaches your forearm muscles to the outside of your elbow. It is primarily driven by repetitive gripping or wrist extension loads that exceed the tendon's tensile capacity.
This leads to localized inflammation, persistent outer elbow pain, and significant loss of grip strength. Our tennis elbow treatment focuses on unloading the reactive tendon using temporary strap bracing or ergonomic modifications, followed by targeted cellular recovery.
We utilize progressive loading protocols (isometric unloading, followed by eccentric and concentric wrist strengthening) to rebuild tendon fiber alignment. This restores your capacity to carry, grip, and return to racket sports or typing without pain.
