Tennis Elbow & Elbow Pain

Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is a condition that causes pain on the outer side of the elbow due to repetitive strain on the tendons. Often seen in athletes, especially tennis players, the condition can also affect those in professions that require repetitive arm movements, such as painters and carpenters. Symptoms can include pain, tenderness, and weakness in the elbow and forearm. Chiropractic treatments for tennis elbow focus on relieving pain, reducing inflammation, and restoring joint mobility, often incorporating techniques such as physical therapy, joint adjustments, and anti-inflammatory therapies.

Elbow pain, in general, can be caused by several factors, including overuse, trauma, or medical conditions like arthritis. The pain can vary in severity and may affect either side of the elbow, depending on the underlying issue. Common causes of elbow pain include tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, bursitis, tendonitis, and arthritis. Chiropractic care offers a comprehensive approach to treating elbow pain, using non-invasive techniques to reduce inflammation, improve joint function, and support the healing process.
