Tendonitis Elbow Treatment & Physical Therapy

If you are struggling with pain around the outside of the elbow, you are likely suffering from lateral epicondylitis, commonly known as Tennis Elbow, Tendonitis, or golfer’s elbow. Treatment is essential to prevent this problem from worsening and becoming a lifelong condition. It is caused by repetitive strain that leads to micro-tears in the tendons, resulting in inflammation and high levels of pain.

However, one of BPC Physio’s services is elbow pain treatment, tackling the cause of the pain and ensuring clients get their full elbow function back as soon as possible. If you have any concerns or are experiencing wrist, forearm, or elbow pain, contact us now to find out about the care and epicondylitis treatment we can provide for you.

Tennis Elbow Symptoms and Treatment

If you are unsure whether or not you need Tennis Elbow physical therapy, here are some common symptoms to look out for:

  • Weak grip
  • Decrease in overall strength
  • Pain or tenderness around the elbow

  • Performance of regular tasks becoming a struggle
  • Stiffness around the elbow joint
