Tennis and Golfer’s Elbow Treatment by Chiropractor at The Spine and Wellness Center in Parkland, FL
Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow are painful conditions that can significantly affect your ability to perform everyday tasks or enjoy sports and physical activities. At The Spine and Wellness Center in Parkland, FL, we provide non-invasive chiropractic treatment for both tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow, helping patients recover quickly and regain full function of their arms and elbows. Our holistic approach focuses on relieving pain, reducing inflammation, and promoting healing naturally.
What Are Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow?
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) and golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis) are both forms of tendinitis caused by repetitive motion and overuse of the arm and forearm muscles. Despite their names, these conditions are not exclusive to athletes—anyone who performs repetitive tasks, such as typing, lifting, or manual labor, can develop these injuries.
- Tennis Elbow: Affects the outer part of the elbow, where the tendons of the forearm muscles attach to the bone. This condition is caused by overuse of the forearm muscles, often from activities like tennis, painting, or typing.
- Golfer’s Elbow: Affects the inner side of the elbow, where the tendons that control the wrist and fingers attach to the bone. This condition is common in golfers but can also be caused by any activity that requires repetitive wrist flexion or gripping.
Both conditions cause pain, stiffness, and weakness in the affected area, making it difficult to perform simple tasks like gripping objects, lifting items, or even shaking hands.
Chiropractic Treatments for Tennis and Golfer’s Elbow at The Spine and Wellness Center
At The Spine and Wellness Center, we offer a variety of chiropractic treatments designed to relieve pain, promote healing, and restore function for patients with tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow. Our non-invasive, drug-free treatments target the underlying causes of your pain and provide long-term relief.
- Chiropractic Adjustments: Misalignments in the spine, shoulders, or elbows can contribute to strain and tension in the muscles and tendons. Our chiropractors use gentle adjustments to realign the affected joints, improving nerve function and reducing tension in the forearm muscles.
- Soft Tissue Therapy: Soft tissue therapy is essential for treating tennis and golfer’s elbow, as it helps release tension in the affected muscles and tendons. Our chiropractors use techniques such as myofascial release and deep tissue massage to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and promote healing.
- Stretching and Strengthening Exercises: Strengthening the muscles of the forearm and improving flexibility can help relieve pressure on the tendons and prevent further injury. We develop personalized exercise programs to help you regain strength and flexibility in your arm, wrist, and elbow.
- Ergonomic and Postural Adjustments: Repetitive motions and poor posture often contribute to tennis and golfer’s elbow. Our team provides ergonomic guidance and posture correction strategies to help you avoid future strain on the elbow and forearm.
- Cold Laser Therapy: Cold laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level light to reduce inflammation and stimulate the body’s natural healing process. This treatment can be especially beneficial for reducing pain and promoting tissue repair in the elbow and forearm.
- Electrical Stimulation: Electrical stimulation therapy may be used to reduce pain, relax tight muscles, and promote blood flow to the affected area. This therapy can help speed up the healing process and improve your range of motion.
