How Chiropractic Care Tackles the Root Causes of Tennis Elbow

Elbow pain, particularly tennis elbow or lateral epicondylitis, is not just an athlete’s concern—it touches office workers and anyone involved in repetitive wrist and arm activities. Intriguingly, the real culprit might lurk far from the elbow, possibly in your neck or upper back.

This condition manifests as pain on the outer side of the elbow, often stemming from overused forearm muscles. Strained by repetitive motions, these muscles tug on their elbow attachments, making even simple tasks painfully challenging.

 

Surprisingly, many elbow issues start with the spine. Misalignments in your neck or upper back can pinch nerves that control your arm muscles, leading to elbow pain and dysfunction. It’s a classic case of treating the wrong end of the problem if you’re just soothing the elbow.

 

Knowing how to adjust your workspace and daily habits plays a critical role in sidestepping tennis elbow. We’ll equip you with the knowledge to make elbow-friendly choices.

 

Don’t let tennis elbow dictate your life! We also see golfer’s elbow, which causes similar pain on the inner side of the elbow.
