More information

What the Golfers/Tennis Elbow Treatment covers

This 20 minute treatment concentrates on the tissues that often drive pain around the elbow and forearm.

  • Brief check in on symptoms, aggravating movements, and where you feel pain (inner elbow for golfers elbow, outer elbow for tennis elbow)
  • Targeted soft tissue work to the forearm flexors and extensors to reduce tightness and improve glide
  • Specific work around tendon attachment points at the elbow to help calm local sensitivity
  • Gentle stretching and elbow, wrist, and forearm mobilisation where appropriate
  • Simple, practical aftercare guidance to reduce flare ups between sessions

Common reasons people book elbow and forearm pain treatment

  • Soreness when gripping, lifting a kettle, turning a door handle, or shaking hands
  • Elbow pain after racquet sports, golf, climbing, gym work, or rowing
  • Aching forearms from repetitive tasks such as hair tools, keyboard work, DIY, or manual work
  • Stiffness around the elbow that builds during the day

How a 20 minute Golfers/Tennis Elbow session works

You will be positioned comfortably so the forearm and elbow can fully relax. The therapist will work through the muscles of the forearm, then focus more precisely around the tender areas near the elbow. Some techniques can feel intense on irritated tissues, but pressure is always adjusted so it stays manageable and productive.

Aftercare that helps protect the tendon between treatments

You may be shown gentle stretches and simple load management tips to reduce repeated irritation. Many people do best with a short course of sessions, then occasional top ups alongside gradual return to sport or training. If you have sudden swelling, numbness, significant weakness, or pain after a fall, seek medical advice before booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between golfers elbow and tennis elbow?
Golfers elbow usually affects the inner side of the elbow and is linked to the forearm flexor tendons. Tennis elbow is more often felt on the outer elbow and relates to the forearm extensor tendons.
Will the treatment be painful?
Some tenderness is common because irritated tendons and tight forearm muscles can be sensitive. Pressure is kept within your comfort levels and adjusted throughout.
How many sessions do I typically need for golfers or tennis elbow?
It varies with how long the symptoms have been present and how repetitive the trigger activity is. Many people notice change over a small course of sessions, with progress supported by aftercare and sensible loading.
Can I keep playing sport or training with tennis or golfers elbow?
Often you can continue with modifications, but pushing through sharp pain can slow recovery. Reducing grip intensity, adjusting technique, and pacing training usually helps alongside treatment.
When should I avoid booking an elbow treatment and seek medical advice first?
Seek advice first if you have sudden swelling, heat and redness, numbness or tingling into the hand, marked weakness, fever, or pain after a fall. These symptoms need assessment before hands on treatment.
