Tennis Elbow & Golfer's Elbow Treatment in Mosley Common, Worsley & Walkden

Struggling With Elbow Pain?

Elbow pain can make simple everyday tasks surprisingly difficult.

Whether you're lifting a kettle, carrying shopping, gripping tools, using a computer mouse or playing sport, elbow pain can quickly become frustrating and affect your quality of life.

At Revive Physio, I regularly assess and treat both Tennis Elbow and Golfer's Elbow.

What Is Tennis Elbow?

Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylalgia) is pain on the outside of the elbow.

Despite its name, most people who develop Tennis Elbow have never picked up a tennis racket.

It commonly affects people who:

✔ Work at a desk

✔ Use a computer mouse frequently

✔ Perform repetitive lifting

✔ Carry children

✔ Do DIY or gardening

✔ Participate in racket sports

Common Symptoms

  • Pain on the outside of the elbow

  • Pain gripping objects

  • Difficulty lifting a kettle

  • Pain opening jars

  • Reduced grip strength

  • Symptoms worse after activity

What Is Golfer's Elbow?

Golfer's Elbow (Medial Epicondylalgia) causes pain on the inside of the elbow.

It often develops due to repetitive gripping, lifting or wrist movements.

Common Symptoms

  • Pain on the inside of the elbow

  • Pain gripping objects

  • Pain lifting weights

  • Tenderness around the elbow

  • Reduced strength

  • Pain during sports or exercise

What Causes Tennis and Golfer's Elbow?

These conditions usually develop when the tendons around the elbow become overloaded.

Common contributing factors include:

  • Repetitive tasks

  • Increased gym training

  • Poor lifting technique

  • Sudden increases in activity

  • Desk-based work

  • Sports participation

How Physiotherapy Can Help

A detailed assessment helps identify not only the painful area but also the reason symptoms developed.

Treatment may include:

✓ Hands-on physiotherapy

✓ Strengthening exercises

✓ Load management advice

✓ Ergonomic assessment

✓ Postural advice

✓ Exercise progression

✓ Return-to-sport guidance

When Should You Seek Help?

If symptoms have persisted for several weeks, are worsening or are affecting work, sport or daily activities, physiotherapy may help identify the cause and support recovery.

Early treatment often leads to better outcomes.
