Specialist care for elbow pain
What is elbow pain?
Elbow pain is not usually a sign of anything serious.
It is typically tennis or golfers elbow pain. When the pain remains persistant and not improving is when it becomes a problem. It can significantly impact your daily life by weakening your grip and ability to do simple tasks like lifting, typing and turning doorknobs. The pain can even escalate to disrupting your sleep and affecting your work productivity. This creates frustration and lowers your mood. I believe by understanding the condition, the most effective treatment plan can be formed. I value educating my clients on the condition as it produces the best clinical outcomes and reduces the risk of re-injury.
How elbow pain might show up

Tenderness when touching the elbow

My approach
I approach Elbow conditions with advice, education, hands on therapy, tailored exercise programs and shockwave therapy. This typically achieves a reduction in pain, improved mobility and strength, restoring functional mobility.

Attend Initial Consultation
At your first appointment, I will take a thorough history of your problem and ask detailed questions about the behaviour of your symptoms and relevant medical history. I will then observe, examine, and test various movements and structures to diagnose your problem and establish the cause of your symptoms.

Answering your questions
-
X-rays and scans often DO NOT show the cause of your pain.
Elbow pain is common WITHOUT any damage to the joint.
X-rays and scans often show joint narrowing and osteoarthritis which are common in people WITHOUT elbow pain. These findings are unlikely to change the way you manage your pain.
X-rays and scans are best used where a serious injury (e.g., a broken bone) or conditions such as cancer or infection are suspected.
-
Movement and exercise is NOT harmful for elbow joint. Your elbow can become stronger and healthier with regular movement and exercise
-
Creaking or clicking elbow joints are common in people without elbow pain. It is a RARELY a sign of harm or damage.
