🔥 Tennis or Golfer’s Elbow? 🔥

Despite the name, it’s often not true inflammation especially if it’s been hanging around for weeks or months.

Most cases are caused by tendon overload 👇
⚡ tiny micro-tears
⚡ irritation & sensitivity
⚡ reduced strength

✔ Tennis elbow = outside of the elbow
✔ Golfer’s elbow = inside of the elbow

✅ What helps?
• Hands-on treatment
• Shockwave therapy
• Smart load management
• Progressive strengthening
• Taping/bracing

🎯 The goal: build a stronger tendon, not just settle the pain.

🔥 What is inflammation… and what’s really happening in tendon injuries like tennis elbow or achilles pain? 🔥
Inflammation is your body’s built in healing response.
When something is irritated or injured, your body sends extra blood flow and healing chemicals to the area which can cause:
✅ pain
✅ swelling
✅ heat
✅stiffness
That’s normal… but when symptoms hang around too long, recovery can stall.
💥So what about Tennis Elbow, Golfer’s Elbow or Achilles “tendonitis”?
Even though they’re often called “itis”, many tendon injuries aren’t always true inflammation especially if they’ve been there for weeks or months.
Most of the time it’s actually tendon overload 👇

The tendon has been doing more than it can cope with, leading to:
⚡ tiny micro-tears
⚡ irritation + sensitivity
⚡reduced strength + tolerance to load
✅ Tennis elbow = tendons on the outside of the elbow
✅ Golfer’s elbow = tendons on the inside of the elbow
✅Achilles pain = overload of the tendon at the back of the ankle
✅So what can we do to treat it?
Treatment may include:
-Manual hands-on Manipulation of the tension in the muscle
-Shockwave treatment on the tendon to reduce the inflammation and help rebuild the micro tears in the tendon
✔ load management (resting smart, not stopping everything)
✔ rehab strengthening exercises (only when the pain is subsiding in the tendon)
✔ taping or braces
✔ ice/heat strategies
✔return to sport/work planning
🎯The goal isn’t just to “calm it down” — it’s to build the tendon back stronger so it doesn’t keep coming back.
If you’ve had tendon pain that just won’t settle, we can help ✅

Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Improves Healing and Function Increased oxygen levels in the blood plasma gives the body tissues the ability to become more concentrated with oxygen creating a more effective environment to support normal healing and cell function. In addition to helping patients heal post-surgery and athletes recover from injuries and fatigue, Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can provide effective treatment for some medical conditions. It helps to reduce hypoxic areas (insufficient oxygen for function) of the body to improve metabolic function of cells, support and strengthen immune response and enhance normal healing processes.

How does Shockwave work?
Shockwave is an acoustic (sound) wave which when introduced into tissue helps Muscle, Tendon, Ligamental and other soft tissues promoting regeneration and helps reprocesses of the bone. Shockwaves are characterised by changes in pressure, using high amplitude kinetic energy created by compressed air in the machine and transferred to the transmitted at the end of the applicator handle and further into the tissue.
