🎾 Tennis Elbow Isn’t Just for Tennis Players

📌 Lateral epicondylitis (aka tennis elbow) is caused by repetitive strain on the forearm muscles—not just from sport, but from activities like:

Typing 💻

Lifting groceries 🛒

Gardening 🌱

DIY projects 🔨

If you’ve got elbow pain when gripping or lifting, it might be time to check in with your physio!

💪 Fun Physio Fact! 💪
Did you know that standing on one leg for just 10 seconds can be a quick test for your overall health?
