Tennis Elbow

Tennis elbow is often a very painful elbow condition that occurs from a strain or sprain of the soft tissue structures along the outside of the elbow. Although this condition may start out as seemingly benign it may progress to a extremely painful and debilitating condition. Common causes of Tennis elbow may include lifting heavy objects, repetitive motions, trauma, and sports such as golf or tennis. Treatment in all forms must reduce the inflammation and irritation of the structures at or near the attachment sites of the muscles and other structures. Active Release Techniques® (ART®) Soft tissue therapy is one of the most effective treatments for Tennis Elbow because it can detect, evaluate and treat the specific muscles, ligaments, and joint structures that are often compromised. At Summit Integrated Health Centre our team is highly experienced and qualified in providing the finest ART® care.
