How can Chiropractic help Elbow Pain?
Diagnose the right condition for a personalised treatment
Identifying the origin of pain is the first step in addressing an elbow pain condition, followed by assessing neurological symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or weakness in grip. In addition to the elbow joint, the cervical spine, shoulders, wrist, and forearm musculature may also be the targets of assessments.
It will be helpful if you can observe the factors that provoke pain during your daily activities, as this provides valuable information for your chiropractor to tailor your rehabilitation plan and offer tips on “driving” your body without reinjuring it.
Treatment will be customised to your elbow condition, and these options can include:
Chiropractic Adjustments
To improve joint function and alleviate the stress on your elbow.
Electrotherapy (TENS machine)
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) therapy involves the use of low-voltage electric currents to treat pain.
Trigger Point Release
Reduces pain by reliving tightness and stress around elbow joints.
Active Release Therapy
Non-invasive manual therapy techniques that work to correct soft tissue restrictions that cause pain and mobility issues.
Myofascial Therapy
Physical therapy targeted at releasing points of damage and injury.
