Tennis Elbow Treatment in Los Angeles
Calm Elbow Pain and Get Your Grip Back
Effective tennis elbow treatment in Los Angeles addresses more than the sore spot on your elbow. At Faye Chiropractic, we treat irritated tendons directly with laser and shockwave therapy while restoring joint motion in the neck, shoulder, elbow, and wrist to reduce ongoing stress.
Tennis elbow occurs when the tendons that attach the wrist extensor muscles to the outside of the elbow become irritated from injury or repetitive overuse. Pain is often felt with gripping, lifting, or wrist extension.
Joint dysfunction of the neck, shoulder, elbow, or wrist can increase stress on these tendons. As the joints lose normal mobility, the surrounding muscles tighten, contributing to persistent pain.
Treatment focuses on restoring normal joint movement to reduce stress on the tendon. Care may include chiropractic adjustments, laser therapy, shockwave therapy, soft tissue therapy, stretching, strengthening, and activity modification.
Is It Tennis Elbow? Common Warning Signs
Pain on the outside of your elbow flares when you grip objects
Lifting a coffee cup, bag, or gallon of milk causes sharp elbow pain
Turning a doorknob or using a screwdriver aggravates your forearm and elbow
Typing, mouse work, or repetitive tools keep the pain from settling down
Your grip feels weaker, and you sometimes drop things you’d normally hold easily
Elbow pain has lingered for weeks despite rest, a brace, or ice packs
Easing the Strain on Your Tendon
Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, rarely improves when the tendon keeps getting overloaded. Treatment combines therapies that calm the irritated tendon with joint care and exercise that reduce the stress causing it in the first place.
Radial shockwave therapy to stimulate healing in a stubborn, overused wrist extensor tendon
Class IV laser therapy to help reduce pain and inflammation around the outer elbow
Adjustments for the neck, shoulder, elbow, and wrist that relieve tendon stress
Stretching, strengthening, and activity changes that protect the tendon as it heals
