Tennis and Golf Elbow Injury in Mississauga

Elbow pain from repetitive use can affect your grip, strength, and performance—whether you play sports or perform repetitive tasks at work. Without proper treatment, symptoms can persist and limit daily activity.

At Elevation Physiotherapy & Wellness in Mississauga, we provide targeted physiotherapy to reduce pain, restore strength, and improve function for tennis elbow and golf elbow.

Signs and Symptoms

Early symptoms should not be ignored, especially if they continue to worsen.

Common signs include:

• Pain on the outer or inner elbow
• Tenderness with gripping or lifting
• Weak grip strength
• Forearm tightness or fatigue
• Stiffness, especially after rest
• Occasional tingling in the forearm or hand

Understanding Tennis and Golf Elbow

Tennis elbow and golf elbow are overuse conditions caused by repetitive strain on the tendons around the elbow.

These injuries develop when small stresses build up over time, leading to irritation, reduced strength, and discomfort during movement.

A Targeted Treatment Approach

Your care begins with a detailed assessment of your movement, strength, and function.

Treatment may include:

• Hands-on therapy to reduce tension and improve tissue mobility
• Progressive strengthening exercises for the forearm and upper limb
• Eccentric loading to support tendon recovery
• Mobility work to improve flexibility and joint movement
• Movement retraining to reduce strain during activity

Each program is adjusted based on your progress and goals.

Preventing Recurrence

Addressing the cause of the injury is key to long-term recovery.

Physiotherapy helps you:

• Improve movement patterns and technique
• Build strength and endurance in the forearm and shoulder
• Modify activities that contribute to strain
• Develop strategies to reduce repetitive stress

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does recovery take?
Recovery varies, but consistent treatment supports gradual improvement over time.

Should I stop activity completely?
Not always. Activity may be modified to allow healing while maintaining function.

Can this condition come back?
It can if underlying factors are not addressed. Physiotherapy helps reduce this risk.
