Elbow pain, whether on the inside or outside of the joint, can quickly become frustrating not just during sport, but in everyday tasks like lifting, gripping, or even opening a jar.
It’s most commonly caused by overuse and repetitive strain, where the muscles and tendons of the forearm become overloaded over time.
The key to recovery is simple:
Identify what’s causing it and reduce the load before it worsens

What To Do First

• Reduce the aggravating activity
  Pushing through will usually delay recovery
• Use ice in the evenings
  Helps settle irritation and calm the area
• Start gentle stretching
  Reduces tension through the forearm muscles

Why Elbow Pain Lingers

The tendons around the elbow don’t like being constantly overloaded.
Without the right approach:

• Pain sticks around
• Strength drops
• It becomes harder to grip, lift, or train

That’s why early intervention matters.

How I Can Help
Elbow pain is something I see regularly — and have dealt with myself due to the hands-on nature of my work.
In clinic, I focus on:

• Releasing tension through the forearm muscles
• Reducing strain on the irritated tendon
• Restoring movement and strength

You’ll also be shown simple, effective exercises to do at home, nothing complicated, just what’s needed to get things moving in the right direction again.
If needed, I may also use supportive taping to help you stay active while recovering.

The Goal
The aim isn’t just to settle the pain, it’s to:

• Get you back to sport or training
• Restore strength and confidence
• Stop it coming back again
