Some interesting research has just been published which shows that acupuncture is a helpful treatment for tennis elbow.
Tennis elbow is a form of tendinitis and we treat many people in clinic who suffer from this – most of them have not got it from playing tennis! It may be a result of other forms of exercise, particularly lifting weights at the gym. It also seems to be exacerbated by working on a PC.
The research carried out 20 treatments on the participants but we see encouraging results in clinic usually after just a couple of sessions. So don’t suffer in silence or feel the only way forward is to dose yourself up on anti-inflammatories and wait for it to heal slowly. Give us a call to see how we can help.
