Burwood NSW · Tennis Elbow Treatment
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylalgia) is the most common elbow condition — causing outer elbow pain that can severely limit gripping and daily activities. It responds very well to physiotherapy and shockwave therapy.
The common extensor tendons at the lateral epicondyle become degenerative from repetitive overload. We accurately diagnose and stage your tendinopathy and deliver a progressive program that resolves even long-standing cases.
How We Treat This Condition
Evidence-based treatment tailored to your specific presentation and goals.
Clinical Assessment
Specific tests distinguish lateral epicondylalgia from radial tunnel syndrome, posterior interosseous nerve entrapment, and cervical referral.
