Suffering from Tennis or Golfer's Elbow?
Many of us have experienced a painful elbow from time to time after a golf game, tennis match or raking the lawn. One of the most frequent injuries suffered by athletes and weekend warriors alike is Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow.
Symptoms of Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow include:
* Difficulty with movements such as gripping, lifting and carrying.
* Pain and tenderness either on the outside of the elbow (tennis elbow) or on the inside of the elbow (golfer’s elbow)
* Pain that radiates down the arm toward the wrist.
* Difficulty extending the forearm

Acupuncture is a natural complement to traditional treatments such as medications, heat, braces, physical therapy and rest, which are effective in relieving pain but do very little to prevent the condition from recurring. Research has proven that acupuncture not only relieves the symptoms of tennis, golfer’s elbow, and frozen shoulder syndrome, but it also appears to resolve the condition.
