Natural Relief for Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow

Pain on the outside or inside of your elbow isn’t just annoying — it can keep you from playing sports, lifting objects, or even doing simple daily activities. At Restorative Care Chiropractic in Peachtree City, we help treat tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow by addressing the root cause — naturally and effectively.

Understanding Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow

Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) and golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis) are both forms of repetitive strain injuries. They happen when the tendons that attach to the elbow become irritated, inflamed, or even develop tiny tears from overuse or poor movement mechanics.

Symptoms include:

  • Pain on the outside of the elbow (tennis elbow) or inside of the elbow (golfer’s elbow)

  • Stiffness and tenderness around the joint

  • Weak grip strength

  • Pain when lifting, gripping, swinging, or twisting

  • Discomfort that radiates down into the forearm or wrist

You don’t have to be a tennis player or a golfer to develop these conditions.
They’re also common in people who work at desks, lift weights, do yardwork, or use tools or computers repetitively.

How Chiropractic Care Helps with Tennis and Golfer’s Elbow

Chiropractic care goes beyond simply treating the pain — we help fix the root cause by restoring proper joint function, improving muscle balance, and supporting tendon healing naturally.

Here’s how we help:

  • Joint Adjustments (Wrist, Elbow, Shoulder, Spine)
    Misalignment in the elbow, wrist, or even the shoulder can put excess strain on tendons. We restore motion and balance to take pressure off the injured area.
  • Dolphin Neurostim Therapy
    This gentle microcurrent therapy helps reduce inflammation, speed up tissue healing, and calm irritated nerves around the elbow.
  • Kinesiology Taping: We use KT Tape to enhance recovery, reduce pain, and support the healing process.
  • Soft Tissue Release
    We use NMR and Shockwave to relieve tightness in the forearm muscles, improving blood flow and healing.
  • Movement and Ergonomic Corrections
    We teach you how to move, lift, and grip properly to avoid re-irritating the injury — whether you’re on the court, on the course, or at your desk.
  • Strengthening and Flexibility Exercises
    We guide you through safe exercises to rebuild strength and flexibility in the forearm, wrist, and hand.

With consistent care, many patients experience reduced pain, stronger function, and a quicker return to normal activities — without injections or surgery.

Elbow Pain in Tennis, Golf, and Pickleball Players

You don’t have to be a pro athlete to suffer from elbow pain. In fact, recreational tennis, golf, and pickleball players are some of the most common people we help with repetitive strain injuries like tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow.

Common ways sports cause elbow pain:

  • Poor swing mechanics putting extra strain on the forearm muscles
  • Overuse during practice sessions, tournaments, or back-to-back matches
  • Weak grip strength leading to tendon overload
  • Tight shoulders or wrists forcing the elbow to absorb extra stress

If left untreated, what starts as a minor soreness can turn into chronic pain that keeps you off the court, out of the gym, or away from the course.

At Restorative Care Chiropractic, we understand the demands sports place on your body.
We use gentle chiropractic adjustments, Dolphin Neurostim therapy, Shockwave therapy and sport-specific movement retraining to reduce inflammation, improve mechanics, and get you back in the game — stronger, safer, and pain-free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can chiropractic really help elbow pain?
Yes! Chiropractic care isn’t just for the spine — we also adjust and treat extremities like elbows and wrists to restore function and reduce tendon strain.

Will I need imaging like an MRI or X-rays?
Usually no. A thorough history and physical exam are often enough to diagnose and begin safe, effective care. We’ll refer you if needed.

How long does it take to recover?
Mild cases may improve in just a few weeks. More chronic or severe injuries might need a few months of consistent care and strengthening.

Is chiropractic care safe for athletes?
Absolutely. We work with many active adults, from weekend warriors to competitive athletes, and use safe, sport-specific techniques.
