FAQ
Tennis Elbow, questions
Tennis elbow causes pain on the outside of the elbow (extensor tendons); golfer's elbow causes pain on the inside (flexor tendons). Both are overload tendinopathies and respond to soft-tissue therapy plus progressive loading.
Tendinopathies improve gradually with the right loading program, often over several weeks. Avoiding the aggravating load entirely usually slows recovery; guided, progressive loading is more effective.
