Understanding Golfer's Elbow:

Golfer's elbow is a common overuse injury that affects the tendons on the inner side of the elbow, leading to pain and tenderness.
Despite its name, golfer's elbow can occur in individuals who participate in activities that involve repetitive wrist and forearm movements, such as golf, tennis, and weightlifting.
The condition is characterized by pain and tenderness on the inner side of the elbow, weakness in the forearm, and difficulty with gripping and lifting objects.

Prevalence and Common Causes:

Golfer's elbow is estimated to affect approximately 1-3% of the population each year, with higher prevalence among individuals who engage in repetitive arm movements.
The most common causes of golfer's elbow include:
Repetitive stress or overuse of the forearm muscles, leading to microtears and inflammation in the tendons attached to the medial epicondyle of the humerus.
Improper technique or equipment in sports activities, such as golf swings or tennis strokes.
Poor ergonomics and repetitive motions in occupational settings, such as typing or assembly line work.

Integrated Treatments for Golfer's Elbow:

Shockwave Therapy:

Clinical studies have shown that shockwave therapy can effectively reduce pain and improve function in patients with golfer's elbow. A study published in The American Journal of Sports Medicine reported significant improvements in pain and grip strength following shockwave therapy for medial epicondylitis.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar utilize advanced shockwave therapy techniques to target the affected tendons, stimulate tissue healing, and alleviate pain associated with golfer's elbow.

Chiropractic Care:

Research supports the use of chiropractic adjustments for managing golfer's elbow and improving joint function. A study published in Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics reported favorable outcomes for chiropractic treatment in patients with elbow pain.
Our skilled chiropractors employ gentle, targeted adjustments to realign the elbow joint, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility, providing relief from golfer's elbow.

Soft TIssue Mobilization:

Soft tissue mobilization techniques, such as massage therapy and myofascial release, can help alleviate muscle tension and promote healing in the affected tendons. A study published in The Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy demonstrated the efficacy of soft tissue mobilization in reducing pain and improving function in patients with golfer's elbow.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar offer personalized soft tissue mobilization treatments to address muscle imbalances, reduce scar tissue, and promote tendon healing for individuals with golfer's elbow.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy:
PRP therapy has shown promise in promoting tissue repair and reducing inflammation in patients with golfer's elbow. A meta-analysis published in Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery reported significant improvements in pain and function following PRP injections for chronic elbow tendinopathy.
Our PRP therapy treatments utilize concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration in the elbow, providing long-term relief from golfer's elbow.
Stem Cell Injections:
Emerging research suggests that stem cell therapy may offer benefits for treating chronic tendon injuries, such as golfer's elbow. A study published in The American Journal of Sports Medicine reported improvements in pain and function following stem cell injections for elbow tendinopathy.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar offer advanced stem cell therapy options to support tendon healing and reduce inflammation, helping patients overcome the challenges of golfer's elbow and return to their favorite activities.
