Golf Elbow & Tennis Elbow: Can SoftWave Therapy Provide Relief?
Golf elbow and tennis elbow, while commonly associated with athletes, can affect anyone who engages in repetitive arm and wrist activities. These conditions, known medically as medial and lateral epicondylitis, respectively, can cause significant pain and discomfort, impacting daily life. At Cedar Park Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we've seen how SoftWave Therapy can offer an effective solution for these conditions. Let's explore these elbow issues and how SoftWave Therapy can help.
Understanding Golf Elbow and Tennis Elbow
Golf elbow (medial epicondylitis) and tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) are forms of tendinitis. They occur due to overuse of the muscles and tendons of the forearm, leading to pain and tenderness around the elbow joint. Despite their names, these conditions aren't limited to golfers or tennis players. They can arise from any repetitive motion involving gripping, twisting, or lifting.
Golf Elbow
Golf elbow affects the inner tendons of the elbow, causing pain and inflammation where the tendons attach to the bony bump on the inside of the elbow. It's often a result of activities that require forceful or repetitive flexing of the wrist and fingers.
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow impacts the outer elbow tendons. It's characterized by pain where the tendons attach to the bony bump on the outside of the elbow, exacerbated by repetitive wrist and arm motions.
Traditional Treatments vs. SoftWave Therapy
Traditional treatments for these conditions include rest, ice, anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy, and in severe cases, surgery. While these methods can be effective, they often require a significant time commitment and may not always provide lasting relief.
SoftWave Therapy offers a non-invasive alternative. It uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves to stimulate the body's natural healing processes, addressing the root cause of the pain.
How SoftWave Therapy Works
SoftWave Therapy's acoustic waves penetrate deep into the tissue, stimulating blood flow and reducing inflammation. This process encourages the body to initiate its natural healing mechanisms, leading to the repair of damaged tissues.
Benefits of SoftWave Therapy for Elbow Conditions
- Non-Invasive Treatment: SoftWave Therapy provides relief without the need for surgery or injections.
- Pain Reduction: It effectively reduces pain and inflammation, offering immediate relief.
- Accelerated Healing: The therapy promotes natural healing processes, leading to quicker recovery.
- Improved Functionality: Patients often experience increased mobility and a return to normal activities.
