Common Elbow Conditions We Treat

We help patients with a wide range of elbow injuries and chronic conditions, including:

  • Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis): Inflammation of the tendons on the outside of the elbow, often caused by repetitive wrist extension.
  • Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis): Inflammation of the tendons on the inside of the elbow, commonly from repetitive gripping or wrist flexion activities.
  • Elbow Osteoarthritis: Wear and tear of joint cartilage leading to pain, stiffness, grinding sensations, and limited motion.
  • Elbow Sprains & Strains: Ligament or muscle/tendon injuries caused by sudden movements, lifting, or overuse.
  • Olecranon Bursitis (Elbow Bursitis): Pain and swelling from inflammation of the fluid-filled sac at the back of the elbow.
  • Elbow Joint Subluxation: Misalignment causing joint instability, restricted mobility, nerve irritation, or muscle weakness.
  • Cubital Tunnel Syndrome: Compression of the ulnar nerve, leading to tingling, numbness, or weakness in the ring and pinky fingers.

Common Causes of Elbow Pain

Elbow pain can result from a variety of factors, including:

  • Repetitive or forceful elbow/wrist use
  • Acute trauma or falls
  • Poor posture or neck dysfunction affecting arm mechanics
  • Nerve compression (e.g., cervical spine or cubital tunnel)
  • Overuse injuries from sports, computer work, or lifting

Chiropractic Treatment for Elbow Pain

Our goal is to address the root cause of elbow pain, not just mask symptoms. Treatment is personalized and may include:

  • Chiropractic Adjustments: Gentle realignment of the elbow, shoulder, or cervical spine to relieve nerve pressure and restore movement.
  • Physical Rehabilitation: Exercises to strengthen supporting muscles, improve stability, and restore range of motion.
  • Class IV Laser Therapy: Non-invasive therapy that reduces inflammation and accelerates tissue healing.
  • Massage Therapy: Techniques to reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and aid recovery.
  • Myofascial Release & Soft Tissue Work: Targeted therapy for muscle and connective tissue restrictions.
  • Kinesio Taping or Bracing: Support for injured tendons or joints to improve movement and promote healing.
  • Nutritional & Supplement Recommendations: Support tissue healing and reduce systemic inflammation through diet and supplements.

Your initial visit includes a thorough evaluation of your elbow, shoulder, neck, and wrist to understand the mechanics and root cause of your pain. From there, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan using the latest techniques to relieve pain, restore function, and prevent future injuries.
