Tennis Injury Physiotherapy in Johannesburg
Tennis elbow, serving shoulder and the demands of repeated overhead loading.
Tennis loads the shoulder overhead, the elbow on impact and the trunk in rotation, thousands of times a season. Lateral elbow pain is the best-known presentation, but rotator cuff and scapular control problems from serving are more common and more limiting.
Elbow pain in a tennis player is frequently a grip-strength and shoulder problem expressing itself further down the arm, which is why isolated elbow treatment so often fails to hold.
