At Godiva Physiotherapy, we understand that elbow pain can significantly impact your daily life, whether it’s from sports injuries, repetitive strain, or age-related issues. Our team offers expert physiotherapy services designed to restore function, alleviate pain, and prevent future injuries.
We combine the latest evidence based treatments with hands on techniques tailored to your needs. Our approach focuses on understanding your unique symptoms, lifestyle, and goals to design a treatment plan that works for you.
Whether you’ve had a recent injury or have been living with elbow pain for some time, our physiotherapists are equipped to treat a wide range of elbow conditions, including:
Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)
This common overuse injury causes pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow. It is often a result of repetitive motion, such as gripping or lifting. Our treatments can help reduce pain and strengthen the muscles around the elbow to prevent future flare-ups.
Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis)
Similar to tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow affects the inside of the elbow and is typically caused by repetitive motion. Symptoms include pain and tenderness in the forearm and elbow. Physiotherapy can help improve flexibility, strength, and reduce inflammation.
Elbow Bursitis (Olecranon Bursitis)
Elbow bursitis occurs when the fluid-filled sac at the tip of the elbow becomes inflamed. This can cause swelling, pain, and limited movement. Our physiotherapists use techniques such as manual therapy, stretching, and strengthening to reduce swelling and improve function.
Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
Pressure on the ulnar nerve as it passes through the elbow, leading to tingling, numbness, or pain in the elbow, hand, and fingers. We use specific exercises and nerve mobilisation techniques to relieve pressure and restore normal function.
Elbow Instability
Whether due to a traumatic injury or chronic overuse, elbow instability can make the joint feel loose or prone to dislocation. We assess the joint and create a rehabilitation program aimed at restoring strength and stability to prevent further injury.
Elbow Sprains & Strains
Sprains and strains are common injuries that can result from falls, sports, or sudden movements. We focus on restoring the range of motion and strength through gentle exercises to speed up recovery and minimise discomfort.
Arthritis
Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can affect the elbow joint, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. At Godiva Physiotherapy, we offer treatments that focus on pain management, joint mobility exercises, and strength training to improve function and minimise flare-ups.
Fractures & Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Whether you’ve experienced an elbow fracture or undergone surgery to treat an injury, post-surgical rehabilitation is crucial for restoring movement and strength. We provide tailored rehabilitation programs to help you recover fully and return to daily activities with confidence.
Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI)
Chronic, repetitive motions can cause strain on the elbow, leading to pain and inflammation. Our physiotherapists use a combination of stretching, strengthening, and posture correction techniques to alleviate pain and reduce the risk of future injuries.
At Godiva Physiotherapy, we use a holistic, evidence based approach to treatment that may include the following:
