Helping You Get Back to Pain-Free Movement
Elbow pain can affect everything from lifting a kettle and typing at work to playing tennis, golf, padel or going to the gym.
Whether your symptoms developed gradually through overuse or followed a sudden injury, our experienced physiotherapists will identify the root cause and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your goals.
At Physical Health Physiotherapy, we combine hands-on treatment, movement analysis and progressive rehabilitation to relieve pain, restore strength and help prevent your symptoms from returning
Tennis Elbow & Padel Injuries
Tennis elbow is one of the most common causes of elbow pain and isn't limited to tennis players. It frequently affects people who work at a desk, perform repetitive lifting, use tools, go to the gym or participate in racquet sports.
With the rapid growth of padel, we are seeing increasing numbers of players presenting with elbow pain caused by repetitive gripping, powerful overhead shots and changes in training volume. Early physiotherapy assessment can significantly reduce recovery time and help you return to playing confidently.
