This is actuly the first time I ever wrote a review or any kind of comment online. I have had tennis elbow for a year and a half and have tried everthing. I have had an appointment with a specialist and a couple different physical therpaist. After doing the ball exercise that you recommended my arm feels normal for the first time since I could remember. I cannot thank you enough for this video. I am incredibly grateful that you post such great content that helps people who need it. Thank you so much!
The ball thing is not a permanent fix. In my experience with shoulder problems, it can relieve the pain sometimes entirely, but it comes back. Do this in conjunction with other things.
Yeah its badass. Equivalent to a deep tissue massage in my eyes.
Adding kettle bell swings will help with a permanent fix but the ball will give relief while you correct the structural issue.
@@trevbarlow9719 Not suppose to be buddy just a relief
@@TheWolfCub71 doing kettlebell cleans is what caused my tennis elbow to come back after 10 years of no issue so you have to think of that too..
After watching 5+ hours of YT videos and consulting with multiple professionals, this is Best tennis elbow advice I’ve heard yet. I also appreciate his no nonsense approach to video making. This guy is the real McCoy 10/10.
Hi @Salvitore Gachione,
Thank you so much! I'm glad you found the video clear and insightful. Best wishes, Ashley.
Absolutely agree 100%! I've viewed other videos (some very helpful) but this video is the total package - have liked/subscribed and bookmarked!
It's crazy how bad this injury can be. After dealing with a serious case, I did 1 month no work with no use of either arm. Finally got to a 3lbs restriction and limited use, been that way for 3 months. I am finally starting to be able to strengthen my arm. I would recommend using caution working with physical therapy and not to push it to hard. Set me back I felt a couple of times. If your arm is sore, I'd recommend just message and stretch only until you basically have very little to no pain at all. Then start to introduce some weight. I'm 39 years old and work pretty hard and this completely stopped me in my track's. Also, another thing that helped was figuring out how to sleep with your arms somewhat in a neutral position. Figure this will take another 2 months of carful activity to hopefully not have it come back.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video on tennis elbow. I’ve been dealing with the pain since December and have tried physio therapy, acupuncture, ice packs, heat packs, arm braces, you name it.
Then I came across your video and have followed the first segment and I’m now pain free in just three days. Incredible!!!! I am now ready to move on to phase 2 and then 3.
I can’t thank you enough.

Wow, first thank you. I've had tennis elbow for 9 months and have seen numerous doctors. It's been a battle all year and I haven't been getting better and in a lot of pain. I watched this video and massaged my arm and did a version of the ball technique. The pain magically went away immediately. Like many others I'm glad I found this and am very grateful.
I wish I had found this video a year ago. So well articulated, easy to understand, and lots of info on potential pitfalls. Thank you.
You are most welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. Do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
Great comprehensive video that stresses don’t exercise/stretch the muscle while still in pain. TE is a serious lingerer so patience, not aggressiveness, is the absolute key.
This is the best, most comprehensive and specific protocol, all while myth busting. Theres no where else to get the right information about Tennis Elbow on TH-cam. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this - I have early stage tennis elbow and all it needed was the massage to relieve it. I can now slowly build up the strength in my tendons using this video, and continue playing. So very generous of you to share this with us!
That's great to hear Gareth! I hope you continue to make improvements. Let me know how you get on. Wishing you a speedy recovery! Best wishes, Ashley.
@@PrecisionWellbeing how to massage in phase 1
This is the best description video I have found and explains the condition very well, how to ease and then stretch out the affected area. Awesome, thank you.
Thank you so much! Glad you found the video helpful. Do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
These exercises and tips are honestly much better than the ones my physio gave me! Thank you for making this video accessible for everyone, appeciate that thoughtfulness.
The three phases you explained, and how to distinguish each phase, is what most of the therapists and even doctors miss.
I had the serious condition after playing extensive badminton. I rested as per advise from docs. But, wasn't explained what next. They were just prescribing medicines and rest, even after 3 months of facing the problem! Now I understand that what I've is just sourness and I should start with stretching and strengthing. Thanks!
Infinite thanks! I just saw this video, and after viewing literally hundreds, suffering and having suffered from tennis elbow at two different times over the last ten years, I have no doubt this is the BEST and MORE HELPFUL tennis elbow treatment video I have ever seen. I’m not a guy that writes reviews, actually this is my very first review on TH-cam (been watching it for 15 years on a daily basis), but you truly deserve it for your fantastic contribution to my health, and to the health of many others. You went directly to the point, to THE point, with simplicity and humbleness. Congrats.
Cheers!
Thank you so much! It means a lot to me that you have written this comment and it makes me happy that you found the video helpful and hopefully it helps you overcome your tennis elbow pain (if you have it). Best wishes, Ashley
You're right. Tried a few videos but this this one is more useful and helpful. Thanks a lot.
I agree Zorba. Without a doubt, the best video on TH-cam to help eradicate tennis elbow. I just started doing some of the exercises and am feeling much better.
Thank you Anie I appreciate that and I'm really glad it helps. I wish you a full recovery. Best wishes, Ashley
Thank you Rich I appreciate your comment. I hope you manage to quickly overcome your tennis elbow. Best wishes, Ashley
One of the best vids have seen on this. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much! Let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Ashley.
Very well put together video. In my lifetime, I have had tennis elbow twice & now feel it coming on again. This guy knows what he is talking about & obviously listens to his patients.
Thank You very much for this informative video!! started to get some inflamed right forearm muscles from increasing weights too early at the gym (been closed for months), baby step at a time I guess. Thanks again, I've learned how does that happen and what to do about it!
Thank you very much for taking the time to actually make a great informative video. You are the first person to actually explain it, and how to deal with it, correctly. A+ Thank you very much.
Hi John,
You're most welcome! I'm so glad to hear the video was insightful. How is your elbow doing? Have you tried any of the stretches yet? Do let me know. Best wishes, Ashley.
Well done video. Great explanations. Thanks for the timestamp portions - those will make it easier for me to return as I need to review the next steps and the exercises.
Thank you! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
Brilliant advice, I've got it in both elbows and I can promise this advice is spot on
I’ve been dealing with this pain for over five weeks... After I checked this video and applied those exercises im starting feel a little bit better ...This video is so helpful !!!!
You're most welcome Kelvin! So glad to hear the video was helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery! Best wishes, Ashley.
I have been battling with this injury for months. Thank you so very much for the informative video. I understand my injury much better and have a better idea of what to do at various stages and how to progress. Thank you!!
You're most welcome! I'm glad you found the video insightful. Best wishes, Ashley.
Just wanted to thank you for this video! Have had this pain for several weeks now but feeling much better after 3 days already!
You're absolutely welcome! Glad to hear your progressing well already! Please keep me posted on your recovery. Best wishes, Ashley.
WHAT A LIFE SAVER! Glad I found you.
Thank you! I hope it helped. Let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Ashley.
Totally agree this video is the most informative I’ve seen. The treatment has helped me to get this condition under control and ease the pain I have had for several months now. Thanks
Hi Pauline,
You're most welcome! I'm so glad you found the video helpful. Do keep me posted on your progress. Wishing you a smooth recovery! Best wishes, Ashley.
We are both in our 80's and still believe in having a strong body and a calm mind. This was an excellent video and we learned a lot. We are doing research for our new YT channel that is all about healthy aging. Thank you so much and keep up the great work!
Thank you for this comment I hope you learned something that you can pass on to your viewers. I hope your channel continues to grow and you enjoy the process. Best wishes, Ashley
Best advice I've seen so far.
Thanks👍
You're most welcome @My-Max-Media ! Glad to hear the video was informative. Let me know how it goes with the stretches. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thank you so much, the best I've seen, comprehensive and I have complete confidence in what you're saying. Brilliant!
Thank you! I hope it helped. Best wishes, Ashley.
Excellent routine. Been struggling with this for months thank you.
I'm so sorry to hear about your struggles with elbow pain. Have you tried any of the exercises yet? Please do let me know which are most helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery from the PWG family. Best wishes, Ashley.
I had tennis elbow for months, I thought I got better, so off to my HIIT class, and lifted some light weight, then pain came back! I found your video just now and watched carefully it seemed great and makes a lot of sense, will certainly do what you suggested in the video, thank you.
You are most welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. Do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
The most amazing thing is that you have experienced it and found ways to get better! I love how practical and informative this video is. Thank you so much for making this video. I’ve learned a lot in only 20 mins. Please make more of this good stuff!
Thank you, Rehab B. I'm glad you found the video informative. Best wishes, Ashley
This was the first video to explain what tennis elbow is, and what's happening to cause the pain. Great! The 3 phase approach to treatment is so sensible as well as your approach to exercises, which are well explained. I will have to watch again to practise the exercises, but am looking forward to improvement and re-strengthing my elbow . Cheers.
Thank you so much for the clear and detailed demonstrations and explanations! God bless you🙏
It is very helpful when you use the muscle model for your explanations... please more of it !
Thank you! Is there anything else you want to know more about? Best wishes, Ashley
I've been dealing with tennis elbow for the past 10 months, have been very discouraged, and have watched many different videos about it on TH-cam. This is the most thorough explanation of both the causes and best exercises to recover from it that I've seen. I really appreciate it.
You're welcome! I'm so sorry to hear about your tennis elbow issues. Have you tried any of the stretches yet? Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.
Amazing. After watching so, so many videos. This is the best!
Thank you so much! I hope it helped. Best wishes, Ashley.
Your exercise routine makes a lot of sense, it particularly seems to me to be the one routine I need to aid the pain in the area, which at times is too much. Are there any effective remedies that I can apply on the days I do not exercise? If so, what would you recommend? The explanation is clear concise and to the point, therefore very easy to follow.Thank you so much!
Thank you! SO helpful! You are great at what you do! Massaging the muscle is helping a lot at this point in my recovery.
Thank you for the kind words Jeanie and you're absolutely welcome! Glad to hear the massage technique is helpful. Please let me know how you progress. Wishing you a speedy recovery from all of us hear at PWG! Best wishes, Ashley.
Thank you! Your explanations are clear, straight to-the-point. Some others add all sorts of banter & chit-chat which just wastes viewers time; we're in pain! Also, that anatomical prop showing the muscles and tendons was really useful, for those of us whose studies are not in anatomy. Subscribed!
Hi Vere. Glad to hear that you find my content helpful. Wishing you a steady recovery. Please keep me posted on how it goes. Best wishes, Ashley.
I got hurt when I did the last of lateral raises. The pain did not go away for two months before I went to a doctor. He suggested that I have a hot pack on the inflamed area. It improved a lot in just four days, and then I will follow your steps. I am so grateful to see this flim by coninstance. Thank you.
Thanks for the tips. Eccentric stretching is important- lengthens the tendon. Lacrosse ball is a good one- I used to roll it, now I just apply to pressure point.
Excellent video. I've been in pain and stopped cycling, filling kettles and doing any planks etc in yoga...not really improving so I am definitely going g to try the 3 phases you describe and work carefully towards the stretching and exercises. Thank you so much for sending out this great clear and informative YT video.
You're absolutely welcome Jo! So glad to hear the video was insightful. Do let me know how it goes with the stretches. Best wishes, Ashley.
Did it help? How are your elbows now?
Finally I’ve found a video that full explains the condition and breaks the recovery down into 3 phases which seems absolutely the right thing to do. After having followed the daily exercises from NHS practitioner ( who hasn’t even seen me so based on a phone consultation) I now know why all i am doing is aggravating the condition ( exercises contain all 3 phases at once which is at odds with your view). After having suffered for 6 months I think I need to concentrate on phase 1. Thanks
You're most welcome Kevin! I'm so thrilled to hear the video was insightful. Please do keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.

I was just diagnosed with tennis elbow and I was so lost. Thank you for your help.
After massaging with a lacrosse ball, feeling a lot better, tried many other suggestions from my other PTs on TH-cam, but only this worked for me! Thank you!
I tried everything! This video and advice saved me a trip to a specialist. Within a day of doing these exercises, I am finally getting some relief. I had just about given up, but I can now see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you!
That's great to hear! I hope you continue to make improvements. Let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Ashley.
I've been experiencing some tennis elbow pain, these exercises has been extremely helpful.
That's great to hear! Glad you found the exercises helpful. Let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Ashley.
This was so helpful! I injured my right elbow the weekend before Easter, and am still in that first phase because I've been jumping the gun trying to stretch and work it out when it's not been ready. 😓 Thank you for such a thorough explanation on this type of injury, and especially explaining the phases and when/how to move forward. I'm not doctor, but I do believe I've set myself back so many times already due to not knowing the phases. Thank youuuu 🥰
You're most welcome, Crystal! Glad you found the video helpful. I'm so sorry to hear about your elbow injury. Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.
This was extremely helpful as I’ve been suffering from painful tennis elbow for over a month now. Have started to do the stretching and work with the lacrosse ball and feel like I’m making some progress now. Patience and not overdoing the lifting is going to be my biggest challenge. Much appreciated!
You are most welcome! Glad to hear that you found the video helpful. Please let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
I do a lot of heavy, repetitive lifting at work, very hand strength heavy, have had tennis elbow for a few weeks now, feels like fire, so hard to get time off work or avoid lifting, worried I'm gonna have to leave my job to get enough rest.
You are a very talented therapist. Thank you so much or sharing this.
This really helps. Why does my doctor just say rest for a few months when everyone should be doing this 😂😂
You're most welcome Alex! I'm glad you found the video insightful. I hope you continue to make improvements! Best wishes, Ashley.
Fantastic! You make great videos! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you Leandro! I appreciate your comment. Best wishes, Ashley
Hi. I recently developed tennis elbow from mountain biking riding enduro style where one uses brakes constantly meaning that the 2 pointer fingers are on the levers and are pulling on them as one rides over very steep and also rough terrain. No stretch helped me until I got to your video and immediately did the ball pressure exercise and the pain is already 60% less.
Thank you. 🌞
Thank you so much. I never had tennis elbow before but the pain am going through is so much. So watching your clip and did the exercise that you shows it works so well. Thanks again
You're most welcome @Ayaan Osman ! Glad to hear you're making great progress. Please keep me posted on your recovery. Best wishes, Ashley.
Amazing, inspiring video. 60 years old suffering for 4 months, (overdoing push-ups-caused me this painful ..) just found this video. I will definitely give it a try before going to a physiotherapist. I just love that part when you say go very slow, don't overdo it. we people tend to do it for sure. I just can't thank you enough for this amazing video.
Thank you! I'm so sorry to hear about your struggles with elbow pain. Have you tried any of the exercises yet? Please do let me know which are most helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery from the PWG family. Best wishes, Ashley.
Did this end up helping your tennis elbow?
This video is great, thank you! First time i've had some sort of relief from elbow pain, and it only took five minutes. Looking forward to at some point being able to lift things again :)
That's great to hear! I hope you continue to make improvements. Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.
Big thanks from Bangkok, Thailand. I’ve been suffering with this pain for year. After reading all the positive reviews It gave me the strength to try again with hope. If I recover from this suffering I will come back to inform you again. Thanks
Glad to hear that the video has motivated you. Hope to hear back from you with positive remarks. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thank you so much. I have had this for about a year it's just gotten worse. I have done some of what you explained and it feels better already. I can't thank you enough for your wonderful explaination of what to do and how to do it. Your a life saver, as this is some of the worse pain I have ever experienced. Keep up the great work....THANK YOU!!!
Hi Anthony. I am glad that the video has been helpful. All the best in your recovery. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thanks so much. I’ve been struggling with this pain for some time and it’s been a problem for me at work especially. Your video is excellent! The information you explain and your delivery is perfect. Thanks again for helping me.

I’ve had it for over 6 months. It started while lifting at the gym. I just muscled through it and never had it looked at. Fast forward to now. My coworker told me what it was so here I am. I’m gonna try these stretches. Thank you for the video.
Hi Ed,
You're most welcome! Sorry to hear about your struggle with Tennis elbow. Have you seen a doctor about it? Do let me know how it goes with the stretches. I hope they help. Best wishes, Ashley.
Any luck? I've got it now and also just want to push through it,don't want to go without gym..was it the same pain throughout whole 6 months or did it get better?
Thank you. very helpful. ever since I have been doing your instructions, I feel much better
That's great to hear! I hope you continue to make improvements. Do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thanks so much for this indepth explanation and tips! It really helped me recover from the tennis elbow
That's great to hear! You're absolutely welcome @clody731! I hope you continue to make improvements. Best wishes, Ashley.
Lol, I did the stretch as I watched the video and received some relief. I'm an arborist and this is a very common problem in our industry. Great video!
You're most welcome! Glad to be of assistance! I hope you continue to make improvements! Best wishes, Ashley.
I have tennis elbow for the first time in my life. It’s been going on for a few weeks. I think it’s because I sleep in awkward positions which put a strain on my arm and have taken up knitting which has made things worse! I’m also a teacher and have been marking incessantly lately. I’ve been watching anything I can on TE treatment but you’re the only one who stresses the importance of the three phases, which other PTs don’t even mention at all. I started stretching exercises which have only increased the pain I’m in. I’m going to go back to the beginning and try to massage the pressure points first to deal with the pain. Thanks so much!
Hi Win. If you are experiencing any pain or your condition is getting worse because of the stretches/exercises, I would recommend that stop them and visit your doctor. Best wishes, Ashley.
The best video for my pain.Thank you! ☀️
You're most welcome! I hope it helped. Best wishes, Ashley
Very clear. You filled in what the hand doctor did not say about phases for recovery
. I also was able to understand that activities other than my first thought about injury cause, which might have led me to the problem, which I considered just my normal duties (e.g. lifting a heavy table out of the way myself to sweep.)
Thank you so much Alexander! Glad to hear the video was informative. How are you fairing now? Best wishes, Ashley.
Thanks for the tips! I’ve had a tennis elbow for 4 months now. We’ll incorporate these in my routine. 🙏🏼
You're most welcome @FiloInSydney! Glad to hear the video was helpful. Please do let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Ashley.
Did it help? How is your elbow now?
Thank you for tutorial, hopefully i can get rid the pain soon. Playing tennis without any warming up, I got tennis elbow for a month
I'm so sorry to hear about your elbow pain issues. Have you tried any of the stretches yet? Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.
I did the exercises and totally worked.. I was surprised how effective it was.. I subscribed to the channel and loved it...
Most thorough and professional video i've seen on Tennis elbow
You're most welcome. I'm glad the video shed light on your tennis elbow. Have you tried any of the stretches yet? Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.
I definitely am gonna try the exercises shown in this video because I've been dealing with this pain for over six months now. Thank you good sir for the precise explanation of tennis elbow and whatever you've said, it is exactly the same thing with the pain and so on.
Hi @Kay Kay Do,
You're absolutely welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. Please keep me posted on your progress! Wishing you all the best with your recovery! Best wishes, Ashley.
Did you get well?
Did this ever work? Curiously, not many replies that it fixed their problem.
Good to mention the three stages. Most other physiotherapists seem not to know about them. It likely makes a difference in therapy sequences.
Hi @Guido Vanhaleweyk,
Thank you! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Best wishes, Ashley.
This video has just gave me relief from months and months of elbow pain, now I'm heading over to the golfers elbow video.
Thank you so much for this.
Thank you so much! Glad you found the video helpful. Do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
best info on the subject ive seen so far! thanks!
Thank you! I hope it helped. Best wishes, Ashley.
Excellent video - thank you. I developed tennis elbow as a result of lots of ironing and clipping threads while making masks! I now work only 3 days a week (M,W,F) to give my muscles a break. I've had physio on my elbow and am now wearing a brace. I'm slowly starting the stretches and lots of icing and the pain is slowly subsiding. I have to keep working until we no longer have to wear masks here in Canada so I guess my question is, by continuing to work 3 days a week, am I doing more harm than good on the elbow even though it's healing. I'm hoping once the masks are done, my are returns to normal!
I've watched many videos on elbow pain and yours really describes what I'm feeling... And I appreciate that you focus on relieving the pain 1st as opposed to just getting into stretching and strengthening. Great video... very informative... thank you.
Hi Steve,
You're most welcome! I'm so glad you found the video informative. Exactly, its important to get out of pain first before starting stretches to avoid any further damage. What phase of recovery are you in? Do let me know. Best wishes, Ashley.
this is by far the best and most comprehensive video ive watched on tennis elbow so far!! big thanks!
You're most welcome. I'm glad the video was able to shed light on your tennis elbow cause. Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.
This is a fantastic video, very clear with precise advice and very considered steps to take. Videos like this is why the internet can be so good and positive. Thanks you so much for this. I’ll get on with your advice immediately.
Thanks so much for this. Your advice is really helping. I was playing guitar too much, didn't think it was possible, but I ended up with a lot of pain in my fret side arm.
You're most welcome! Glad to hear the video was helpful. Do let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Ashley.
Hey i have the same issue with guitar. Is your arm better now? Anything in particular you did to help? Did you stop playing guitar much? Thanks.
I am soo grateful. This has been bothering me since Jan 2021. The simple explanation helped me understand what is happening.
You're most welcome Delia! Glad to hear the video was informative. How are you doing now? Have you tried any of the stretches yet? Do let me know. Best wishes, Ashley.
@@PrecisionWellbeing hi bro
Am Polet Khan from Bangladesh.
My right elbow broken last one year ago, when i did accident that time i went hospital i make x-ray but x-ray results was no fracture. But second time x-ray saw the my Elbow broken.
Give me any suggest for me
This video is so well done! Thank you. I am sure it will help a lot of people. I will look on your channel for one about bursitis which is also an elbow issue that my husband has been diagnosed with.
I like many people with pain in the elbows thank you for producing this video, there are lots of self help stuff on youtube but your explanation was very well done. Good team effort. Thanks
You're absolutely welcome! I'm so glad to hear the video was helpful! Please do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thanks, this was really more helpfull than a trip to the doktor 🙏
You're most welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. Best wishes, Ashley.
This is really helpful. Thank you! I like how you break down the 3 stages. Stretching and strengthening have not been working lately and in fact, have made things worse. So massaging only for now is the solution for me since the area is so inflamed and painful. The way you explain the difference between rolling the ball vs. putting pressure on trigger points around the painful area has made a world of difference.
Hi @Gaëlle Gourgues ,
That's great to hear! So glad to hear the video proved helpful. I hope you continue to make improvements. Let me know how you get on. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thank you very much for this informative and extremely useful video. I started doing this yesterday and the pain subsided by the next day. Great job
That's great to hear Robert! I hope you continue to make improvements! Keep me posted. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thank you so much for the details been struggling for a long time im trying it now and its really helps slowing down the pain.🙏
You're absolutely welcome Ailyn! Glad to hear the video provided insight on how to handle your tennis elbow. Please do let me know how it goes with the stretches. Best wishes, Ashley.
This was just what I needed! I'm a climber and started having lateral epicondyle pain a few weeks ago, took a couple of weeks off climbing and tried to rest it. The pain subsided but would just flare up whenever I did anything like picking up a kettle or even pinching a ziploc bag closed. Your point about massaging to relieve tension in the extensor muscles is brilliant; it just made 80% of my pain disappear like magic in 5 minutes!
Hi Jude,
I'm so glad to hear the video proved helpful. I presume you are in phase 1 so the massage and a cold pack will do you a lot of good. Keep on with the treatment plan and let me know how it goes. Wishing you a smooth recovery. Best wishes, Ashley.
Did the pain go away completely?
Did it fully fix your problem?
Thank you a lot, I have both a tennis elbow AND a golfer elbow on my right arm, this helped. Anything to do for the golfer elbow?
I can certainly do a video about golfers elbow at some point. The advice is still the same but the exercises are opposite for golfers elbow. I hope that makes sense. Best wishes, Ashley
@@PrecisionWellbeing That makes sense, thank you to confirm it.
This video of yours is just perfect! All I wanted to know, nothing more, nothing less. Also the way you present it all is an absolute pleasure. Thank you so much!
You are most welcome. Glad to hear that it was helpful. Best wishes, Ashley.
Thank you very much for taking some of your valuable time to help and educate us on an issue that brings us pain and slow us of stops us from having a normal day. I quite appreciate how you use the term 'In my opinion' which to me it tell me you have done some work that gives you experience and you are not just bad mouthing other people. Once again thank you.
cheers. How about a stress ball - can this give relief and build up tendon strength by way of squeezing in different areas of the hand?
If you have any info lmk I’m 18 and I’ve been suffering with this for 2 years on both elbows and whenever I bend it my elbow bone moves and it’s really uncomfortable
I have a burning pain on the outside of both forearms, slightly "down" from the area you described in the video. My pain is constant, 24/7 even at rest. It didn't progress to being painful at rest, it started like that. In fact, it doesn't hurt more at use, but it "builds" up the pain, so that pain at use and at rest becomes worse. I've had this for over 4 months now with no change, except for that it goes up and down in "waves". It started from lots of Computer work in February. I can't find a painful point when I perform the stretches, and it's generally very hard to feel a stretch. My muscles are very tensed up in the forearms, and I've been unable to find any sort of relief. The constant pain quickly becomes unbearable for a few days if I sit at the computer for a few minutes, making life very difficult, as I'm a computer science graduate student... My doctor quickly labeled this as tennis elbow, do you think this might be something else, or can tennis elbow follow this pattern?
Look up Stretches and Exercises for your Brachialis Muscle. It sounds like this is what’s bothering you, if you extend your wrist or fingers and feel pain, it’s from the extensors in your forearm and Brachialis. Your Brachialis is engaged when sitting at a desk and arms bent at ~90deg. This deactivates the bicep and the stress is on that muscle and your forearm.
Thank you. This helped me understand my injury as well as how to treat it!
I broke my humerus in my right arm just above my elbow in October and I was just diagnosed with tennis elbow yesterday in the same arm. This video is incredibly helpful. Thank you so much!!
I suffered the same break many years ago on my left arm. Have had tennis elbow on and off ever since. Feels fine now, but lately my right elbow is acting up for no apparent reason, so here I am.
I’ve been dealing with this pain for over three weeks. I did these exercises, the pain was gone the next day. Thank you! I will be adding these to my daily stretching.
That's great to hear @jpreaume! I hope you continue to make good progress. Do keep me posted. Best wishes, Ashley.
@@PrecisionWellbeing I have not seen a doctor yet. I’m gonna start the stretches in the morning before work. I’ll come back and let you know how it went. Thank you again.
How did you sleep with this pain @jpreaume?
I’m literally in your shoes. But the vid just started for me.
@@fadezs2620 I had to sleep with my arm bent, hand on my chest. I also had to wear an elbow wrap. I followed the video, now the pain is gone. The worse pain was in the morning.
Great video, thank you so much for putting it out there and for your efforts, bless you 🙏
You're absolutely welcome Abdulrahman! Happy to hear the video was helpful. Best wishes, Ashley.
Let me take this opportunity to thank you, sir. I have been suffering for unexplainable pain on my left elbow and I it really bothered me.
I am feeling a lot better after trying the stretches you shared. GOD BLESS you sir!
Hey Conrad, Happy to hear that the stretches have helped. Do let me know which you found most effective. Best wishes, Ashley.
Great video. Really helpful to have an explanation of the problem in addition to the treatment advice.
Hi @Phil Wilkins,
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the video format. Have you tried any of the stretches already? Do let me know how it goes. Best wishes, Ashley.
Great advice, well articulated and I love the kettle example. Best of all the example of the real time examples of how long it may takes.
Thank you. Glad to hear that you liked the video. Best wishes, Ashley.
Wow, just gentle tried the rolling pin on my forearm, what a relief, taken 60% of the pain away already, thank you!
I'm happy to hear that! I hope you continue to make improvements. Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.
Great content. Having been suffering tennis elbow for quite some time now and trying some exercises in TH-cam, this video makes more sense. Thank you for putting this up!!!
You are most welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. Do let me know how it goes with the exercises. Best wishes, Ashley.
Amazing presentation!! Thank you!
