ERS one of my viewers requested a video for tennis elbow and golfer's elbow so right now I'm going to
show you tennis elbow how you can treat tennis elbow which is lateral epicondylitis it's right
here and lateral because you're in an anatomical position this is the radius so this is if you're
an anatomical position this is lateral this is medial this is the golfer's elbow this is
tennis elbow or lateral epicondylitis and you want to go ahead and warm up the muscle do some
some Strokes that is going to warm up this muscle here really actually all the extensors
all the extensors are involved I like to do some skin rolling here
and skin rolling should have been done before I applied the oil not after you want to work out
also the insertion of the correctialis remember all the muscles connect from one joint to the
next they move the arms so it's important for you to warm up all the muscles of the arm
and when you start doing a little bit more of the detail after you've done your skin
rolling and warming up the tissues and if they have inflammation you might want to use some
ice to bring down the inflammation first so when you've once you've you know pinpoint exactly the
epicondyle right here you have all the extensors or most of the extensors that originate there so
what you're going to have your client do is to extend the wrist flex and extend the wrist while
you can hold it and this will this is some pin and stretch right there that you can do
and you can do this three four five times depending on how bad it is okay then you
have to relax relax and you want to go all the extensors all the way up one inch at a time
make sure that if you're going to use your thumbs that they're together you're not putting too much
pressure on them you can also use a soft fist a soft fist where you fold it like a taco and
then you hold at the wrist and then you go up and work all her extensors what are the
extensors do they extend to the wrist and the reason it's called tennis elbow is when because
when they're playing tennis and they're both hitting constantly on the racket it extends
the you know they you know the extensors here is extending and hurting and putting pressure
on them so you want to make sure and work out all the extensors another one that you can do one inch
at a time is you like you're going to shake their hand and you hold and then supinate and pronate
supinate and pronate supinate and pronate I'm going right up the lateral part of the radius
I can feel her radius supinating and pronating all the way up to the lateral epicondyle
and you can move another inch towards the middle part on the medial part of the radius
and supinate and pronate this is another technique that you can do I I always like this
one where you're treating now these would be the flexors where there's no hair flexors extensors
is where the hair is but I like to do this one because you're working both at the same time
I like the cross fiber
and of course you don't want to forget to work the wrist right you want to make sure and work
the wrist one of the things that you can do is you put your thumbs on top your fingers
on the bottom and you kind of push up with your fingers underneath and go through all the carpels
creating some movement and flexibility here a lot of times the carpals are just stuck
so you want to treat when you have the lateral epicondyle epicondylitis you want to make sure
and treat all the form the anterior and the posterior part which will be the extensors
and the fluxes because they go together right they work together so this is for the lateral
epicondylitis right here and hope that helped you till the next time create a great day [Music]
