01-May-2024
This routine offers a holistic full-body approach to the treatment and prevention of medial epicondylitis / golfer's elbow from repetitive wrist and arm motions using a theraband and dumbbells.
The cause of golfer's elbow stems from repeating incorrect movements of the arm and the force of hitting a golf ball during the swing. This can lead to small tears in the tendon attachment at the elbow. Golfer's elbow is associated with the flexion of the fingers and the wrist where excessive force used to bend the wrist toward the palm. This can happen when swinging a golf club or pitching a baseball, for example.
We will address potential weaknesses in the trunk, hips, shoulders, elbows, wrist and hands as we gently address this condition. Since the elbow is not designed to rotate or bend sideways, it is important that the surrounding muscles are doing their job in the joints that produce these motions. You will need a set of light weights for wrist and hands and heavier dumbbells (optional) for larger muscles. A Theraband will be incorporated with several shoulder exercises as well.
