Is Golfer’s Elbow Affecting Your Swing?
Whether you’re an amateur or a seasoned golfer, persistent elbow pain, stiffness, or discomfort can significantly impact your game. Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis) occurs due to repetitive stress on the tendons, causing pain along the inner elbow and forearm.
If you’re struggling with gripping your club, swinging without pain, or recovering after a game, it’s time to address the root cause. Soft Tissue Therapy is the key to unlocking pain relief, improving mobility, and keeping you on the course.
Why Does Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylar Pain) Occur?
Golfer’s Elbow, or medial epicondylitis, is caused by repetitive stress on the tendons and muscles of the forearm, leading to pain on the inner elbow. Overuse from gripping, swinging, and improper mechanics can strain the forearm flexors, leading to inflammation, weakness, and discomfort.
✅ Flexor Carpi Ulnaris – Key muscle involved in wrist flexion and gripping.
✅ Flexor Carpi Radialis – Affects wrist stability and flexion.
✅ Pronator Teres – Influences forearm rotation and grip strength.
✅ Palmaris Longus – Supports wrist flexion and overall forearm function.
✅ Flexor Digitorum Superficialis – Assists with finger and hand movement.
✅ Brachioradialis – Connects elbow movement to wrist function.
✅ Triceps Brachii – Helps stabilize the elbow and reduces strain on the forearm flexors.
✅ Pectoralis Major – Affects shoulder positioning, impacting arm mechanics and forearm stress.
✅ Pectoralis Minimus – Assists in arm movement and shoulder stabilization, influencing elbow strain.
✅ Serratus Anterior – Supports scapular movement, affecting arm mobility and grip strength.
✅ Serratus Posterior Superior – Influences shoulder stability, indirectly affecting the elbow’s movement patterns.
Targeted neuromuscular therapy can help release tension, restore mobility, and reduce pain in these muscles. Book an appointment today to relieve elbow pain and improve your swing!
How Soft Tissue Therapy Resolves Golfer’s Elbow & Improves Mobility
At Elite Recovery Sports Therapy, we use Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release, Lymphatic Drainage, and Frederick Stretch Therapy (FST) to target the root causes of chronic golfer’s elbow and restricted movement.
💪 Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT)
Releases trigger points contributing to elbow and forearm tension.
Reduces muscle tightness restricting wrist and grip movement.
Improves nerve function to prevent recurring pain and inflammation.
🩸 Myofascial Release
Loosens tight fascia compressing the forearm and elbow tendons.
Restores proper blood flow to reduce stiffness and inflammation.
Enhances joint mobility to support pain-free golf swings.
💉 Lymphatic Drainage
Reduces inflammation contributing to chronic golfer’s elbow.
Detoxifies the body by eliminating built-up toxins in overused muscles.
Enhances immune function to promote long-term recovery.
💪 Frederick Stretch Therapy (FST)
Increases flexibility in the forearm, wrist, and elbow.
Decompresses joints to relieve nerve irritation affecting grip strength.
Improves circulation for faster recovery from golfer’s elbow pain.

Forearm Stretch for Instant Relief:
Extend your arm forward with your palm facing up.
Use your opposite hand to gently pull your fingers back toward your body.
Hold for 20-30 seconds and switch sides.
Repeat 2-3 times daily for best results.
This simple stretch reduces tension in the forearm flexor muscles, improving grip strength and reducing strain on the elbow.

Golfer’s elbow often builds over time due to overuse, poor mechanics, or muscular imbalances. A single session won’t fix years of built-up tension, but consistent soft tissue therapy can restore function, eliminate pain, and prevent future issues.
