Tennis Elbow ... might not be your elbow

Tennis Elbow might not be your elbow! 🎾💪🏾
.

I’ve been seeing a lot of people suffering from tennis elbow or tendonitis in the past few months, and know how tricky it is to treat. Tennis elbow can be really stubborn and I often find that the source of the pain isn’t in the elbow at all, but in the upper back and especially the neck. Our upper back and neck tension can create a cascade of pain into our arms and hands, and a good reminder to increase stretching especially in the neck. .
As you read this now, take a second to give your neck a good stretch from side to side, reach your arm behind your back and give a gentle pull on your head to the opposite side, and don’t forget to breath and allow the lungs to help circulate blood through the area of tension. .
Ahhhhhh #neckstretches #tenniselbow#tendonitis
