Trigger Point therapy - Taping for Tennis Elbow

Tennis elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis), is the most common elbow overuse injury in the adult population, and causes the bony prominence on the outside of the elbow to become tender and sore. In the more severe cases, the pain may become debilitating.

This condition is usually related to strain or overuse of the muscles attaching to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus or, less frequently, a direct trauma.

Typically, the extensor muscles of the forearm, which extend and straighten the wrist, become strained from overuse, causing inflammation at the attachment to the bone.
