[@manuelrivera9137]

Man I've had this issue for weeks now due to weight training. I immediately started doing these stretches and wow is all I can say. You are a life saver! God bless!

Greetings from Greece - Athens! Great! I had this pain coming each time I forced the tendon, specially after work out and diy hobbies. Today the pain was really strong! I helped it with some ice but the exercises were even better! Thanks!

[@user-ge2el7pp7v]

this is awesome thank you for posting this and amazing its free. I've been struggling for months as a weightlifter with tennis elbow (one worse than the other) and have done the second exercise to strengthen and just doing the first one for the first time sitting here, watching, I could feel it all the way to my elbow where the pain is. Kind of mad I couldn't figure out the positions of my hand by myself but glad I found this to teach me instead of living with the pain. Thank you

[@irislee2970]

I have had tenni elbow for 2 months and I came across ur video and did the first exercise. I am already seeing a big difference and reduction of pain..thank you and God bless you and all you do.

[@Asdasty]

Bro, that first exercise. Not sure if its just in my mind, but it reduced a lot of the pain.

[@Andrew-m4w2f]

Deadliest weapon on the planet is the Human mind! What created the atom bomb? An idea. Keep the idea that you are well and it will come. Not taking away from this video at all. Preparing the mind to do what you want it to do can take a life time! The human body is always regenerating a part of itself. Get your mindset right. Whatever exercise you do? Do it with perfect form and timing 💯 Two important things; Mindset and Focus!

[@ashleyanderson6392]

A new/different "loop" for the back of my cell phone that my middle finger slid into literally has caused this most painful tendonitis!! Cannot believe it.. just that extra weight pulling on my finger all the way to my elbow.. the other suggestions i got for healing this have not helped in the least ive been doing them for over a month. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I know these will help.. just doing them along with you i feel relief.. 🙏

[@RehabScience]

The cell phone loop causes the finger extensor muscles to be loaded and can definitely lead to tennis elbow. I would also encourage you to strengthen your finger extensor muscles with a tool like this one: amzn.to/3Pr19jG

[@justmejustme-z7n]

This is just what I needed. I’ve heard that strength training is key for tendon issues, and these exercises seem perfect.

[@RehabScience]

Strength training has the most research support for treating tendon pain. I hope these exercises help you!

It seems to have issue too when i use a computer mouse, pour a kettle or lift a coffee cup to my mouth. Will this ever go away? HELP!

[@Naughtism]

​@RehabScience excuse me sir, I have tendinitis in my shoulder and the elbow but I also feel it down the triceps. Basically the first exercise you shown where the nerve is is exactly where it hurts. Can it be the nerve causing this? I did the exercises you shown and they definitely feel like they will help. I've been dealing with this for a year and the doctors didn't help me at all, just gave me shots of stuff and said don't do anything for a month 😂 I can't do nothing physical for a month, my job is physical, so I have been suffering. I need new doctors

[@andreschiriff4354]

These exercises are excellent and is the first time that I do the 2 exercises. I have done on my own the reverse wrist curls and that helped me but these other two feel great. Thank you so much 👍

Thanks, very informational and to the point. These vids always give me hope, these chronic things always feel disheartening.

I’m so glad to hear that my videos are helpful and encouraging! There is often much we can do to help desensitize the pain system once we find the right exercises/movements to implement.

[@chayanoopp]

There is a small bump on the sore point, not sure if this is common and will go away once this heals. It’s been 3 months of excruciating pain. The exercises are definitely causing a lot of relief. Thank you.

You may be feeling the normal bump that is on the lateral epicondyle, which is the bone on the outside of the elbow. I’m glad to hear the exercises are helping so far!

In muskoka Canada we’ve gotten huge amounts of snow in a few weeks, which means a LOT of shovelling. Thank you for sharing this, I’ll be starting these exercises today.Hoping for some relief, especially since I don’t see the end of shovelling anytime before June!

The pain i feel is located on the inside of my forearm but these exercises numbed the pain instantly. Do you have a video of tendinitis pain that's located inside the forearm? I have another question, i hope you find the time to answer me. I never studied about the human body but I've been an athlete for four years believing that power and mind resilience is the answer to a great body... This philosophy crumpled once i was injured... I spent the last two months jumping from a hospital to the other, watching and reading online and none were able to give the right answer... I'm passionate about the humam body and i would like to learn, can your book cover years of your expertise? I mean i want to learn and work in this area without a degree... is it possible or reading one book is never enough to be qualified to heal an injured human who's looking for someone to trust?

[@lancelotlink6545]

I had tennis elbow for a number of months and tried every exercise and stretch I could find but it wasn't getting any better. I finally tried Aleve (naproxen) and it give me almost instant results. (other meds like ibuprofen didn't help me). Not a 100% healed yet but it's about 90% better now.

[@RehabScience]

Those medications can definitely help in many cases. However, we really want to make sure to continue strengthening the wrist extensor muscles and their tendons as we have seen in the research that this condition will typically return if you don't strengthen those tissues. Medication will help desensitize the area and reduce pain, but they won't stop the issue from coming back when you start stressing it again.

This was instant relief for me thanks so much.

[@Ron-Ayres]

Very good video with helpful advice and instructions. I have one suggestion for future visuals - would you consider doing the video facing a mirror please? For anyone neurodivergent, trying to reverse your movements because you are facing us is really difficult. In the same way that dance teachers teach with their _back_ to the class so dancers don't have to reverse all the movements in their head while they're learning the steps. Hope you might consider this option. Thank you very much! 🤗

[@m.l.miller219]

Before doing the exercises, is it advisable to do perhaps a quick finger massage on the affected area, and/or use a scraping tool to draw blood flow into the affected area? What is your opinion on using a scraping tool for therapy? Best therapy video I've seen yet on this problem. Thank you.

[@bpharesrcc]

At what stage of the injury should we start these exercises? I imagine it’s helpful to rest for a period of time after the pain first starts…? Is it ever too soon? Thank you!

[@jaime1706]

The first exercise that has helped with the tennis elbow forearm area pain. This is the first thing that has helped relieve the pain since this started 1 year ago. Imean, the first thin. I'm talking bracing, injections, EMG's twice! Showing the radial nerve to be normal, regardless of the herniated discs in C5-C7, even that part showed no nerves pinching. When I do the nerve flossing, although it helps the forearm pain, it's really hurting my wrist & thumb area. It's as if I can feel the radial nerve stretching in my wrist & thumb, but in a not pleasant painful way. I don't even know if that's the nerve or possible tendon. Any thoughts on that or advice to continue this exercise or to stop it??

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR the exercises. I am going to begin them starting today. Should I wear the tennis elbow band support while performing these exercises?

You're welcome! Please don't wear a band during the exercises as the band will make the exercises less effective. Bands are okay to wear during activities that aggravate the area, but you don't want to use them during your rehab exercises.

Six years ago I tried platelet rich plasma injections as an experiment to “cure” tennis elbow. It worked pretty well for me. There are no pertinent scientific data, as far as I know. The problem recently returned on the left side, but the right has been pain-free since about 2 months after the injections. The injections were EXTREMELY painful. Cost was about $1200, not covered by insurance.

In most cases, we recommend performing these exercises every day. If your symptoms worsen, then you could switch to every other day.
