FT Questions....

[Scott Stevenson]

Anyone has any info on getting rid of golfers elbow It would be much appreciated.
I have been suffering for about 6 months with it now, took time off over Christmas and it didn't budge I've tried rolling it with a lacrosse ball stretches etc but don't seem to be getting anywhere.
Starting ft has helped me dodge exercises that cause me pain but being a builder I struggle to avoid causing pain to the area.
Thanks In advance

Hey Man!

I would go see someone in your area.  You'll likely need a combination of strategies in place all at once, including avoiding things that irritate.

When you say you're a "builder" do you mean bodybuilder or that you work in construction (or something else)?...   If the latter, it might be a workman's comp issue where you could find an OT and get treatment via insurance... 

I'm an acupuncturist who is trained in Tui Na and have treated tennis elbow effectively so you might try to find someone in your area, with a similar skillset. (A PT or MT or other practitioner who does ART might also be able to help.)  www.acufinder.com is a place to start to find an acupuncturist, but word of mouth a/o calling up a dojo where martial arts are practices could be a way to find someone who could help, too.
