🎾 Feeling Inspired by Wimbledon - But Your Elbow’s Holding You Back?

Wimbledon season has arrived, and for many of us, that means dusting off the racket and heading to the court. But what if every backhand comes with a jolt of pain? If your elbow’s keeping you off the court, you could be dealing with tennis elbow - and no, you don’t need to be a tennis player to get it.

At Body Zest, we see patients year-round with this frustrating and often misunderstood condition. The good news? You don’t have to live with it.

What Is Tennis Elbow?

Tennis elbow (clinically known as lateral epicondylitis) is a painful condition affecting the outer part of the elbow. It’s caused by overuse or repetitive strain of the forearm muscles, leading to tiny tears in the tendons that attach to the outside of the elbow.

Despite the name, you don’t need to play tennis to suffer from it. We treat everyone from racket-sport enthusiasts to office workers, gardeners, and gym goers.

Common Symptoms of Tennis Elbow:

  • Pain or burning on the outside of the elbow

  • Weak grip strength

  • Discomfort when lifting, gripping, or twisting

  • Pain that worsens with movement but eases with rest

Left untreated, tennis elbow can drag on for months—or even become chronic.

Why Now Is the Time to Tackle It

With Wimbledon in full swing, plenty of people feel inspired to get active again. But elbow pain can stop you before you even step on court. Early intervention can make all the difference. The longer you leave it, the harder it becomes to treat.
