Problem: What is Causing my Elbow Pain?

The pain in your elbow comes from the weak muscles that anchor into your elbow that help give you gripping abilities in the hands and wrist. In other words if you have weak grip in the hands and wrist you will have pain in your elbows. The other reason you have pain is the micro tears that are created in the tendon on the elbow. Over time these micro tears will create micro blood vessels that will invade the tendon and create inflammation and pain. Just think of these micro blood vessels as weeds that get into a garden.

Solution: Strengthen your Grip & De-weed your tendon

Just think all the time you spend at a computer, holding your cell phone or driving a car. Then you go out and exercise with weights, play golf, tennis, pickle ball, work in yard or use a screw gun or hammer. Ouch!! that will lead to inflammation and pain in the elbow. The simple solution is to strengthen your grip and treat the anchor points on your elbow. Shock wave has enough mechanical forces to de-weed the tendon in the elbow. Once you have less micro blood vessels in the tendon the better you will feel because the tendon is stabilized and can function properly with out pain.
