Reclaim Your Swing with Golfer's Elbow Massage Toronto

As an RMT, I will continue to offer high-quality therapeutic massage therapy treatments. In addition, with my additional education and training in functional neurology, I can offer patients an integrative approach that often has many longer-lasting benefits. Using a functional neurology-based therapy like P-DTR, we identify the movements that cause your symptoms, perform a specific treatment, retest the same movement after treatment, then provide you with the appropriate exercises for “homework” to solidify our results. Rest assured, I am also Certified and Licensed by the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario.

I often hear from my patients that they have tried nearly everything to resolve their issues or meet their fitness goals. Since every case is unique, this is why I have an initial assessment appointment for first timer visitors. It allows me to understand the problem better, ask the proper questions, and recommend the best treatment for your needs.

No, Golfer’s Elbow, also known as medial epicondylitis, is not exclusive to golfers. While the name suggests a connection to golf, this condition can affect anyone who repeatedly uses their forearm muscles, particularly those involved in gripping, twisting, or flexing the wrist. Golfer’s Elbow is an overuse injury that typically occurs due to repetitive stress on the tendons in the forearm, leading to inflammation and pain around the bony bump on the inside of the elbow.

Although golfers may be prone to this condition due to the repetitive swinging motion involved in their sport, it can also occur in individuals who participate in other activities that strain the same forearm tendons. These activities may include other sports like tennis, baseball, and weightlifting, as well as occupations that involve frequent and forceful hand or wrist movements, such as carpentry, plumbing, and painting.
Therefore, while Golfer’s Elbow is commonly associated with golfers, it is not exclusive to them and can affect individuals who engage in various repetitive arm movements or gripping actions.

Massage therapy for Golfer’s Elbow focuses on reducing inflammation, releasing tension in the affected muscles and tendons, improving blood circulation, and promoting healing. It helps alleviate pain, restore range of motion, and enhance overall recovery.
