Tennis Elbow vs. Golfer's Elbow: Finding Relief with SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology at Beacon of Life Chiropractic

Published April 2nd, 2024 by Beacon Of Life Chiropractic

In the quest for optimal health and mobility, understanding the nuances of common ailments is crucial. Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow, while often confused due to their similar nature, affect different areas of the elbow and are caused by distinct motions. Dr. Dan McClimon and his team at Beacon of Life Chiropractic in Royersford, PA are at the forefront of treating these conditions with an innovative approach: SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology (TRT)

This article delves into the causes, symptoms, and revolutionary treatment options for both tennis elbow and golfer's elbow, highlighting how Dr. Dan's expertise can lead to effective relief and recovery.

Tennis Elbow: Lateral Epicondylitis

Causes: Despite its name, tennis elbow isn't limited to tennis players. This condition arises from repetitive motions that extend the wrist or twist the forearm, leading to overuse and strain on the tendons that attach to the lateral epicondyle—the outer part of the elbow. Common activities causing tennis elbow include tennis, painting, using tools, and repetitive computer mouse use.

Symptoms: Tennis elbow manifests as pain and tenderness on the outside of the elbow, which can extend down the forearm. Grip strength may decrease, making it difficult to hold objects, turn doorknobs, or shake hands.

Golfer's Elbow: Medial Epicondylitis

Causes: Golfer's elbow affects the tendons connected to the medial epicondyle, the bony bump on the inside of the elbow. It results from activities that require forceful gripping or flexing of the wrist inward. While golfing can lead to this condition, other activities like throwing sports, weight training, and some types of work-related tasks can also be contributing factors.

Symptoms: The primary symptom of golfer's elbow is pain and tenderness on the inside of the elbow, sometimes extending along the inner aspect of the forearm. Stiffness, weakness, and difficulty with grip are also common.

SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology (TRT): A Revolutionary Approach to Elbow Pain

Recognizing the impact of these conditions on daily life, Dr. Dan McClimon employs SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology to offer a non-invasive, effective solution. SoftWave TRT works by delivering acoustic shockwaves to the affected area, initiating a cascade of biological responses:

  • Pain Reduction: SoftWave therapy modulates inflammation, directly addressing one of the primary sources of pain in both tennis and golfer's elbow.
  • Healing Promotion: By activating VEGF, eNOS, and BMP, the treatment enhances blood flow and oxygenation to the injured tissues, supporting the body's natural healing processes.
  • Tissue Regeneration: SoftWave TRT stimulates the migration and activation of stem cells, crucial for the repair and regeneration of damaged tendon tissues.
  • Recovery Acceleration: The therapy's ability to engage toll-like receptors and activate PCNA aids in quicker tissue repair and recovery, getting patients back to their favorite activities with reduced pain and improved function.
