Physiotherapy can effectively treat a number of problems in the hands and elbows that often arise as a result of overuse, repetitive motion or injury. Typical disorders such as tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, mouse arm, tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome and wrist fractures require a specialized approach to reduce pain and restore normal function.
Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow are caused by overuse of the tendons around the elbow. Symptoms include pain and reduced grip strength, which can be alleviated with targeted exercises, manual therapy and ergonomic guidance.
Mouse arm often occurs as a result of repetitive movements, such as when using a computer. The treatment focuses on relieving stress, training the muscles of the forearm and adapting the workplace to prevent future discomfort.
