How Did I Cure My Tennis Elbow?

Seeing that I do not play tennis at present and have not played it for at least 20 years, I never thought about my pain symptoms being due to tennis elbow. I also never thought I would have to struggle in order to really cure my tennis elbow.

Now I have to admit that I am not a big fan of taking pain medication or any medication for that matter so I just stubbornly bit through the sour apple and endured the pain, although I did start to rest my elbow in positions the pain would not be very noticeable.

At first that seemed to work but after a while the pain starting becoming more nagging and more present when doing every day stuff.

Still not wanting to reside to painkillers but aware that I should take action, I decided to find out why I was hurting.

That is right!

After learning more about this condition, about the tennis elbow symptoms, the different tennis elbow treatments and just what happens when you experience tennis elbow pain I preferred learning some techniques to reduce the pain instead of residing to pain killers.

You see, I am a massage therapist for horses and in my industry it is very common to go for painkillers and cortisone injections whenever a horse shows signs of pain, instead of locating the underlying issue and working on it in order to completely solve it.

It was out of frustration towards this way of treating problems in animals that I decided to train and become a massage therapist. And it is because of this background that I was able to find a good treatment plan to cure my tennis elbow instead of just masking the symptoms.

Basically I applied the same sort of approach to my problem as I would use when applying massage and stretching techniques to horses. Now this might sound weird to you, but if you come to think of it, muscles, bones and joints are the same whether they are human or belonging to a horse.

The same theories apply on the same type of structures and tissue. Ok so maybe the shape is not the same nor the movements, but the foundation really is the same.

So I figured I should look for an approach that would not only reduce the pain but that also would offer me a long-term solution without having to reside to painkillers.
