Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) causes pain on the outer elbow from overuse and micro-tearing of the wrist extensor tendons. Despite the name, it's common in non-athletes — particularly desk workers, drivers, and anyone performing repetitive gripping or typing. The forearm extensor muscles tighten, increasing tension on the lateral epicondyle and perpetuating the pain cycle.
Massage for tennis elbow focuses on the wrist extensor muscles of the forearm — the muscles whose tendons attach to the painful lateral epicondyle. Reducing tension in these muscles directly reduces the pulling force on the attachment point, allowing the tendon to heal. Cross-fiber friction at the tendon insertion, combined with general forearm release, is the most effective approach.
Our therapists recommend these massage types for massage for tennis elbow relief
Release tension through targeted pressure point therapy.
Why it helps: Shiatsu provides the precise, sustained pressure needed to work the forearm extensor muscles and apply cross-fiber friction at the lateral epicondyle.
Release the tension your day builds up above the shoulders.
Why it helps: For tennis elbow with referred pain from the neck or shoulder, addressing the cervical nerve roots and shoulder muscles upstream can reduce arm symptoms.
