缓解网球肘疼痛

轻度到中度网球肘通常在4-6次治疗后显示出明显改善。更严重或长期存在的情况可能需要8-12次。结合离心腕伸展练习能显著加速恢复。

减少引起肘部疼痛的活动（抓握、提举、重复伸展）。通常不需要完全休息，但避免最刺激的活动可以让肌腱在治疗间隙愈合。

在有明显炎症的急性发作期间，禁止在肱骨外上髁直接进行深层工作。在急性部位以外的一般前臂按摩仍然适合。随着炎症减少，逐渐加深的工作变得合适。

绝对可以——网球肘影响的非网球运动员比实际打球者更多。任何涉及重复抓握或腕部伸展的活动都可能导致：打字、开车、锤击、绘画或弹吉他。无论原因如何，前臂伸肌的按摩都有帮助。

For acute pain, a focused 60-minute session on the affected area is often sufficient. For chronic conditions, 90 minutes allows time to address both the primary pain site and the compensating muscles that tighten around it — lower back problems, for example, commonly involve hip flexors and hamstrings that a 60-minute session cannot fully cover. Your therapist will assess during the session and advise on follow-up frequency.
