How to Get Rid of Golfer/Tennis Elbow Pain

By: Winwing

Pressure Point For Treating Elbow Pain

Sometime back, I suffered very bad golfer elbow pain through playing golf. As most peopleknow, the reason was particularly due to repeatedly impact on the elbow due to the improper work or spots postures. Referred twice my family doctor and was given injection on both occasions and eventuallywas even told that therewill not be the third time as he would put me under surgery to repair the tendons. Personally, I was quite afraid and feeling very down when the doctor stated that. Since I could not just rely on doctor, I turned to Chinese physicians.

Through recommendations from my golfer friends I havevisited quite a number of physicians and various treatment were given including acupuncture, massage treatment and even taking the self-boiled Chinese herbs with special herbal formula. All measures seem to be temporarily, the pain returned after about just few days. No choice, I have been wearing the lower arm pressure band to control the pain during games and even normal living.

During an unintentional visit to the town library, while my wife was having shopping, came across one Chinese book describing about the tradition finger pressure method of removing pain. Read through and found that there was also treatment for elbow pain even with sketches. Borrowed it and practiced for about three days and the pain has reduced about 50% and was totally cured after one week. I have translated and include in this article and hopefully it useful those who need this information. The chapter stated that:

“Acupuncture Point Pressure Method” can get rid of the golfer/tennis elbow within a short period of time if it is being practiced correctly. The main reason is that the pressure point method helps to release or loosen the tension of the tendon. As such, find the two pressure points and start the treatment:

1. To locate the first pressure point

It is very simple to find the first point, softly band your elbow and face the palm towards your chest. Take the entire length from the point A to B as one; the first pressure point is being one-third from the point A.

To check that you are pressing the right pressure point 1, when force is being applied, you can feel it moves the finger tips as well. Next, use your index or middle finger to apply pressure on the point for four seconds and repeat 3 to 7 times.

2. To locate the second pressure point

When lifted the shoulder to level, two hollow portions can be found, the one on the front is the correct pressure point 2. As the muscles over the shoulder area are much stronger that those on the lower arm, you will need to use your thumb to apply vertical pressure onto this pressure point. Likewise, apply force for about four seconds and repeat for 3 to 7 times.

It is advisable to perform the complete set three times a day. Try it, it worked well for me.
