Tennis Elbow Treatment in Vellore
Pain on the outer elbow with gripping, lifting, or shaking hands — common in desk workers, tradesmen, and racquet players.
Tennis elbow is overload of the common extensor tendon on the outside of the elbow. Rest alone rarely fixes it; graded loading exercises do.

- Tenderness just below the bony point on the outside
Benefits
- •Slow, heavy loading of wrist extensors
- •Ergonomic changes
- •Progressive strength work
Trade-offs
- •Complete rest for weeks
- •Deep massage that spikes pain
- •Continuing painful gripping tasks unchanged

"Loved the transparency. Cost sheet given upfront for the entire tennis elbow program, no hidden add-ons. Sessions started and ended on time. Reception team even coordinated with my Ola driver for pickup."
Radhika R.Thorapadi, Vellore - Oct 2025
"Great experience from Walajapet. Clean clinic, air-conditioned rooms, latest equipment for tennis elbow rehabilitation. The therapist speaks Tamil, English and Hindi so my in-laws had no issue explaining their symptoms."
Aishwarya K.Walajapet, Vellore - May 2025
"a small business owner here from Ranipet. Had chronic tennis elbow for over a year. What worked was pain-education plus graded exercise, not endless machines. Now I sleep through the night and go for morning walks pain-free."
Bhuvana G.Ranipet, Vellore - Apr 2025
"Booked a home visit for my mother's tennis elbow in Katpadi. One-on-one attention, honest pricing, no unnecessary sessions. WhatsApp reminders and follow-ups made the recovery smooth. Highly recommend for anyone looking for evidence-based physio in Vellore."
Sowmya N.Katpadi, Vellore - Feb 2025
"Sports injury from local cricket — my tennis elbow was ruining my season. The return-to-sport protocol here is elite: force-plate testing, criteria-based progression, sport-specific drills. Back on the field in 6 weeks, stronger than before."
