Understanding Elbow Pain
Elbow pain can significantly impact daily life, affecting everything from simple tasks to work and hobbies. Repetitive motions, overuse, and sudden injuries can lead to pain and limited mobility. Often, the body's natural response is to restrict movement, which can worsen the problem.
How do you know what to do to avoid further complications and promote healing? Our team at PhysioFit Physical Therapy & Wellness is here to help you break this cycle and find effective relief. We offer personalized treatment plans designed to address the root cause of your elbow pain and restore function.
