Elbows
Tennis/golfer’s elbow
Massage increases blood flow to the affected tendons on either the inside or outside of the elbow to resolve inflammation and altered mechanics.
Ulnar nerve entrapment
Massage techniques like cross-fiber friction help release compression putting pressure on the ulnar nerve as it runs behind the inner elbow.
Tight forearm muscles
Massage aimed at overworked forearm flexors/extensors alleviates muscle tension from repetitive gripping and motions.
