Revalidation

Your rehabilitation is specifically aimed at the goals you set yourself. In order to quickly get the pain under control, it is very important to significantly reduce the load and to function as pain-free as possible.
In addition, the Mulligan concept can contribute to a rapid recovery from both tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. Taping and dry needling can also have a positive influence on getting the pain under control. When the pain has subsided, exercise therapy can be started to restore the load capacity of the arm to the old level.
If the complaints come from your neck, this condition will be treated with the Mulligan concept or with manual therapy.
