Medial elbow and forearm pain from repetitive gripping or wrist flexion. Common in golfers, climbers, tennis players and desk workers.
Golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis) affects the flexor and pronator muscles that attach to the inside of the elbow. When these are repeatedly overloaded, the tendon attachment becomes irritated and painful. Gripping, carrying or even shaking hands can aggravate it.
It's particularly common in golfers (from the swing), climbers (from sustained gripping), and anyone doing repeated pulling or wrist flexion movements — including some desk workers who type for long periods.
Treatment releases the forearm flexors and pronators through deep tissue work and trigger point therapy, combined with transverse friction at the tendon to promote healing. Unlike rest alone, which only reduces inflammation temporarily, massage addresses the underlying tension driving the problem. Most clients notice clear improvement after 2–3 sessions.
