Help for Tennis or Golf Elbow with Remedial Massage and Myofascial Release
Overview of Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is a painful condition that occurs when tendons in your elbow are overloaded, usually by repetitive motions of the wrist and arm.
Despite its name, athletes aren't the only people who develop tennis elbow. People whose jobs feature the types of motions that can lead to tennis elbow include plumbers, painters, carpenters and butchers.
The pain of tennis elbow occurs primarily where the tendons of your forearm muscles attach to a bony bump on the outside of your elbow. Pain can also spread into your forearm and wrist. Tennis elbow treatment involves remedial massage, deep tissue releases including myofascial release.
Rest and over-the-counter pain relievers often help relieve tennis elbow. If conservative treatments don't help or if symptoms are disabling, your doctor might suggest surgery. At Natural therapies with Soo, based in Mount Sheridan, serving Edmonton, White Rock and the wider Cairns region Soo has helped many clients restore the full function of their hands and arms by releasing the painful area. Book in to see Soo today, late and some weekend appointments are available.
Symptoms of Tennis Elbow
The pain associated with tennis elbow may radiate from the outside of your elbow into your forearm and wrist. Pain and weakness may make it difficult to:
- Shake hands or grip an object
- Turn a doorknob
- Hold a coffee cup

What is Aromatherapy Massage?
An aromatherapy massage is a gentle relaxing massage therapy using massage oil or lotion that contains essential oils (highly concentrated plant oils).
During an aromatherapy massage, you inhale these essential oil molecules or absorb them through your skin. They are thought to promote beneficial changes in your mind and body by affecting the limbic system, a region of the brain known to be involved in emotion.
The Oil Blend?
At Natural Therapies with Soo, Soo mixes a blend of essential oils most beneficial for you on your treatment day. Using essential oils, your condition for example stress, pain, depression, can be targeted to maximise the treatment benefits and make it last.
Each visit may involve a completely different blend of essential oil.
Any oil left after the massage is given to you to take home, as you smell the oils, it will help you remember the relaxed state you were in after your treatment.

Background: Lisa had been grappling with chronic anxiety and financial uncertainty for several years. Her history included frequent job changes, financial challenges, and difficulty in establishing a sense of home and security. These issues had taken a toll on her emotional and mental well-being.
Assessment: Lisa's symptoms were indicative of an imbalanced root chakra. She exhibited signs of insecurity, fear, and a lack of a strong support system, which had intensified as she entered her 40s. Her anxiety and instability were deeply rooted in her inability to ground herself and establish a sense of safety and stability.

- Nutritional Guidance: Lisa's diet was adjusted to include grounding foods suitable for her age, like whole grains and root vegetables. A balanced diet played a vital role in strengthening her physical and energetic foundation.
- Affirmations and Journaling: Lisa practiced age-appropriate affirmations related to safety and stability. She also maintained a journal to explore her feelings and experiences, which facilitated the identification and resolution of root chakra issues.
Progress and Results: Over several months, Lisa experienced significant improvements in her overall well-being. Her chronic anxiety diminished, and she began to feel more grounded and secure in her life, even in her 40s. This newfound stability translated into more consistent and grounded decisions regarding her career and finances. Additionally, she reported feeling more connected in her relationships and had a growing sense of belonging in her community.
Conclusion: This case study underscores the value of holistic approaches in healing the root chakra, regardless of age. By combining grounding techniques, meditation, crystal therapy, proper nutrition, and self-reflection, Lisa, a woman in her 40s, successfully restored balance to her root chakra.
