“…Segretin et al (2016) treated 23 subjects with LE using eccentric exercises (supinator and wrist extensor muscles), stretching, and some self-exercises (transverse friction massage and stretching). There was a significant difference in grip strength after 3 months, which persisted after 6 months.…”

“…In a study of patients with LE to reduce stiffness of soft tissue, Ajimsha et al (2012) showed that pain and functional disability levels were reduced by interfering with myofascial release (MFR). Segretin et al (2016) showed significant differences in pain and grip strength as a result of intervention using eccentric exercise, stretching, and some daily self-exercises (transverse friction massage and stretching). Dilek et al (2016) showed significant differences in pain, grip strength, and function as a result of intervention with elastic taping.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the combined isotonic technique (CIT) for proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and taping intervention on pain and grip strength in patients with lateral epicondylitis (LE). Twenty subjects with LE were treated 5 times a week for 4 weeks. Patients were randomized to an experimental group (n=10) with taping after CIT and a control group (n=10) with taping after stretching. A visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to measure changes in pain. A hand dynamometer was used to measure grip strength. A paired t -test was performed to compare differences after the intervention. We used an independent t -test to compare the differences between experimental and control groups. All statistical significance levels were set at α=0.05. Within-group changes in VAS and grip strength were significantly different in both the experimental and control groups ( P <0.05). Between-groups after intervention, VAS and grip strength showed more improvement in the experimental group than in the control group ( P <0.05). This study showed that by applying CIT and taping to patients with LE, significant improvement in pain and grip strength could be obtained. Since the intervention had positive effects on LE by reducing pain and increasing grip strength, additional studies on efficient intervention will be conducted to develop exercise programs.

“…According to ' Achilles and Patellar Tendinopathies 12 Eccentric exercises are the gold standard to recupurate from tendon overuse injuries and in prevention of further re-injuries 42 . They also have an upper hand (when contrasted with concentric exercises) in cases where patients/athletes are planning to resume their normal functioning/ athletic activities 43 .…”

This literature review article has drawn attention to the current available physical therapies which can be applied in managing Tennis Elbow or lateral epicondylitis (LET) whose prevalence is about 3% in general population and about 20% in elderly population. This condition is characterised by lesions in Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis muscle leading to painful and debilitating musculoskeletal condition and affecting the overall quality of life of a patient. The review has also discussed the updated pathophysiological findings in this condition. The study has discussed that tennis elbow is degenerative disorder and initially caused by inflammation. The typical pathology found is presence of disorderly arrangement of immature collagen fibers consisting of fibroblastic and vascular components. Finally, the review has discussed several methods of physical therapies to manage tennis elbow. This includes counterforce bracing, Soft tissue techniques, various modalities , various exercises including Wrist extensor eccentric exercise, stabilization exercise, Stretching exercises, Eccentric strengthening exercise and. Overall, the review brings updated guidelines of the exercises and physical rehabilitation therapy points for managing LET or Tennis Elbow.

“…4 Although somewhat ambiguous, rehabilitation interventions are typically favored over medications, cortisone injections or surgery as the first method of treatment. 6,7 When critically assessing the literature, best rehabilitation practice supports various forms of the therapeutic exercise and manual therapy for the immediate and short-term improvement in pain and function. 8 Still, there is not a precise description of what constitutes an evidence-based multimodal treatment program for LET 9 especially when it comes to preventing recurrence of the condition.…”

Scapular muscle weakness in patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy is an identified impairment and is part of a multimodal rehabilitation approach. The published literature provides little information regarding specific rehabilitation guidelines that address both the proximal scapular muscle weakness and local elbow/ wrist dysfunctions common in patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy. The purpose of this clinical commentary is to describe a comprehensive rehabilitation strategy for individuals with lateral elbow tendinopathy. This program emphasizes a phased therapeutic strategy that addresses proximal and local dysfunction along the kinetic chain. This clinical protocol is currently being tested for efficacy as part of a randomized controlled trial. The information in this commentary is intended to provide clinicians with sufficient detail to comprehensively guide the rehabilitation of a patient with lateral elbow tendinopathy.
