How can I get Tennis elbow when I’ve never played tennis?

As I shouted at my TV yesterday willing Andy Murray on at Wimbledon, it reminded me about the conundrum of Tennis Elbow.

XXX of ZZZZ plays a forehand in his/her first round match against XXXX of ZZZZZ during day two of the 2015 Australian Open at Melbourne Park on January 20, 2015 in Melbourne, Australia.

 

Tennis Elbow is officially caused by inflammation of the tendons on the outside of your elbow and is also called lateral epicondylitis.  It is classed as an overuse injury and occurs when you do repeated movements and it gets worse if you keep doing the activity that causes the pain.  It usually happens on your dominant side.  So it is easy to see why it happens in tennis players- as they grip the racquet and then use their arm the tendon that extends the wrist and elbow (called the common extensor tendon) gets inflamed causing pain, swelling and can even make a crunching noise called crepitus.

Summer is coming! Do you suffer from excessive sweating particularly in the summer months?

 

220 million people suffer from excessive, uncontrollable sweating. That’s right. More than 3% of the global population are like you, looking for help.

It’s an uncontrollable, annoying, embarrassing, and isolating problem (to say the least). From the discomfort of sweat running down your sides, to the embarrassment of obvious sweat stains, to the fear of being “discovered,” uncontrollable underarm sweating can feel like it’s ruining your life.

Antiperspirants just don’t work! But Dr Sally can help!

Reflexology is one of the safest and most supportive therapies for pregnant women. As an experienced reflexologist, with advanced techniques in maternity reflexology treatments and a passion for this specialised field, I have the honour of treating many women who suffer from some of the adverse effects of the physiological changes that pregnancy can bring.

Reflexology can be extremely beneficial for expectant, labouring or newly delivered women and for their babies; both to treat a variety of specific conditions and to aid relaxation and induce sleep. Regular sessions throughout pregnancy (after week 14) can help to alleviate symptoms by encouraging the body’s self-healing and self-regulating systems.
