Elbow Pain

Elbow pain can show up as sharp irritation, deep aching, or that stubborn “won’t-go-away” soreness—especially with gripping, lifting, typing, or pushing movements. Most patients come to us after trying rest, bracing, massage, or stretching… but nothing creates real, lasting change.

These symptoms are often tied to conditions like tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, adhesions in the forearm flexors or extensors, nerve entrapments in the elbow or wrist, or repetitive strain injuries from daily use.

You might notice:

• Pain gripping a coffee mug, dumbbell, or steering wheel

• A dull ache that flares after typing, lifting, or gripping

• Discomfort that starts in the forearm and travels toward the wrist

• Pain during curls, pushups, rows, or pressing movements

• Soreness that lingers long after the activity ends

These problems are frequently driven by adhesions—small areas where soft tissue sticks together and limits how muscles and nerves move. Adhesions won’t show up on imaging, but they can block healing and keep irritation coming back.

At Resolve STS in Charlotte, we use precise Adhesion Release Methods to identify restricted soft tissue, release it by hand, and retest strength and motion in real time—so you feel measurable change right away.
