hey guys today we’re going to talk about how to fix tennis elbow right so let’s just pretend that she has tennis elbow on the right side okay now here’s a secret never work never never never never never never work on the same side I know it’s weird like so many therapists they work on the same side and it takes months and months to get better work on the opposite side now before I tell you how this works I’m just going to show you what to do okay what you’re going to do is you find it where it’s hurting on this side and you press on the mirror image so let’s say the mirror image is right on the top part we’re just going to massage this now you could do it on yourself okay but you could also press have someone do it on you and just show them how to do it and watch this video so you rub that right there okay so that should get rid of the pain right there but the key is getting the mirror image exact spot when you rub this now the way you know you have the exact spot it’ll be really really really tender okay you’ll find one spot that person will go ow that hurts well then we just spend time and work that out but we’re not done yet we have to work on the muscle connected to the elbow going up don’t worry about going down just going up so we’re going to work on the elbow and then we’re going to work on the muscles on the opposite side and you’re going to work on the bicep and the tricep okay on the back part and you’re going to massage these right here okay now why does this work because the hip bones connected to the thigh bone this arm is connected to this arm through a circuit through the spinal column we have a stuck flow by the brain the brain is sending pain signals over here it’s stuck okay to free it up we can work on this side and that forces the brain to focus on the other side and lets this go that’s how it works it’s very very simple but it’s one of the most magical things for tennis elbow the key is like it might go away like 80% but then you ask okay where is it now well and it moved higher or a little bit more over here and you keep tracking it down and doing the opposite on this side until all this is completely gone all right so do that for probably every night for like week or two and you should be fine but if you still have the problem there is a chance that it could be a tear okay this will not fix the tear you’re going to have to go and get it scoped and get it sewn back whatever because this will only work if there’s pain that’s stuck there okay so that’s how you fix tennis elbow
