Q

What are considerations when beginning exercises for epicondylitis management

A

Perform all exercises w/n pain free motion, progress from pain-free ISOM - concentric and eccentric muscle contractions, light resistance when having these pts perform these exercises for first time and perform in slow controlled eccentric contraction
