If you're dealing with pain on the inside of your elbow that flares up with gripping, lifting, or wrist flexion, you may be suffering from medial epicondylitis—more commonly known as Golfer’s Elbow. Despite the name, you don’t have to play golf to experience it. At Be Amazing Chiropractic in Mayfield West, we help patients across Newcastle recover from Golfer’s Elbow by addressing both the local inflammation and the neurological stress that often underlies it.
Medial epicondylitis is a condition where the tendons that attach to the inner part of your elbow become inflamed due to overuse or repetitive strain. This causes pain, stiffness, and weakness in the elbow, wrist, and forearm.
Common symptoms include:
Pain or burning on the inside of the elbow
Soreness when gripping or turning objects
Weakness in the forearm or hand
Stiffness or reduced range of motion
Symptoms aggravated by wrist flexion or lifting
This condition commonly affects:
Golfers
Tradespeople
Weightlifters
Office workers
Parents lifting children
Golfer’s Elbow typically develops due to repetitive stress on the forearm muscles that control wrist and finger movement. Risk factors include:
Repetitive gripping, lifting, or twisting
Poor ergonomic setup at work
Lack of mobility or strength in the shoulder and wrist
Neck or spinal misalignment affecting nerve supply
While the pain is felt in the elbow, the root cause is often broader—especially when nerve interference from the neck or postural stress is involved.

If so, you’re in the right place. We take a whole-body approach that not only calms the elbow but also addresses contributing issues in the neck, shoulder, and nervous system.
Chiropractic care focuses on restoring alignment, improving mobility, and reducing neurological stress throughout the body. For medial epicondylitis, chiropractic can:
Improve joint function in the neck, shoulder, and elbow
Decrease muscle tension in the forearm and wrist
Support better posture and reduce mechanical strain
Stimulate natural healing by improving nerve flow
At Be Amazing Chiropractic, we evaluate your spine, posture, and biomechanics to get a complete picture of why your elbow is inflamed and how to correct it.
Often overlooked in traditional care is the role of neurological weakness in repetitive strain injuries like Golfer’s Elbow. This is where Quantum Neurology offers a game-changing advantage.
We use:
✅Nerve-specific muscle testing
✅Light therapy for nerve stimulation
✅Reflex-based retraining of injured movement patterns
This helps:
✅Activate underperforming nerves in the arm and hand
✅Rebalance muscle firing patterns
✅Improve recovery time and long-term resilience
Many patients experience significant improvements in both pain and function when neurological correction is combined with structural care.
Because nerves in your elbow originate in the cervical spine, we often find that medial epicondylitis co-exists with or is worsened by:
✅Poor grip strength or wrist mobility
This is why we never just treat the elbow in isolation.
