Although you may not participate in the same types of exercises with tennis elbow as you did before, it is important that you keep your body moving in order to treat the condition and relieve the pain. Tennis elbow exercises can be very beneficial and will help you to get back to your regular routine quickly.
Tennis Elbow Stretches
There are a variety of stretches and exercises for tennis elbow that will alleviate some of your pain. Some tennis elbow exercises and stretches include:

- Stretching Flexor Muscles – Stretch the entire arm straight out in front of the body, level with the shoulders, palm facing up this time. Keep the fingers together and try to point them down at the ground. With the opposite hand, push down against the palm and feel the stretch extending along the underside of the arm.
- Stretching Entire Arm – Behind your body, grip the StretchRite® with each hand. Pull it tight, keep your arms straight, and raise it up towards the ceiling.
