Golfer or tennis elbow AKA epicondylitis

My name is Jenn and I came to see Blaine in late October when the pain in my right elbow was so severe that I would cringe before I would shake someone's hand because I knew that it would be painful. My job as a right-handed high school PE instructor was also being challenged as I was unable to demonstrate even the most simple of badminton skills. My hobby is weight lifting and I am a competitive bodybuilder. My tennis elbow brought a halt to my upper body workouts as I could not grasp a dumbbell or barbell. I had tried ice and anti-inflammatories, chiropractic care and massage but none of these were giving me the pain relief I needed.

I was skeptical but intrigued by the idea of Laser Therapy. I was ready to try anything. I told myself in my head that I would give it at least 6 treatments. If there was no noticeable change then I would try something else. It took only 3 treatments before there was a noticeable change (less inflammation in the joint and no throbbing). By 6 treatments I actually felt as though some healing was happening (light grip activities became bearable). Now, after 10 treatments, my elbow is back to 90%. I don't cringe when someone goes to shake my hand and I am back to working out.

I would strongly recommend Laser Therapy for joint injuries. For those who are active and are told that an injury will take 3 - 6 months to heal is like a death sentence. Blaine and LaserHealth Solutions cut down my healing time drastically. Yes, it still takes time and PATIENCE is critical. But it works!!

Ken presented to our office with Golfer's Elbow (inside elbow pain). He found the pain so intense that it interfered with his golf game. This is what he experienced at our office.

When I first began Laser Therapy I was skeptical about its value. After the third or fourth treatment I began to notice and feel improvements. By the sixth or seventh treatments, most of my pain and discomfort was gone. Because I'm very active, I think the process took a little longer.

After almost a year of pain from Tennis Elbow and not wanting to take drugs or have surgery, I decided to try Laser Therapy. After my second treatment, the pain was almost gone and the third treatment removed all the pain.

I had been suffering with golfer's elbow for 2 years. My left elbow was sore all the time and it got extremely worse after a round of golf or an evening at the driving range. The elbow pain not only affected my golf game, but many everyday activities were limited.

I heard about Laser Therapy from Dr. Rob one day while getting a chiropractic adjustment. He told me that this was quite a common condition and that he had gotten good results treating it with Laser Therapy, so I gave it a try. In total I had 10 treatments. The improvement at first was slow but as the treatments accumulated the improvement became more evident.

Now I no longer have any pain in my elbow and I'm able to resume my play of the game I love.

Thanks to everyone at LaserHealth Solutions.

I like to lead a fairly active lifestyle, working out 3-4 times per week and golfing a couple of games per week. The more active I am the more prone I am to injury. True to form, my golfer's elbow started from golfing. I had this burning pain for about 7 months where I just wasn't having any fun out on the course. I also had a bad case of Achilles Tendonitis that flared up from a lot of hill walking for fitness training about 4 years earlier. This was a real problem because the pain varied from dull ache to sharp stabbing pain every time I stood up from a chair or when I was walking. I was advised by my personal trainer to give Laser Therapy a try (he had treatments for a back problem and it helped him fine). I had 9 treatments for my elbow. I didn't think that the elbow treatment was working right away, but about a week after I ended my elbow treatments, I noticed the pain was gone and I could golf without any dysfunction. With my Achilles Tendonitis, I experienced close to 100% recovery at the end of my 11th treatment. The results have been great! I am back to my active lifestyle without the pain. That was 11 months ago. I recently hurt my shoulder and neck, again from golfing. It had been giving me frequent headaches. Once again this problem is starting to clear up after 6 treatments.

I would like to thank the staff at LaserHealth Solutions for keeping me happily active.

My mother highly recommended Laser Therapy treatments to me after she fully recovered from her soft tissue pain brought on by a car collision. At the time I was feeling pain in my right arm which was increasingly interrupting my daily life including work and carrying items. I visited Dr. Rob Skleryk who immediately diagnosed the pain as '*tennis elbow*' and recommended 10 Laser Therapy treatments. The first treatment eliminated 80% of the pain and by the last visit I was 100% healed. My mother-in-law is now completing her series of laser treatments for severe shoulder pain. Thanks Dr. Skleryk, she now sleeps, and carries out her daily activities normally.

As an avid hockey player I had been suffering from aches and pains that I associated with getting older. In September I injured myself significantly enough that I had to seek chiropractic relief. After 6 weeks of chiropractic treatments and being very cautious in my movement, I tried to play hockey again. I ended up injuring myself even worse than before. I spent 9 hours in the emergency room, got x-rays of my lower back done and diagnosed as having injury to the soft tissue at the base of my spine. The doctor recommended that I take things easy for 6-8 weeks and it would get better. 4 months later I was still unable to play sports or even do menial tasks without being very sore for days afterwards. Talking with a coworker about my despondency over not getting better they mentioned LHS and how they helped her with her tennis elbow. I gave them a call and made an appointment. The results were amazing! Within 3 weeks I no longer had the stiffness of the previous 5 months, after 6 weeks I feel better than I have in over a year!! If you do not think you will ever get relief from your aches and pains, I strongly recommend LaserHealth Solutions!

My right elbow had been bothering me while playing tennis since September. I tried icing and stretching for about 6 months with no changes. I had been in for treatments before for tennis elbow and I knew that it worked so I decided to give it a try for my golfer's elbow. There were not really any changes at first but now after 7 treatments I am at least 90% improved. I know it works and will be back for more treatments if I need them.

I would like to say I have had 7 treatments and I feel 100%. I feel no pain of any sort and I will be back in the New Year for my Tennis Elbow. Thanks…

I had knee pain for 3 months before coming to LaserHealth Solutions. It started when I was exercising using my X-box Kinect game. It had a combination of jumping, running and boxing. Lots of activity on my left knee caused it to get sore to the point that I felt it was going to buckle. I had to stop doing the track and field exercises on the game.

My knee was very sore and kept me awake at night. I had to go up the stairs one foot at a time. My husband had been to LaserHealth Solutions before for his golfer's elbow and it was fixed so I decided to go especially since I was getting ready for golfing season.

When Blaine assessed me he noticed that my pelvis was out of alignment possibly from working on my feet all day for 16 years in my gift basket business. He also found that my gracilis muscle was strained and affecting my knee. I then started Laser Therapy at the clinic and doing the recommended stretches at home. After 6 treatments, I was about 50% better and was able to golf 7 games over a week and a half. I was able to swing the golf club with no problem but I was sore going up and down hills. My knee would throb but settle down after rest. On flat golf courses I had no trouble. Now that I am back from my golf vacation, I will continue treatments. I am able to cross my legs, lift my leg to put pants on and get in and out of my vehicle without pain. My pelvis has also remained straight after the onsen manual techniques and my stretching at home.

I am looking forward to continuing my rapid progress - and the opening of the Calgary golf season!!

I did treatments at LaserHealth Solutions for a shoulder and elbow problem in August 21. I had been in pain for about a year. It had gotten so bad that I wasn't able to golf and the pain was waking me up at night. I was getting very frustrated. I had an x-ray and an ultrasound. My doctor said I had tennis elbow and he suggested a cortisone shot, but I wanted to do a treatment that fixed the problem instead of just postponing the symptoms for a while. I also didn't like the sound of the side effects of cortisone. I asked my doctor about Laser Therapy and though he didn't know much about it, he said to give it a try.

I'm so glad I did. After just a few weeks and 12 treatments, my shoulder and elbow were great. I could work again without pain. I could sleep through the night. I was only wishing that I had started sooner, so I hadn't missed out on golf!

Just a few days ago, after mowing my thick wet lawn and shaking the grass out of the heavy bag, I felt a twinge in my elbow. I gave it only a couple of days before I called LaserHealth Solutions. This time I'm not going to wait for a year and let it ruin my fun. I'm getting it treated right away. Blaine says that when you get to a problem quickly, it usually just takes a few treatments to fix. This summer, my golf clubs are going to be well used!

At age 49, I experienced back trouble for the first time in my life, when my lower back seized up in September. I was diagnosed with two degenerative discs (that were bulging) in my lower back. I tried other therapies first that had helped my husband immensely when he got his herniated disc several years prior. I did gain the majority of my mobility back, however, my degenerating discs continued to worsen when one of the lower discs torn in November. My husband kept suggesting I try LaserHealth Solutions, as they recently helped him with plantar fasciitis and his shoulder impingement. I kept putting it off and was very leery. Finally, 4 months later, Blaine Skleryk was extremely thorough in accessing my condition and was able to make manual adjustments that provided some instantaneous relieve. In 6 visits, I was at the point where I was getting through the day with relief from the majority of my symptoms. I always have to be very mindful of proper posture and ensure I exercise proper mechanics with my back. However, I finally got to the point where my back was no longer a full day issue of discomfort. I believe I would have saved money in the long run if I had gone to LaserHealth Solutions sooner because the manual adjustments that were made specific to my condition made a real difference in my prolonged health! Here it is 9 months later and my back is still doing great. Now, I have returned to LaserHealth Solutions to treat my nagging case of Tennis elbow which mysteriously appeared when I turned 50.
