Physiotherapy is a pivotal approach in addressing tennis elbow. Therapists employ targeted exercises to strengthen forearm muscles and improve flexibility, alleviating strain on the tendons. They assess movement patterns to correct improper techniques contributing to the condition. Manual therapies like massage and mobilization promote circulation and tissue healing. Techniques such as ultrasound and laser therapy can reduce pain and inflammation. Ergonomic advice helps prevent future injuries. Customized physiotherapy plans address individual needs, gradually restoring function and minimizing discomfort. Regular sessions aid in a comprehensive recovery from tennis elbow, enabling individuals to regain strength and return to their activities with reduced risk of recurrence.

Dentures and Dry Mouth
Dry mouth is a condition that involves the salivary glands not producing enough saliva to adequately keep the mouth moistened. This lack of saliva can alter the fit and comfort of dentures, since saliva helps dentures retain their suction and stay in place and also has a lubricating effect that keeps dentures from rubbing on the gums and creating sores. Those who take certain medications, are older, use tobacco and alcohol, or snore while they sleep, are more susceptible to dry mouth. If you’re experiencing dry mouth symptoms as a denture-wearer, contact your denturist to discuss your options.
