Ayurvedic Treatment for Tennis Elbow

Do you feel a sharp pain on the outer side of your elbow when lifting, gripping, or even shaking hands?

Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a painful condition caused by inflammation of the tendons in the forearm due to overuse or repetitive strain. It’s not limited to athletes—anyone performing repeated wrist or arm movements can develop it.

What starts as mild discomfort can gradually weaken grip strength and interfere with everyday tasks. But why does the pain persist in some and resolve in others? Ayurveda offers a deeper perspective on this, focusing on the body’s internal balance and long-term healing.

Ayurvedic Perspective

According to Ayurveda, tennis elbow is understood as a manifestation of aggravated Vata dosha affecting the tendons and ligaments, termed Snayugata Vata. This imbalance causes dryness, weakness, and inflammation in the connective tissues, resulting in pain and functional impairment.

Causes include:

  • Dietary habits: Irregular meals, intake of dry, cold, heavy stale, or processed foods
  • Lifestyle factors: Excessive physical exertion or insufficient rest
  • Environmental causes: Vata-aggravating weather (cold, dry seasons), Seasonal transitions can trigger pain

Ayurvedic management focuses on restoring balance by pacifying aggravated doshas, particularly Vata dosha, and realigning the digestive system. This holistic approach includes:
