Elbow Pain & Tennis Elbow Treatment for Athletes
Train and recover inside Wilmington’s only sports physical therapy facility designed like a professional training environment - combining rehab, performance training, and return-to-sport testing under one roof.
Elbow pain can make lifting, throwing, gripping, swinging, and training frustrating. Whether you’re dealing with tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, throwing pain, or persistent elbow symptoms that keep returning, the goal is more than pain relief - it’s getting back to sport and activity confidently.
At SciSport, we combine performance-based rehab, objective assessment, and return-to-sport principles to help athletes recover and stay healthy.
Why Elbow pain keeps coming back
Many elbow injuries persist because rehab stops after pain decreases.
Athletes often return before restoring:
Strength capacity
Tendon loading tolerance
Grip strength deficits
Throwing or lifting capacity
Sport-specific movement demands
Our focus is preparing you for performance - not just reducing pain.
