Are you dealing with nagging elbow, wrist, or hand pain?
You’re not alone. Repetitive stress injuries of the upper extremity account for nearly 30% of all workplace injuries in the U.S., and elbow tendinopathy alone affects up to 3% of the adult population annually. Whether your pain stems from lifting, computer use, gripping, or overuse in the gym—these problems can make it hard to train, type, or sleep.
At Voltex Physical Therapy in Austin, TX, we focus on identifying the underlying cause of your pain—not just the site. Our one-on-one sessions combine hands-on manual therapy, dry needling, mobility drills, and progressive loading to help you regain pain-free strength and function.
Don’t let your elbow, wrist or hand pain limit your life. Schedule your personalized session with our Doctors of Physical Therapy today and take the first step toward lasting relief.
Injuries We Treat Most: Elbow, Wrist & Hand
We commonly treat athletes, lifters, desk workers, and weekend warriors with a variety of upper extremity injuries, from overuse to trauma.
Lateral Epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow)
Irritation of the common extensor tendon on the outer elbow, often from gripping, typing, or lifting. Causes pain with wrist extension, gripping, and resisted movement.
Medial Epicondylitis (Golfer’s Elbow)
Pain on the inside of the elbow from overuse of the flexor muscles—common in golfers, lifters, and manual workers.
Wrist Tendinopathy
Inflammation or degeneration of wrist tendons from repetitive strain, lifting, or poor ergonomics. Pain worsens with typing, push-ups, or gripping.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Compression of the median nerve in the wrist causing numbness, tingling, or weakness in the hand and fingers—often worse at night or with prolonged wrist use.
Ulnar Nerve Entrapment
A “funny bone” issue causing numbness or weakness in the ring and pinky fingers—commonly from cycling, pressing, or resting elbows on hard surfaces.
De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis
Irritation of tendons on the thumb side of the wrist—frequent in new parents, lifters, and anyone doing repetitive thumb/wrist movements.
TFCC Injury (Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex)
A cartilage tear in the wrist, often due to load-bearing or twisting, causing deep wrist pain with pressing or weight-bearing.
Trigger Finger or Thumb
A catching or locking sensation in the fingers or thumb due to thickening of the flexor tendon sheath, often treated conservatively with manual therapy and exercise.
Post-Fracture or Post-Surgical Stiffness
Reduced mobility or pain after injury or surgery—requiring joint mobilization, strength retraining, and neuromuscular re-education.
Symptoms We Commonly See:
- Pain with gripping, lifting, pushing, or typing
- Numbness or tingling in fingers or forearm
- Wrist pain during push-ups, planks, or weightlifting
- Weak grip strength or dropping objects
- Stiffness or locking in fingers
- Burning or shooting pain in the hand or forearm
- Difficulty sleeping due to hand/wrist discomfort
- Swelling or clicking with movement
