Elbow Pain Shouldn't Keep You from Living Your Best Life

Limited Daily Function
Interrupted Activities You Love
Simple tasks like lifting groceries, typing at work, or opening doors have become painful reminders that something isn't right.
Your golf swing, tennis game, or gym routine has been sidelined by persistent elbow pain that won't go away on its own.

Elbow Pain Physical Therapy FAQs
Common questions about our Dunwoody elbow pain treatment
1. How is your cash-based physical therapy different from traditional insurance-based PT?
​
Our private-pay model means you get significantly longer one-on-one sessions (not the rushed 15-minute appointments common with insurance-based clinics). We're not restricted by insurance limitations, so we can create truly personalized treatment plans focused on finding and fixing the root cause of your elbow pain—not just meeting productivity quotas. You also don't need a referral to get started, and our flexible scheduling works around your life.
​
2. What elbow pain conditions do you treat at your Dunwoody location?
​
We specialize in treating tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis), golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis), elbow tendonitis, bursitis, nerve compression issues like cubital tunnel syndrome, post-surgical elbow recovery, throwing injuries, and chronic elbow pain from repetitive activities like typing or manual labor. Our comprehensive assessment identifies the underlying cause whether it's related to sports, work, or daily activities.
​
3. How long does elbow pain physical therapy take to show results?
​
Every person is different, but many of our patients notice improvement within the first few sessions. Because we treat the root cause rather than just symptoms, our goal is sustainable, long-term relief. Your recovery timeline depends on factors like how long you've had pain, the severity of your condition, and your consistency with home exercises. During your initial assessment, we'll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific situation.
​
4. Do I need a doctor's referral for elbow pain treatment?
​
No! One of the benefits of our cash-based model is that you can schedule directly with us without a physician referral. However, if we discover during our assessment that you'd benefit from additional medical imaging or specialist consultation, we'll coordinate with your healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive care.
​
5. What can I expect during my first elbow pain physical therapy visit?
​
Your first visit includes a detailed conversation about your pain history, goals, and lifestyle, followed by our comprehensive movement assessment. We analyze your elbow mechanics, check for biomechanical issues throughout your arm and shoulder, and identify movement patterns that may be contributing to your pain. You'll leave with a clear understanding of what's causing your elbow pain and a personalized treatment plan designed specifically for you.
​
6. What are your hours and how do I schedule an appointment?
​
We're open Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 5 PM, and closed on weekends. You can schedule by calling us at (404) 907-4196 or by requesting a free discovery call through our website. We offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your busy life and provide the focused attention you deserve.
