Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation or TENS is a therapy designed to reduce the pain experienced from tennis elbow, the procedure involves applying a small electrical current to the affected area, TENS supposedly works by stimulating the nerve endings, thus reducing the pain experienced due to tennis elbow. Another theory suggests that electrical stimulation produces endorphins that help reduce the pain. Again there is not scientific data to support either claim, and people might experience pain loss due to placebo more than anything else.

Tennis elbow as such, does not always require direct surgical or drug intervention, not all cases of tennis elbow, warrant extensive physiotherapy, surgery or pain killers. If detected early, physiotherapy can be treated at home under supervision of a orthopedic surgeon or a physiotherapist.

The term Tennis elbow is medically known as lateral epicondylitis. It is an inflammation of the tendons that attach the forearm to the arm bone, the usual stress point is around the elbow, and hence the term tennis elbow. What exactly causes tennis elbow, is still completely not understood, some people believe that the reason is the frequent wear and tear of the elbow joints, others believe that the muscles that are responsible for the cocking the wrist back are to blame (this group of muscles is also called the extensor carpi radialis brevis).However there is a very good understanding of the way tennis elbow can be controlled, and also what steps can be taken to reduce the pain experienced by people who are suffering from tennis elbow pain.
