Summary

Repetitive and aggressive injuries to the elbow joint in sports often cause lateral elbow tendinitis (LET). In many clinical settings, therapists follow conventional methods according to their treatment protocols; however, complete rehabilitation is not always implemented. Without adequate care, elbow tendinitis can lead to chronic and recurring elbow injuries. Although many treatments are available, Blood flow restriction training (BFR) is a valuable option for exercise in cases where high-intensity training is too painful or contraindicated. In musculoskeletal disorders, it has been shown to induce hypoalgesia, and positive effects, such as improved muscle strength, growth, and tendon adaptations, have been demonstrated in healthy individuals.
