A friend of mine developed a tennis elbow and had surgery 15 years ago. Now the problem has developed again. Which yoga practice can I recommend her?
Is there any connection between tennis elbow and kyphosis?
Namaste

Khyphosis or hunch back may limit the range of motion of the shoulder which in turn could cause limitations in tennis motions. But i doubt there is a correlation between the two in this case. Tennis elbow is more likely associated with a carrying angle (when the arms are presented straight palm facing forward the elbow angles off from the upper arm to lower arm). It is usually associated with weakness and/or inflammation of the pronator and supinator muscles of the forearm and elbow ligaments. namaste mukunda
