Massage treatment needs adjusted and not too hard if the elbow is quite painful and acute. At home use of an exercise massage gun may provide relief.
Brace Strap Support - A Tennis Elbow brace works by offsetting the use of the common extensor tendons at the elbow joint to allow recovery time. Kinesiology tape may provide similar benefits as well in supporting the function of the muscles.
Ultrasound therapy – Might be helpful in the acute inflammatory stage if the tendon is slowly recovering and too tender to treat manually.

Heat or Ice – Using an ice-pack is great during flare ups or in the acute inflammatory stage placed directly at the elbow joint. Heat is beneficial in later stages when pain is mild or quite dull placed on the muscles or the forearm and not directly on the elbow.
