Yes - it's from 2009 - wonder if there's been any follow up work since...

without wanting to sound like a douche, I thought the Tyler Twist stuff was common knowledge for TE? (It worked wonders for mine and I'm now 'cured')

Could be. I didn't look into it that much. It looked so much better than the treatment I'd been prescribed, or at least easier than the theraband stuff.

I did the tyler twist exercises in combination with somewhat savage 'massage' with an armaid and it cleared my tennis elbow right up. It did take a good year of super slow progress, but it almost seemed like once my body realized there was something wrong the healing process sped right up. Get a green or red therabar from ebay for £20-30 or whatever it is and basically just do as many twists a day as you can manage. The current consensus is that it should hurt I believe
