Abstract
The Medial epicondylitis is one of the most common and disabling injuries of pitchers, it has been shown that proper diagnosis and early treatment of this condition can prevent future defections of pitchers. A causal-experimental, descriptive, longitudinal study of a 32-year-old softball pitcher diagnosed with medial epicondylitis. In this study, the pitcher was reintegrated into the pitch without experiencing painful episodes during and at the end of the game, which is why the physiotherapeutic treatment was complemented with the neuromuscular bandage that supported the forced valgus movement during the pitching. Without showing painful episodes. There was a considerable increase in the range of mobility and the increase in speed in their throws. It could be concluded that the successful treatment can not only reinstate the pitchers to the field of play but also improve their speed and throwing technique by not perceiving painful sensations
