Mills' manoeuvre
A manipulative procedure used to treat tennis elbow. The examiner fully pronates the affected forearm, flexes the wrist, and then forcibly extends the elbow. The manoeuvre should be performed only by a trained person, since if it is carried out too vigorously, it can lead to traumatic synovitis of the elbow joint.
