Bauerfeind - EpiTrain - Elbow Support - Targeted Compression for Chronic Elbow Pain - Size 1 - Color Titanium

Works great and very comfortable even when the injury is still so painful

I hurt my left arm a month before a trip to Disney World. It was a reinjury of a tennis elbow style injury I got from mountain biking several years ago. I did it trying to cut a metal support bracket out of the ceiling in order to install a dining room light (at 63, next time I may just call an electrician). This cuff is not cheap, but it seemed like its designed very well. I wear similar compression cuffs on my arms to relief stress pain when I road or mountain bike. I did get a cort. shot from my ortho Dr., but these take weeks to kick in. Between this cuff and some Motrin 800s, I got through my vacation without any miserable discomfort. You actually feel a little relief as soon as you put it on. It stretched a little and seems to break in a bit as it molds to your shape. I can wear it most of the day before my arm needs a break and the soft material-inserts cushions your arm if you hit your injured elbow on anything that jumps out and surprises you. As usual, size matters. I got the size 4 and my forearm measures 30 cm an inch or two from my elbow. Very comfortable and effective after a few days of break in.

I felt that this was ok, maybe not specifically for my type of injury, but I feel compression and slight support when putting this on for tennis. I do wear this when actively playing sports, and the flexibility doesn't bother me.If you are a user, pay attention to the instruction manual as I was a little concerned of stretching the material out. Until I looked at the instructions and saw you had to roll it up prior to putting it on. Ohhhhh makes sense now.

Various parts of me are falling apart as I get older. Back, knees, and my right elbow. I have a handful of Bauerfeind products and they are all wonderful. this elbow brace is totally amazing. Unlike other brands, it covers a larger area above and below my elbow and has gel pads over the tendons to help prevent pulling and additional tearing.One star removed because for every one of their products I carefully measure as I am told to, then I need to order and return multiple sizes before I find the correct one.The sizing chart said I needed a 2, but it was so tight that my fingers turned blue. So I ordered a 4 -- which was perfect for a few days until it stretched out. So I ordered a 3, which I is just a bit too tight and I need to take it off every few hours to restore my circulation -- but then I put it back on because it really helps with the pain.

Except for the colour, this is identical to the less expensive sports elbow sleeve from the same brand. I already had the sports version in blue. I bought this thinking it would be a superior product. I returned when I realized it is redundant.

Way too small

I love it. it gave me the power I was lacking in my backhand. I had injured my elbow from holding the steering wheel of my bike too tight and it affected my backhand.

Amazing product. Gets rid of the pain right away. Size up if you’re on the edge of sizes.
