Arm and elbow supports and braces perform two important functions:
Therefore, the type and severity of your arm or elbow injury, or the potential damage that may be caused by any activity, are critical to your choice of the correct arm and elbow support.
Our Buyer's Guide aims to help you to choose the best arm and elbow support.
Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow are overuse conditions that cause pain to radiate from the elbow down the forearm. Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow don't just affect tennis and golf players. Work-related activities that involve gripping, such as using a hammer or screwdriver, often cause tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. Typing can also cause repetitive overuse of the tendons of the wrist that originate at the elbow. If you wear a compression strap or brace, tightened against the painful tendon to limit its girth, it will reduce the force transmitted through the tendon and relieve the painful symptoms of tennis elbow and golfer's elbow considerably.
Neoprene elbow supports are more appropriate where there is arthritis and joint pain in the elbow joint, or following an elbow fracture or elbow surgery. The warmth and compression provided by a neoprene elbow support is extremely therapeutic and can help to relieve pain and swelling around the elbow. The PhysioRoom Tennis Elbow Support is an easy to wear strap which applies pressure and support to the forearm and elbow while giving the wearer the freedom to carry on playing sports or carrying out work and every day activities
Elbow Supports & Braces Product Range
Overuse conditions, such as tennis elbow and golfer's elbow, cause pain in the tendons of the forearm and the elbow. It's not just tennis and golf players who are affected by tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. Work activities like typing or gripping a tool, such as a hammer or screwdriver, often cause tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. During sports' or work activities, Elbow Compression Straps and Braces act directly on the site where forearm tendons originate that are the source of tennis elbow and golfer's elbow pain. By applying compression directly to the painful tendon to limit its girth, you reduce the force transmitted through the tendon and greatly relieve the symptoms of tennis elbow and golfer's elbow.
Elbow Compression Straps Product Range
The warmth and compression provided by a Neoprene elbow support is extremely therapeutic and can help to relieve the pain and swelling that results from elbow surgery or arthritis of the elbow joint. Following an elbow injury, or elbow surgery, wearing an elbow support will protect the elbow joint from further damage. An elbow support, especially one like the Mueller Pro Level Elbow Pad, which features extra padding, will protect the elbow joint from injury in sports where a fall is likely to bring your elbow into contact with a hard surface.
Elbow Protection Product Range
Serious elbow injuries: elbow fractures, elbow dislocations, as well as elbow surgery, require that the elbow is immobilised in a plaster cast, elbow brace or sling for a period of time. The Donjoy ROM Elbow Deluxe Brace is the modern alternative to immobilising the elbow joint in a plaster cast. Because it can be removed temporarily, this Elbow Brace is more hygienic than a plaster cast and features an adjustable hinge which allows the wearer to gradually increase the range of motion in the elbow joint as the tissue heals. Movement of the forearm is prevented by a hand brace. The top-of-the-range Donjoy Ultra Sling II and ProCare Elbow Sling also give a level of support and comfort that is superior to that provided by a standard triangular bandage.
To immobilise the elbow joint in the most comfortable position for healing, both slings have wide, adjustable shoulder and waist straps. In addition, the Donjoy Ultra Elbow Sling boasts a foam positioning pad and an exercise ball. The elbow sling's foam positioning pad cushions the elbow joint extremely comfortably at waist level. As the pain in your elbow lessens, you squeeze the ball to reduce stiffness in the hand and forearm, to stimulate circulation and accelerate healing of the elbow joint.
Elbow Slings and Immobilisers Product Range
Golfer's elbow and tennis elbow are chronic conditions characterised by pain in the tendons of the forearm and the elbow. Playing tennis and golf is not the only cause of tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. Working with tools that you grip firmly, such as a hammer, drill or excessive typing, can also bring on tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. Whether at work or play, wearing an Elbow Compression Strap or Elbow Brace applies compression directly to the painful tendons that are the source of tennis elbow and golfer's elbow, limiting their girth. The compression reduces the force transmitted through the tendon and effectively relieves the symptoms of tennis elbow and golfer's elbow.
Forearm Supports and Braces Product Range
People who have experienced elbow fractures or elbow dislocations, or had elbow surgery, need to protect and support their elbow joint when they return to sport. Wearing a Neoprene elbow support will provide therapeutic warmth and compression, reducing soreness and stiffness in the elbow joint, as well as protecting the elbow from damage in contact with an opponent or in a fall. The Mueller Pro Level Elbow Pad, which features a tough Kevlar layer and padding, gives the elbow joint extra protection from injury in sports where a fall will bring your elbow into contact with a hard surface. If you have a history of painful conditions, such as tennis elbow or golfer's elbow, wearing an elbow brace or elbow strap will prevent or relieve the discomfort in your elbow and forearm sufficiently to allow you to play your chosen sport.

Unless you are in terrible pain it is usually not necessary to sleep in an elbow support. It is a good time to air the skin and prevent bacteria under the support from building up. Sometimes, a pillow positioned underneath the arm and wrist can provide sufficient support during the night and prevent the arm "jolting" if you turn over inadvertently in your sleep.
An elbow brace helps to support the joint and the muscles or tendons that attach to the joint. Often tendons in the forearm that attach to the bony prominences of the elbow become overworked with excessive wrist and hand movements. Therefore by providing support, less pain is felt and the tendons can begin to heal.
Compression sleeves help to improve circulation throughout the muscles of the arm. Therefore, compression sleeves may help reduce the inflammation, pain and swelling that can occur with tendonitis. Compression arm sleeves can also help aid recovery, especially after sports or activities that use the arms repetitively. In addition to this, compression sleeves can also provide support for an effective injury prevention strategy.

Compression sleeves such as; Compex Anaform arm sleeves can help to provide support and warmth to the elbow area, as well as improve the circulation and help remove inflammation. This can be beneficial for Golfer's elbow which often involves overuse of the tendons along the forearm. Wearing compression sleeves during aggravating activities can help to relieve symptoms or prevent their onset.
In the short-term, applying Ice, compression or wearing an elbow support can all help to alleviate the pain associated with Golfers elbow. In the long term, strengthening the muscles and tendons around the shoulder and forearm can help to prevent reoccurrence of the injury. Core stability training can also help ensure the movements that can cause Golfer's elbow and overload stress on the forearm, are stable and as efficient as possible. Seek advice from a Chartered Physiotherapist who can identify biomechanical or postural habits that may be leading to the condition.
Braces such as the
Thuasne Epi Elbow Support or the Aircast Pneumatic arm band can help to minimise movements that can aggravate Golfer's elbow and help reduce pain associated with the condition. By wearing an elbow support, the strain on the tendons can be minimised to allow healing and the inflammation begin to settle. Applying ice or using compression can also be of great benefit to help reduce inflammation and swelling that may be present, to further relieve symptoms of Golfer's elbow.
Golfer's elbow is often caused by overloading the tendons that run from the elbow to the wrist and act to flex, rotate and grip with the hand and wrist. These tendons are opposed by the wrist extensors, therefore rectifying this imbalance can be the long term solution to relief from Golfers elbow. Often performing stretching exercises by bending the wrist back into an extended position, can help alleviate some tension. However, it is always a good idea to seek advice from a Chartered Physiotherapist to identify the individual contributing factors and set a specific strengthening program.
Modifying the technique used for lifting, gripping or rotational activities can also help combat symptoms of Golfer's elbow and wearing a specific
brace can help reduce pain in the short term.
Resistance bands and specific equipment such as
Physioroom hand grip exercisers can further help to strengthen the muscles of the wrist and forearm to rehabilitate elbow injuries.
