Forearm Counterforce Brace

for Tennis Elbow

A counterforce brace (tennis elbow strap) worn just below the elbow reduces pain by redistributing muscle forces away from the inflamed tendon origin during activity.

How it works

Compression of the proximal forearm musculature creates a new proximal origin point for the muscles, reducing the mechanical stress transmitted to the lateral epicondyle tendon attachment.

What to watch for

Provides symptom relief during aggravating activities but is not a treatment for the underlying tendinopathy. Should be combined with loading exercises. Wear only during provocative activity — not 24/7.
