Epicondylitis elbow strap with pressure pad EPIFEEL
"Tennis elbow" occurs mainly in individuals who produce frequently repetitive stereotypical movements in the elbow (extension and supination of the forearm). Pianists and masons, painters and carpenters, blacksmiths and massage therapists, arm wrestlers and golfers, and of course, tennis players get sick with it.
The orthosis helps to relieve pain and reduce swelling in the joint area.

3 Tighten the Velcro® strap by pulling until the white line appears inside the ring (fig.D).
Tighten without causing discomfort or a tingling sensation.
