A wonder device that put a stop to my elbow pain
I didn't really know what to expect from an elbow brace. I didn't have any diagnosis either - just pain - so I wasn't even sure if what I was feeling would be addressed by this device. When I received it and put it on, I have to say that I was still skeptical. The inside of the brace is very soft, and I felt like I couldn't get the thing tight enough to even notice it being there. Feeling stupid for having purchased, I made a motion to start to remove the brace, and that's when it hit me. The motion that I just did with my wrist (supinate - turn my hand palm-up) would normally send a mild shock of pain up my arm.<br /><br />That didn't happen this time. I checked it again. Same pain-free result.<br /><br />I don't know how this thing does what it does, but it absolutely *DOES* work. I suppose I could Google it for you, but at the moment it's magic.<br /><br />So, of course, I made it my goal to find the limits of the effectiveness of the pain-relief. Let's go lift weights! Well, it has its limits.<br /><br />Since I received two of them in the package, I had my wife try one also. She actually plays tennis, so she's more familiar with people wearing these contraptions. The only complaint she had was about the Velcro closures... The Velcro extends out from under the fabric of the brace. That's not a problem in and of itself, but she kept trying to remove the brace by pulling on the end of the fabric, which seems the obvious place to lift but winds up damaging the device by separating the fabric cover from the Velcro underneath. That's a minor thing when you're talking about pain relief, so I decided to keep the five-star rating because I did not experience this confusion.<br /><br />I received these elbow braces at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. I have tried to deliver facts to you that would assist you in your purchasing decision, and I hope you find this review helpful. If you have questions about the product or about my review of it, don't hesitate to add a comment and ask your question. I'm always happy to answer.
