This counterforce brace is an elbow compression strap for tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) and golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis). It wraps around the forearm and applies pressure just below the site of elbow pain.
The strap compresses the forearm extensor muscles just below the epicondyle. This moves the point of tension away from the epicondyle. A thick, soft neoprene compression pad applies direct pressure.
It can be worn on either arm. Place the pad on the outside of the elbow for tennis elbow or on the inside for golfer's elbow. It can be worn by men, women and children.
