Tennis Elbow Braces --
with Mobility Restriction
Tennis elbow braces designed to limit the mobility of the arm do so in one of three ways.
The primary and probably best design keeps the elbow from hyperextending. Others limit mobility entirely, keeping the elbow at only a specific angle. A few keep the elbow perfectly straight, although this solution seems questionable.
