Tennis Elbow Braces --
with Small Pad
Tennis elbow braces with a small pad apply concentrated pressure directly to the tendon. Braces without a pad for concentrated pressure distribute the compression around the arm.
These braces are an excellent choice.
For tennis elbow, position the pad 1.5–2 inches below the inside bend of the elbow with the pad on the outer edge of the forearm.
