The Tomight Elbow Braces work exceptionally well! The design is simple, yet they have used very good quality materials to construct the braces.
It's an added benefit that you get two (2) braces for the $11.99 (as of 10/25/17)! The interior of the brace which has the pressure pad is made of a polyester microfiber. I've used braces made of this material before. I would recommend cleaning with Woolite and rinsing well after washing them. If you hang them to dry, they will be dry in a few hours; I hang mine up overnight.
The Velcro-type closures are well-made and attach very well. There are two straps which have this hook & loop attachment which will aid in fitting on the irregular surface of a person's upper forearm. This brace would be appropriate for both Tennis Elbow (the dorsal/top of the elbow) or even Golfer's Elbow (the anterior/inside of the elbow). I have managed to suffer from both of these maladies!
The adjustment variation on these braces should make them usable for both men and women.
Very well made and highly functional! These work very very well!
I have been using this brace for 3 months because of excruciating forearm pain caused from repetitive use/work. The pain was horrible. I couldn't do simple tasks like take clothes out of the dryer, talk on phone, put a bra on, or squeeze shampoo and conditioner out of a bottle without wincing, severe pain. I use these braces along with a small compression brace on forearm for daily support.I do daily, gentle forearm stretches which I looked up on youtube, and I also self massage forearm tendons every other day. I have only taken otc pain meds 1x during this period , but have been diligent about everything else.
Today while getting ready, I realized I could do all the stuff again with very little pain. My fingers aren't numb, it's not in control of me anymore! When you realize that your mobility and strength are back, you could almost cry tears of gratitude.
These little braces made a big difference on my road to recovery. They are easy to put on. I am right handed and have to use my left to position brace. It's easy. I also really really like that it's padded a bit because I tend to be a bit clumsy and smack my elbow on a doorway or wall or counter from time to time and these have saved me that pain!
Weeder's elbow is a pain! Waking up in the middle of the night because your arm is tingling and part of your hand is numb is no fun! Since I'm not going to stop pulling weeds I need another solution and these braces are it. I've tried several brands and these by far have worked the best. I really like the fact that they are so adjustable too! I have small arms and a lot of the braces I tried were just too big, these can be adjusted in several ways for a perfect fit. I won't ever pull weeds without them!
This elbow brace pad is very comfortable and at times, I forgot I was wearing it. It's great when performing repetitive tasks and actions and there is a sufficient amount of support. For those with issues with forearms, tennis elbow and even the ulnar nerve, it’s my opinion that this elbow brace pad can really help a great deal.
This is personal preference but for me, it’s great that these elbow brace pads are not larger than they are. The size is perfect for me. They are compact and comfortable.
The elbow brace is made really well and compresses the upper forearm while pain issues seem to lessen. The padding is thick and did not irritate my skin at all. That’s a big advantage. The velcro is strong and many people who had accidents and broke elbows and arms in the past can benefit from this type of support. In this case, it feels comfortable and the brace/pad is not too tight at all.
Note that there are some similar items that have sharp edges or are designed where the velcro can irritate or cut into one’s skin. These elbow braces and pads are designed so they provide support and feel good while they are worn. Nothing cuts into my skin at all.
Some people will want to wear it while working out or playing tennis.
Here are some positives:
* well constructed
*for me, these are the perfect size
*firm with support but not too tight
*material did not irritate my skin
*I forgot I had it on while wearing it and that’s the biggest plus of all

Elbow Brace, Tomight Tennis Elbow Brace with Compression Pad for Both Men and Women
Cheap price, good quality elbow brace.
I was dealing with tennis elbow for about 5 months before it got so bad I couldn’t even pick up a pen to write, then I knew it was time to deal with it. I started watching videos on physical therapy for tennis elbow and did the massages and everything but because of work I cannot stop using my arm to let it heal so I ordered these braces for when I’m at work.
When I first put the brace on it felt AMAZING. The pain went away instantly. I think I wore it too often at first because it seemed to cause other issues and pains in my arm muscles so I now only wear it at work and it seems to help. I’m at 6 months of dealing with tennis elbow now though so I won’t say these braces are a miracle, but it’s keeping me from having to go to the doctor for now so I’m happy with them!

Description
What is Tennis Elbow?
Tennis elbow, or lateral epicondylitis, is a painful condition of the elbow caused by overuse. Tennis elbow specifically involves the area where the muscles and tendons of the forearm attach to the outside bony area of the elbow.
Who gets Tennis Elbow?
Tennis players, athletes and people who participate in any activities that require repetitive arm, elbow, wrist, and hand movement, especially while tightly gripping something. Examples include: Drivers, golfers, baseball players, bowlers, gardeners, landscapers, cleaners ( vacuuming, sweeping, and scrubbing), carpenters, mechanics, and assembly-line workers, etc.
Relief pain and prevent injury of Tennis Elbow and tendonitis
The braces work by compressing the upper forearm and absorbing the forces which are transmitted through the soft tissues and they change the angle at which the tendon works at the elbow changing the forces applied to the tendon attachment which allows the injured area time to recover.These straps are easy to fit because one size fits all,it also retains warmth which increased blood circulation to the injury and promotes healing..

This elbow brace isn't a miracle worker...it doesn't take away all the pain but it really does help. The brace is comfortable; it's not hot to wear. Don't be afraid to pull it tight - a single finger should be able to easily slide between your skin and the brace but just barely. It might take a little while to figure out where best to put it - I think it depends on where you're feeling the most pain. I would totally recommend these over those ridiculously priced ones.
I use this every day when I am doing light weights recovering from my golfers elbows. I can do side laterals and bicep curls with light weights without aggravating my elbows after 2 weeks. The pressure works well and the Velcro stays on tight and does not have to be readjusted during workouts.
I gave myself a repetitive stress injury ("tennis elbow") while splitting a couple cords of wood and tossing half of it backhand with my left arm (dumb). I did some research and eventually found this product and decided to give it a try. The package arrived, I put on one of the two braces included, and the pain and discomfort of my "tennis elbow" virtually disappeared immediately. The brace works by keeping a bit of pressure on the muscle that contracts in my arm, disturbing the inflamed tendon and causing the pain. The pressure keeps the muscle from contracting as much, and that is the key to reducing the pain and potential for further damage. I also happen to be a computer programmer, and I have had a long history of pain and discomfort in my right (mouse) hand, including surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. More recently, I started having pain in my right forearm at the same location as the 'tennis elbow' pain in my left arm. I placed one of these braces on the spot on my right arm, and the discomfort is greatly reduced. I'm wearing one of the braces on my right arm as I type this. I came back to order another pair of these braces, as I lost one somewhere and I'd like to keep them around. I hope this product helps someone else as much as it has helped me!
I purchased these because I suffer from tennis elbow from playing paddle ball. I find these to be very well cushioned and comfortable. The straps are easily adjustable and the Velcro is durable. I’ve been able to comfortably wear them under a shirt as well as over a fitted shirt. I am 5’10’ female weighing 138 so my arms are thin and these still fit well. They definitely have long enough Velcro to fit a larger person. I couldn’t think of one thing that could be improved on this product - that’s how good it is! I highly recommend these!
These are so much better than the Ace brace I was using. These are easy to adjust and the pad puts pressure and stability exactly where I need it. Not to mention that you get 2 for just slightly more than I paid for one Ace. There is no pain now when I lift my weights. I definitely recommend these braces.
