Elbow braces – suitable products from Ergonomic Care
The elbow joint is one of the most heavily stressed joints in the body, as we use our arms daily. In addition to normal daily tasks, special stresses occur in sports, physical work, or heavy lifting. At the same time, prolonged activities such as writing or typing on the keyboard often lead to strains that can frequently result in chronic irritation or joint inflammation. The most well-known condition associated with this is called “tennis elbow.”
Braces for the elbow can help reduce the stress and alleviate existing pain and inflammatory reactions. The prerequisite for this is suitable and stable braces. Therefore, you will find a wide selection of high-quality elbow braces at our medical supply store in Munich. During a free, detailed consultation, we will find a well-fitting and comfortable brace together with you that also alleviates your complaints.
In addition to their stabilizing effect, modern braces also stimulate blood circulation in the tissue through a massage effect. This is particularly pleasant for complaints in the muscles or at the tendon attachment and can help prevent injuries and irritations. Wearing an elbow brace is thus worthwhile even before recurrent complaints occur. Our experienced team will also be happy to advise you on the preventive wearing of a brace.
Elbow braces – assistance and stability for the stressed joint
The elbow is a very complex joint, where complaints can occur both at the bone attachment (humerus, ulna, and radius) as well as in the muscles, joint capsules, ligaments, and tendons. It is a joint that is constantly stressed, being used in fine movements as well as in rough tasks (e.g., lifting heavy weights). Bending and stretching are possible, but also rotational movements or circular movements.
A brace can help the elbow in the following ways:
- Stabilization of the joint
- Better distribution of stress
- Support for healing through warmth
- Massage effect and compression through the fabric of the brace
- Alleviation of pain
- Protection from shocks or other mechanical injuries
Proper fit is also important for a brace. Only then can the massage effects be utilized while simultaneously avoiding misalignments or circulatory disturbances. Simple handling of the braces is also important. High-quality elbow braces therefore also offer aids for putting them on. Our experienced team at Ergonomic Care is ready to competently assist you in choosing the right elbow braces – just visit us at Sendlinger Tor.
A brace is not just a brace – what to look for when buying
Braces, like many other medical aids, are often underestimated. However, in recent years there have also been various developments regarding fit, durability, comfort, and fabric in the seemingly simple medical supply items. The goal of a good brace is not only pain relief and stabilization but also useful side effects such as improved blood circulation and a light massage function to prevent swelling. Pull-on aids or strap systems enhance handling, so that putting on a brace alone is not a problem. Our expert team will gladly show you how to put on a brace at the time of purchase. Additionally, our team always has some advice for gentle cleaning of your brace.
Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow – a brace for the most common complaints
The best-known complaints at the elbow include the so-called “tennis elbow” or golfer’s elbow. However, these complaints do not only occur in tennis players or golfers. Due to overuse, painful irritations occur at the tendon attachments. On the outside in the case of tennis elbow, and on the inside in the case of golfer’s elbow. This overuse can occur in sports, but also in other (monotonous) activities, for example, due to occupation.
In many cases, an elbow brace can help. It supports the affected muscles and tendons by relieving stress and providing warmth. A brace can also be worn prophylactically.
In case of persistent complaints, however, affected individuals should definitely consult a doctor. In many cases, the doctor will recommend wearing a brace, and if prescribed, the cost will be covered by health insurance. With the prescription, you can then come to us at Ergonomic Care and receive your brace the same day.
