The CIRQUE Arm Band for Injury Recovery from ARYSE is worn on the upper forearm near the elbow and is commonly used in the prevention and treatment of lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) and medial epicondylitis (golfers elbow). Tennis elbow causes pain on the outside of the elbow and forearm, while golfers elbow causes pain on the inside of the elbow and forearm. These forms of tendonitis can also be caused or exacerbated by overtraining during weightlifting exercises. The pain can also radiate from the elbow down to the wrist. But this arm brace is not just for athletes. Plumbers, painters, carpenters, meat cutters, cooks, assembly line workers, and even musicians are regularly required in the performance of their jobs to repeatedly complete movements that stress their tendons.
The brace is worn near the area where the tendons of the forearm muscles attach to the elbow. The pain and weakness associated with these conditions can seriously impact the quality of life for a patient. Simple tasks like shaking hands, picking up or holding an object, and turning a doorknob are all activities that might not be possible for people dealing with these conditions. An arm strap provides tendon support and reduces vibrations to the tendons. This helps to prevent and calm the inflammation from tendonitis and reduce the accompanying pain and weakness. Arthritis sufferers can also benefit from using this arm strap, as it allows the muscles to relax and reduces stress on the tendons and joints.
