An Aircast tennis elbow brace is a special device that provides comfortable padding and has air cells that provide a cushion effect. Tennis elbow can affect medial or lateral parts of the elbow and this device provides excellent support to both whilst encouraging the healing process.
The Aircast is placed on the affected tendons in the arm and this compresses the tendons that are responsible for wrist movements. Aircast braces are available in varying sizes and comes with a strap lined with foam. The purpose of this is to offload the tension and weight from the tendons and allow them to relax and heal over time.
