Epi-lock Tennis Elbow Straps

Lateral epicondylitis — the repetitive-strain pain most people know as tennis elbow — doesn't only come from a racquet. It builds from gripping, lifting, typing, and any motion that keeps the forearm's extensor tendons under load. The Epi-lock elbow strap is built to interrupt that cycle, applying focused compression just below the elbow to redistribute tension away from the inflamed tendon attachment and let the area calm down while you stay active.

Fit is what makes a compression strap work, so Epi-lock is sized to the forearm rather than sold one-size-fits-all. Measure the circumference of your forearm a few inches below the elbow: the Small/Medium strap fits forearms roughly 7 to 12 inches around, while the Large/X-Large covers heavier or more muscular arms. Both come in a discreet beige that sits unobtrusively under a sleeve, and both are adjustable so you can dial in firm-but-not-restrictive pressure over the muscle belly, not the joint itself.

Buyers usually ask which arm and how tight — wear it on the affected forearm, snug enough to feel steady support without pins-and-needles or throbbing, and loosen it during rest periods. It's a conservative-care tool that pairs well with stretching and activity modification, useful for both golfer's and tennis elbow presentations, and equally at home in a clinic supply room or a home recovery kit.

If you're stocking a range of orthopedic and specialty supports, you may also want to look at related lines such as Cinch-Lock and Soft-Lock. For skin prep and cleansing before taping or bracing, see Epi-Clenz.
