A dynamic elbow strap for tennis elbow and other overuse conditions
EpiPoint is an elbow strap for the targeted application of pressure/relief over muscles and tendons on the outside of the forearm.
Pressure may be controlled by an adjustable elastic band for a comfortable, precise fit.
A red warning section on the adjustable band indicates when the strap may be pulled too tightly, providing exact compression every time. An oblong, knobbed viscoelastic insert is contoured to provide a targeted intermittent compression to the lateral insertion point, thus relieving pain. The pivoting compression pad can be adjusted for the right or left arm, providing correct anatomical pressure and placement for each user.
EpiPoint provides a high degree of stability while allowing the strap to respond dynamically to muscle movement. A flexible semi-rigid bar incorporated within EpiPoint® helps the product retain its shape. EpiPoint® is completely washable and is constructed of lightweight pile that is lined with terrycloth to provide comfort and absorb perspiration. EpiPoint® is available in one size and one version for the right and left arm.
Can be used to treat:
Lateral Epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
Elbow pain due to overuse
EpiPoint is available in one size and will fit a forearm circumference between 8 3/4 - 13 inches. The circumference of the elbow should be taken around the widest point below the elbow joint, with the elbow bent. EpiPoint is universal, fitting both the right and left arm. This is accomplished by rotating the anatomically contoured viscoelastic insert.

Q. What is the purpose of the red area?
A. EpiPoint is an elastic band that provides targeted compression to the forearm. Many people tend to pull elbow straps too tightly which constricts circulation. A red warning section has been incorporated on the EpiPoint band to indicate when the band has been pulled too much and the compression is too tight.
