TheraBand - 13090 FlexBar, Tennis Elbow Therapy Bar, Relieve Tendonitis Pain & Improve Grip Strength, Resistance Bar for Golfers Elbow & Tendinitis, Green, Medium, Intermediate

Great, quality device for tennis elbow. The material quality is more firm and retains it’s regidity better than others that I have seen and used. I have had tennis elbow for years and this device has helped me with pain relief and improved strength in my hands and forearms. This is my second Theraband Flexbar and has helped me more than any other devices I have previously used.

This is a great Theraband and helped with my tennis elbow! The grip and resistance is perfect. Easy to use and light weight!

Bought this to rehab tennis elbow and strengthen forearm muscles at home. What I like • Really targets pain from tennis elbow and repetitive strain • Comes in different resistance levels for gradual progress • Compact and easy to use during breaks or workouts What could be better • Takes a few sessions to learn proper form • Rubber material has a strong smell when new Bottom line: Excellent rehab tool for elbow pain and grip strength. Perfect for athletes or office workers with arm strain, but look at Gripmaster Hand Exerciser if you want finger-specific training.

I have golfers elbow and it was getting pretty bad. I was afraid I needed to get some steroids or something serious. I got this thing at the advice of a coach. I started using it and after a couple of weeks it made a huge improvement. I have not gone back to doing things that enflame the inner elbow like doing pull ups but normal use and even things like medium heavy dumbbell curls don't bother me at all any more. Worth a try and cheaper than a Dr visit!

Take it from someone who has spent hundreds of dollars on chiropractic therapy over a couple years and had continual relapses until he began using this device: it works!! No, it hasn't cured my tennis elbow. I still have occasional flareups when I perform activities such as kayaking and motorcycle riding which stress this tendon, but not every time, and nowhere near as bad as before I began using the Thera-band flexbar. I use the green bar several times weekly. I have not found that I feel like I need to use a greater resistance bar. I am 200 lbs, athletic, lift weights and use my arms all day long to push equipment toward and away from my patients as well as rotating hard-to-turn knobs on some of the machines. If you allow your tennis elbow to reach the point where it is painful just to extend your arm as I did, you will likely need chiropractic attention first to loosen up the scar tissue that forms in the tendon over repeated, chronic flareups (my chiropractor used the Graston technique, which involves scraping a metal bar repeatedly over the site of the inflammation to break down the fibrosis that occurs between individual fibers of the tendon--resulted in a 100% cure...for awhile). Sadly, my chiropractor did not recommend this bar but I'm glad I found out about it because it has kept my lateral epicondylitis under control over about 6 months now. I'll keep using it to keep me from returning to where I was.

The item is very good for my tennis elbow. It is just the right tension and size. It is very flexible and building my arm strength

First my history: I started playing tennis in May 11. I am right handed and was playing tennis 4-5 times a week. My right elbow pain started mid Sep 2011. I stopped playing tennis and rested elbow from 21 Sep to 1 Oct 2011 (11 days). I had pain using my elbow arm lifting my handbag, groceries, keyboard typing, mouse use, and reaching alarm clock in morning to shut off. I purchased a future elbow brace with two pressure gel points on 19 Sep. Wore it every day, first few days at sleep too, and my pain lessened, just from the brace. Began to play tennis again on 2 Oct 11 and pain came right back. On 3 Oct 11, I received the green theraband flex bar from amazon.com. That evening did about 30 of the exercises after watching it over and over on the UTube demo. Felt popping and pulling during the twists. It was a bit painful, but bearable. My arm felt very weak after exercising it on and off that evening. I did ice it the end of that first night. Woke up and pain was different, still there, but not as intense. Even my fingers felt better, normally they are achy too. Blow drying my hair that next morning, not as painful, and noticeably different. From that date forward, I continue to play tennis 2 to 3 times a week and do three or four repetitions of 15 twists each day, normally, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and before bed time. I also continue icing, massage, ibuprofen, aspercreme, and wearing Band-It Elbow brace during play. I can't claim this is a "miracle" cure, but it has definitely helped my tennis elbow. I have heard of people quitting playing tennis for months or even years due to the elbow pain, but I continue to play and the pain has really subsided. I recommend it , without hesitation. On an additional side note: I did buy a new racquet this past weekend (Nov 11), it is a Wilson Khamsin Five BLX demo. I read all over the internet on picking a racquet that was easy on the elbow and arm. This gets a lot of good reviews for this, and I absolutely agree. The racquet I was using (Wilson Federer Signature 110 Tennis Racquet), definitely contributed to the pain. I have used my new racquet three days in a row and feel a difference in my strokes and the pain vibrating up the racket to my arm when I hit the ball. The pain over the last three days has subsided immensity too. Racquet makes a difference, I believe that now!

I used this flexbar at P.T. and bought one for the house. Great for mobility and strengthening my shoulder.

Nice product and relieved of my elbow pain

I'm a guitar player who suffered from chronic golfer's elbow from 2009 until 2016. Symptoms got bad to a point where I had to drop out of university in guitar and stop playing altogether for a long time. I tried icing, stretching, light dumbbell exercises and physiotherapy which seemed to improve the situation temporarily but not completely. For a while I saw no way out of it, I felt depressed and I thought I'd had to live with this condition for the rest of my life. Then couple years ago, for fun, I started boxing. I enjoyed the sport and it generally added strength in my upper body, including the arms, helping greatly with my golfer's elbow. Afterwards a good physiotherapist and the Theraband came along and I can say the symptoms are 90% gone, i'm back into music full time and I'm playing better than ever. For the remaining 10%? Well sometimes I feel a pinch, but the pain is minimal and lasts seconds instead of days. Chronic tendon problems are an annoying and debilitating burden. There is no miracle cure! Give it time, educate yourself on the subject of tendinopathy, reduce stress, mind and body are more connected than we think, get active and get the Theraband. It has been specifically designed to cure our type of issue. Start with the lighter one, 'red', then progress to 'green'. Follow a plan, the goal is to do as many repetitions as you can with little or no pain, stick to it and be dedicated. Slowly you will get better, it took me months to improve and reduce symptoms but it did resolve.

Great product

I've been using this for two weeks and my elbow is making surprising progress. I get tennis elbow from time to time, and it's usually a several month healing time - so a couple of weeks progress is really nice. I'm an average sized man, but I think I might have done better to get the light version (red). Regardless, it's working well enough with this medium strength (green) version and I'll be back to 100% in no time.
