Copper United Compression Elbow Sleeve #1 Copper Infused Fit Support - GUARANTEED Recovery Brace - Best for Workouts, Golfers, Tennis Elbow, Arthritis, Tendonitis & More - Wear Anywhere - Single

I was a little skeptical, especially when i received it. It was very light. Don't really know what i was expecting....i really had NO expectations, but was trying the copper thing out of sheer desperation due to the pain that was progressively getting worse. So i put it on and waited for immediate results, and left it on because it was comfortable. It's very sheer and fit great. i left if on most of the day and low and behold at the end of the first day i DID feel some relief. I then slept in it. The pain, which had been progressing, was not quite going away, but it wasn't getting any worse either. All in all this was a good purchase. I have since started taking daily inflammation reducing medicine, so that's been helping too, but I like this so much better than the rigid arm band thing that everyone told me to try....and i can keep this on much longer. This turned out to be a pretty good product for a skeptic like me.

I've heard a lot about this brand.As an intense exerciser, I ordered two knees and two elbows as backup.Wouldn't you know that I twisted my knee, the day before they arrived.I did the ice therapy and NSAIDS, but still had difficulty walking, much less running.I wore them the first day and was able to walk without discomfort.On the second day, I pushed it and I exercised.I was able to do > 85% of my maximum.The next day, i did 100%And the next day, I was able to perform without the brace.I don't know exactly how it works, but it performed a miracle for me

was skeptical of course and had a walmart cheepo that hurt my arm and was so hot it could not be world over about 15 minutes. Enter the CU model. Not expecting and difference to start with, but after using the CU for about 5 days I will say that it is far more comfortable and much lighter, does not super heat your arm or bind and scratch the elbow area, or any area. There is no doubt the support eases pain of the inflamed elbow area, its much better than I would have expected. My cheepo is headed for the trash as I can wear this one for hours on end if I want to. Do not know if this will cure the soreness in my elbow but it certainly does feel much better when I wear it and for quite a while after removing the brace. Highly recommend and I was not paid to say this. Cheers !!

I have never used any compression product before these. I looked into these because I started getting elbow pain (Golfer's Elbow) due to my grip being too narrow and shoulders not retracted well enough during heavy low bar squats causing internal rotation and pressure on the elbow. Instead of having to just stop squatting heavy I fixed my grip and bought these. They work. My elbow pain has disappeared during squats and the resulting pain that developed when I bench press has drastically been reduced. A little more time and my pain in the elbows will cease to exist.I have done everything in these besides shower in them. Sleeping in them they are great.. Although I feel that I may have gotten a size too small. I woke up one morning and my hands were swollen, removing the sleeves for a little returned my hands to normal size. I measured my arms 5 inches about the elbow and got just shy of 14 inches and ordered a large. Flexing I am more than 14 inches and with a pump my arms feel like they are being squeezed too much and circulation is being cut off.I have only owned these for a week, lifted in them for 2 session and the decal on the forearm is starting to peel. I have not washed them yet and I think they will peel completely off. The letters for the size and directions for care on the inside of the sleeve have already peeled off entirely.These are great for relieving elbow pain and providing a little more support. I started wearing them at first throughout the whole weight lifting session but have since begun to only wear during the movements that caused the most pain like low bar squat and bench. Make sure you warm up with chin ups or ez-bar curls to get the blood going through your elbows to get the most use out of these.

Decent product, average quality. The logo started to fall apart after 3 days of wear. I owned an Under Armor equivalent and it took 6 years for the logo to fall apart (that includes washing, which I didn't do with this product). As far as copper, there's no actual copper in it. Even if there was, it wouldn't do anything. I asked my physical therapist for his thoughts on wearing it. He didn't care either way, said that it doesn't do anything. So if you want this, go ahead and get it, but it does nothing for any actual arm pain. Fairly sure the creator knows this and is playing on the ignorance of the consumer.

This really works! My arm was throbbing at the gym and after. It impacted my workouts and ached after. I had originally bought a thick bulky wrap that was extremely hot at the gym and hindered my range of motion. This is thin and allows my arm to breath. The support it gives is superior. My arm feels great at the gym and after. I can work out with it and have the same range of motion as if I didn't have it on. It is helping greatly and I ordered more so I have backups when others are being washed. It definitely helped me maintain my passion for the gym, and I don't wake up during the night because of arm pain. I highly recommend!!

Copper United Elbow Sleeve is in my opinion better than the CopperJoint sleeve.The materials are same, proportions are same, and the looks are nearly identical in exception of the company logos. The thing I hate about CopperJoint is the zigzag pattern of adhesive. Copper United Elbow, however, has a single line adhesive making it easier on the skin.This also helps to keep the skin cool. The user of this works in a very dry and hot environment, but this helps to relieve the pain a little bit.

I was excited about trying this sleeve as I have been experiencing very painful tendenitis in my forearm. I measured my arm and ordered the appropriate size. My first impressions were that the sleeve seemed to be fragile and small. I won't say poorly made because I didn't wear it longed enough ro know. It was so tight that I couldn't wear it for more that half an hour. I ended up buying something more substantial, and cheaper, at Walgreens.
