When excessive demands are suddenly made on the tendon where it attaches to the bone of the forearm at the elbow, it becomes painful. The elbow brace applies pressure to specific forearm muscles via the pad, which relieves the tendon where it attaches to the bone of these muscles in the elbow joint. The pressure gradually builds up through the spring-like material in the pad and a small elastic section of the strap. This reduces pain complaints, resulting in exercising with a feeling of assurance.
