Elbow Compression Sleeve Uses
The Elbow Helix Compression Sleeve is a breakthrough in compression. The design helps to relieve joint pain from injuries such as Tennis or Golfer’s Elbow. It is extremely comfortable and provides firm, even compression to the elbow joint .
Targeted support
The Elbow Helix is shorter than the Full Elbow Helix. It provides compression at the joint, making it a more comfortable fit for warmer weather or when injury and pain are specific to the joint.
Which compression wear is best for you.
Athletes who participate in contact sports choose the Elbow Helix for protection of the elbow. Tennis and baseball players are more likely to wear the Elbow Helix for injury prevention.
Fabric science
Body Helix uses the latest advances in fabric science to make straps, wraps, braces and tape obsolete. The Elbow Helix compression sleeve offers medical-grade compression that stays in position even while you serve, volley, throw, hit, punch, or lift.
Form fit tech
The Elbow Helix utilises Form Fit Technology. It has incredible stretch and elasticity, therefore it fits comfortably over the elbow. Consequently, athletes find that our supports do not “bunch up'” in the crease of the elbow. They can be worn for hours without the discomfort caused by other braces and sleeves.
The sleeve will not absorb excess water, bacteria, or odours, and it can be washed after every wear.
What is the difference in styles?
The small Elbow Helix is 6″ long, medium is 8″ and the large is 8.5″.
Alternatively, see the Full Elbow Helix for comparison which is generally preferred by taller athletes and coonsequently provides compression of a larger area.
A proper fit is Important
Measure your biceps 1 to 2 inches above the crease in the elbow with a straight arm. Please do not measure your forearm.

I suffer for severe elbow tendonnitis (at times golfers or tennis elbow). I’ve used my elbow helix three times for playing tennis and I have to admit there’s been a dramatic improvement. I’ve try elbow straps and other neoprene sleeve’s, and nothing works. After tennis my pain would be a 10, 10 being the worse pain, and 1 no pain, I’d give it a 2. Brace is just a little too short. My last complaint is that Body Helix doesn’t put a custumer service number on the website and I had a couple questions. I didn’t feeling emailing back & forth. Anyway, can’t wait for the ankle helix!

From Sofia Wiley, with permission: We received the new elbow sleeve and it is perfect. I have shipped the other one back to you. I am so impressed with your company. I don’t think I have ever had such great customer service—timely, friendly, helpful and very professional. You have great products, but you also run a great company with great people.
Thank you!

Richard and I got our body helix bands yesterday and we tried them out today on the tennis court. We wanted you to know that fit perfectly and we love them! Thank you so much again for going above and beyond to make sure we had the right size and they arrived early.

I must say that I cannot do without my Elbow Helix. Terrible Golf (inner) Elbow. After much treatment and rehab and discovering the Body Helix in 2013, I have been able to play competitive tennis on a weekly basis without pain.

I wanted to give you some feedback. Thank you for all your help. I give this 5 out of 5 stars. I love the support. Whether you have tennis elbow or a bicep issue, if you are a tennis player the Full Elbow Helix may be a better fit.

I love your products. Am trying the new it band helix, but this is my 4th elbow helix. Tennis 5x week wreaks havoc! High quality products. I tried a copper compression sleeve on the recommendation of a friend, but no comparison and I tossed it.

Reviewing: Full Elbow Cool Stretch Product Size Small (I’m 5.5 and weigh 150 lbs)
I have moderate elbow tendonitis and play tennis 2-4 times per week. I live in the hot, humid south and was concerned Body Helix products would be to hot and/or chafe. After about 8 uses I’ve noticed less elbow pain and absolutely no discomfort in wearing the wrap.I don’t over heat and the band works much like a divers wet-suit to normalize the bodies temperature. I work in the therapeutic fitness industry and really put this product to the test. In my body, supporting both the lower and upper ligaments, tendons and muscles are helping my arm recover more quickly.
If you have even a small amount of fat on your arm you will notice it squishing out the end of your wrap which is minor when consider feeling and playing better.
I’ve machined washed and dried it several times and it still looks new.
I gave the product 4 stars because I think it’s over priced.

My elbow started hurting from tennis & got to the point where it hurt all the time. I tried a typical tennis elbow band with velcro & it never fit right. The velcro scratched my arm & it would never stay in the same position on my arm. I use the Body Helix patella knee bands when I run & they are the BEST so I knew I had to get a Body Helix one for my elbow. The full elbow Helix is awesome! Once it’s on, it doesn’t move and I don’t even feel it or notice my elbow pain while playing tennis. I’ve had people ask me about the sleeve & directed them to Body Helix because they are the best!!

I used the elbow brace yesterday playing tennis that I received and loved it! I am sure the shoulder and ankle supports will be fantastic as well.
