Full Elbow Compression Sleeve Uses
Our Full Elbow Helix Compression Sleeve provides support and compression for forearm pain associated with elbow tendinitis or muscle strains. It offers protection for the elbow as well as the biceps, triceps, forearm muscles and tendons. This extremely comfortable sleeve is excellent as a Tennis Elbow support (lateral epicondylitis) and a Golfer’s Elbow support (medial epicondylitis).
It is suitable for distal biceps and triceps injuries or proximal forearm injuries associated with the forearm pain. The support also provides a moderate level of support to the joint and the attached structures.
The Helix utilises Form Fit Technology. The incredible stretch and elasticity of our elbow sleeve makes it easy to fit comfortably over the joint and allows for a complete bend.
The Helix diminishes or eliminates forearm pain from tendinitis and other overuse injuries and inflammation while still allowing a full range of motion. The sleeve is also ideal for the forearm preventing injury during contact sports, providing protection and compression to the upper arm, elbow and forearm.
Most users find that our elbow supports will not “bunch up'” in the crease of the elbow and 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 use.
What is the difference in styles?
The small Full Elbow Helix sleeves is 8.5″ long and the medium and large are 11″ long. This provides a longer area of support for the arm and forearm when compared to the Elbow Helix.
The Full Elbow Helix is generally preferred by taller athletes when compression of a larger area than just the elbow is desired.
A proper fit is important
It is very important to measure your biceps 1-2 inches above the crease in the elbow (antecubital fossa) with a straight arm in order to get a proper fit. Please do not measure your forearm.
What size should I get if I am between two sizes?
As a general rule, if you are a muscular athlete, you will want the smaller of the two sizes. If you are not quite so lean, the larger of the two sizes will be slightly more comfortable. However, you may not fit the general rule but prefer a smaller or larger size based purely on comfort.
If you need help deciding which Helix is correct, consider the size of your arm, the cause of the pain and the area of pain; If you are tall, have a large area of pain and have pain because of overuse, the Full Elbow Helix will provide more support and compression than the Elbow Helix.

Tom, thanks for being so helpful. I learned about your product when I visit Boise, Idaho. A woman was selling the product to my sister in law and others tennis players at Cranecreek Country Club. I had both tennis and golf elbow issues for over two years and Helix helped me get through the through the injury. I still wear it the elbow brace when playing tennis because I feel it helps me avoid injurying the elbow. I have a serious 20 year old double break to left ankle from my professional career in motorsports. The discovery of lace up ankle braces was key for me to stay on the court but using only one was causing issues with my knee and hip so I went to wearing on both ankles. This worked but I felt like my ankles were getting weaker from this program. I am hoping that the Helix ankle brace that I am buying will be another progression to healing and playing sports

Thank you for getting the elbow band to my husband so quickly. It arrived this morning before he left for the tournament! I’ve been wearing your product for a year and it has helped my elbow tremendously.

As a petite adult tennis player, it is very challenging to find quality products to support various body parts prone to injury so I was delighted when my physical therapist recommended BodyHelix. I had the opportunity to go directly to the site to have a custom fitting. Krystal and Sara were absolutely delightful and helpful to work with. After trying on an elbow and knee sleeve, I was sold! They are working with me to customize an elbow slleve to fit and are having it shipped to me immediately. I will tell all of my tennis friends expecially the ones over 40 who are always nursing injuries and trying to stay healthy on the courts so we can continue to enjoy playing for many many years!

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.

The Elbow Helix was not the support that I needed, so I ordered the Full Elbow Helix. Using the online measurement specs, I found the suggested SM was uncomfortably tight. The MED. Full Elbow works great!

I truly believe in the Body Helix products.
It was amazing how quickly it resolved my tennis elbow problem four years ago. Back then, I had just started playing Pickleball and could barely lift a milk container out of the fridge or shake someone’s hand. I had tried other products before the Body Helix which really did not work. After two days with the elbow Body Helix the pain was gone.
And the knee and shoulder products are super as well. Your products are keeping me on the Pickleball courts, which is a passion of mine.

I purchased your product from an independent dealer. A large full elbow wrap and Love the product.

I have used several of your compression products including the ankle, knee, wrist and elbow braces (thankfully all on a temporary basis). I am very impressed with the quality and durability of each and consider them the best products of this type I have ever used.
Keep up the great work and once again thanks for your prompt assistance.

I love your products – wear two for my knees, one on my elbow, my back and now my ankle. You might try marketing to the Pickleball community….that is what I use your products for and it is supposedly the fastest growing sport in America….lots of opportunity.

A woman in a local tennis shop overheard me talking about my tennis elbow and recommended the elbow sleeve. I have been using it for a few months and it has made all the difference in the world and has enabled me to stay on the court. Now need to add the wrist.

We are a very active family of 4 and we LOVE all of our Body Helix products. We own everything from the calf and knee sleeves to the elbow and bicep sleeves. Because we are so active, using the Body Helix items for injury prevention is a must.
The customer service this company provides is superior. All of our questions have been answers and products delivered lighting fast.
If you see us on the tennis courts, running a marathon, or rock climbing, you can bet we will have on our Body Helix!

I absolutely love my Body Helix elbow sleeves! I have fairly severe tendonitis and these sleeves allow me to continue training. Unlike other sleeves, they are a snug/tight fit but are still very comfortable. They never ever slide down or roll up and stay perfectly in position. They also don’t lose their shape or stretch and wash/dry well. My elbows feel fully supported without restricting my movement whatsoever. I highly recommend them!
Robert Hawkins (store manager) –
Many thanks for your review Nahid, I’m really glad the supports work well for you.

I had been suffering from tendonitis caused by playing table tennis and although I tried applying anti inflammatories (ibuprofen, voltarol), resting up from playing and also using hot and cold for many weeks, the relief was temporary and the pain returned as soon as I started playing again. Since using the body helix elbow compression sleeve the pain has gone away and has stayed away for a month now even when after I started playing again. I will continue to use the sleeve when I play table tennis in the future as I believe it will prevent the pain coming back. A big thank you to Total Wellness Pain Relief Clinic in North London who measured me up and supplied the sleeve!
