Bauerfeind’s elbow braces, supports and straps provide stability, gentle massage and medical-grade compression to help support and heal the elbow from injury. The German-engineered technology of Bauerfeind braces maximizes proprioceptive feedback and the body’s natural regenerative systems to protect the elbow and speed recovery.

For products with Velcro straps, pads or inserts, remove them if possible, or fasten them securely at the place provided on the brace. Machine wash your brace in cold water using the gentle or delicate cycle. Wash separately using a laundry detergent with no additives (do not use fabric softener). Lay your support flat and let it air-dry; do not put it in the dryer. Proper washing and drying helps your knit support maintain its elasticity and original fit.

Elbow braces and supports from Bauerfeind are also sometimes known as "active supports" – i.e. they make it easier for those who wear them to move around. It’s actually this movement that enables the supports to have a positive effect on the body and the healing process. The massage function and the intermittent compression cannot be activated when you’re immobile, however. For this reason, wearing support at night is not effective. It’s better if you wear the elbow support during the day when you’re active and then let your elbow relax at night.
