Patent number: 4832031Abstract: A method and device for the prevention of and the treatment for epicondylalgia externa, popularly known as tennis elbow. The method involves the absorption and dissipation of the vibrational shocks caused by the off-center hitting of a tennis ball during pronation and supination of the wrist. The device employs a vibration absorbing pad covering either the extensor or flexor muscles of the forearm. The pad is tightly located against the said muscles by means of an elastic tube from the wrist area to the elbow. An elastic strap, located outside the aforementioned tube around the largest diameter of the forearm and fastened by velcro or like fasteners, is an additional member for maintaining the pad in close contact with the arm surface. The aforementioned pad, shaped to conform with the extensor or flexor muscle in the forearm, is filled with a viscous fluid or semi-fluid which will flow enough to maintain a close contact with the muscle from wrist to elbow.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 1985Date of Patent: May 23, 1989Assignee: Rainbow Star Licensing S.A.Inventor: Anthony J.
