Choosing a Bauerfeind tennis elbow strap
A tennis elbow strap is usually worn around the upper forearm, below the elbow, to support comfort during gripping, racquet sports, lifting, keyboard work, and tool use. Bauerfeind EpiPoint is the focused strap choice, while sleeve and armband alternatives can suit people who want more coverage or a different pressure feel.
Use this selector to match the main activity with the support route that usually makes the most sense.

Fit, use, and safety guidance
- Place most forearm straps below the elbow on the muscle area, not directly over the elbow crease.
- Tighten only enough for a stable feel during gripping, with fingers staying warm and normally colored.
- Recheck fit during tennis, pickleball, golf, tool use, or typing because forearm size changes with muscle tension.
- Choose a sleeve route when you want more contact around the elbow instead of a narrow pressure point.
- Stop using the support and get guidance if numbness, tingling, unusual swelling, or increasing discomfort appears.

When to check with a clinician first
Check with a clinician before choosing a strap if elbow pain followed a fall, there is visible swelling or bruising, grip strength changes suddenly, symptoms travel into the hand, or daily activities are becoming harder. Professional guidance can help match support style, fit, and activity changes to your situation.
