 BandIT is simply the best in its class |
| Review Date: July 21, 2006 |
| Reviewer: Farley X Wilbur, Colorado |
I've suffered from occasional bouts of tendonitis and the consequential irritation of the ulnar nerve for many years. I have an active work and sports life, so my activities sometimes result in injuries that once took weeks or months to to heal. Until I found BandIT I had no choice but to completely rest my arm and use anti-inflammatory medicine. I've also learned the use of the BandIt during potentially injurious activities can completely prevent the injury to begin with.
While I didn't purchase BandIT through Amazon, I've owned one for more than five years and in that time it has managed to prevent the injury or shorten the recovery period from tendonitis and reduced the need for anti-inflammatory drugs, all the while allowing me to continue to work and participate in sports. While I do need to take some extra precautions against reinjury, I've never found another product, including the Futuro tendonitis brace and other similar bands, that have duplicated the results of this product. Bottom line: the BandIt places pressure at the exact two points necessary to releive 90% of the stress on the tendon, allowing it to recover and heal. I still recommend the use of ice for the first 48 hours, and then alternating ice and heat until the inflammation is completely gone. P.S. the KneedIt product for the knee works just as well for similar knee problems. Great healing products, great preventive products!! |
The best that I've tried

| I have chronic tendonitis in both elbows. I have tried other orthopedic devices from a specialist but nothing compares to the Band-It elbow brace. The Band-It elbow brace is both very effective and comfortable. Use it with confidence! I have continued with the physical therapy exercises to strengthen the tendons. I'm completely satisfied with the Band-It elbow brace. I have no affiliation with the company or its products. |
Best Ever! I even wear it to bed!

| I basically blew out my right elbow swinging a hammer for 6 weeks this past summer. I have not been able to get any relief from the constant pain of what was diagnosed as "tennis elbow". I have ran the course of several different types of NSAID's, physical therapy and cortisone shots, to no avail. I have also purchased several other types of elbow supports to relieve the pain, but again no avail. All they did was cut off my circulation, and cause swelling and knubness in my hand. A co worker told me about her device called "BandIt" I tried it on and wow what a great feeling. No circulation issues at all. It does not move from where it is placed! I use a peice of an old sock as a sleeve to assist with sweat under the band and irritation from the velcro at the inside bend of my elbow. I have wore it to bed and did not have any pain trying to move around in bed. I get up with out any pain. No more NSAID's for me...I LOVE this BandIt. |

It Actually Works

| Review Date: July 21, 2009 |
| Reviewer: B. Boyles, |
A little background...I played tennis in college and during the end of my senior season experienced some severe tennis elbow. I attributed it to the fact that I was very hard on my arm with exaggerated strokes over several years so after college I took 4-5 years off. I assumed that would be long enough for my arm to heal.
I started playing tennis again a year ago and the tennis elbow came back, just as bad as it had been before. I literally could not even pick up my water bottle after matches. I was extremely frustrated and was worried that surgery was my only option.
My dad ran across this brace and purchased for me in hopes of solving my problem. I will be honest...I was kind of skeptical. I have tried lots of other braces in the past and they really haven't done much for me. The first match I tried the band-it I did experience moderate pain. The second time, however, the pain was lessened. After the third time hitting with it, the pain start to disappear! I can now play through a whole match with very little to no pain and NO SORE ARM in the morning.
The band-it is an incredible product and a great solution for anyone who is experiencing chronic tennis elbow pain. Give it a try but make sure you use it 4-5 times in order to really evaluate it. I am hopeful that eventually I will not have to use it at all! |
Relief from Golf Elbow

| Review Date: September 6, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Barry E. Chiet, Boca Raton, FL |
| I have suffered from golfers elbow (in both elbows) for the last several years. I have played golf at least twice a week for over 20 years and I love it. I have tried all kinds of creams, gels and even cortisone but all of these only masked the problem. It kept getting worse. Of course I kept playing golf through the pain wearing various straps, air-casts and the like. Even when I did take several weeks off not playing or even practicing at all the pain persisted so I figured I would learn to live with it until it became too unbearable to play anymore and then be forced to quit. Then I heard about the BandIT and decided to try them. I bought 2 of them and didn't notice any difference at first but after playing 3 or 4 rounds of golf with them the pain seemed to be easing. It has been several weeks now and although the pain is not completely gone it has remarkedly lessened. On a scale of 1 to 10 where before the BandITs it was about an 8 I would say now it is only at 2. I don't know if the pain will eventually be completely gone but I no longer think about giving up the game that I love. Thank you BandIT. |
Great product, just what I needed

| Reviewer: C. Russo, Alpharetta, GA |
After trying a cheap (cheaply made, not priced) tennis elbow brace from the sporting goods store, I poked around online to see if I could find something better. The reviews on Amazon and elsewhere seemed to be overwhelmingly positive for the Band-It, so I ordered it. My one reservation was that it looks kind of cheap from the pictures and I was worried that it may not be comfortable.
It arrived in the mail a few days later and I've been using it for my last 4 matches. I love it. I know that you're not supposed to rely long term on a brace like this (you're supposed to rehabilitate through stretching and building the supporting muscle groups) - but wearing the brace really seems to help.
What I like about it is that it's a very simple design but the firm plastic back and attached rubber pad allow me to create the pressure right where it feels most comfortable and with the precise amount of force that I want. Adjustments are easy enough to make. I can tune it between points without interrupting the flow of the match. |
Much better than other types

| Reviewer: Michael W. Graham, N Myrtle Beach, SC USA |
| I have medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow) and have had it chronically for 3 years. It is a great help to me to wear these type of arm braces. This one is the best by far. The types you buy in your local drugstore (Futuro, etc) work ok, but they can also cut off circulation & are not comfortable. This one does not do that at all and in addition it allows more pressure on the tendon and so works better. |
Great product

| Great for tennis elbow, ping pong elbow, snow shoveling elbow. "Tennis elbow" is caused by an inflamed tendon in the forearm and BandIt Band stopped the strain on mine and its healing nicely. Fine product. |
