The best
treatment against tennis elbow! |
|
Tenex® Elbow Shock
Absorber absorbs the vibrations whenever your elbow is
subjected to sudden impact such as golf, tennis, baseball,
hammering, pounding or typing on a keyboard. |
|
|
How does
Tenex® Elbow Shock Absorber work and why is it the most
effective treatment? |
|
Tenex® Elbow Shock
Absorber utilizes a high-density proprietary liquid to absorb
vibrations, significantly neutralizing the force of impact.
For tennis elbow (and golfers
elbow!) this means vibrations transmitted from the tennis
racquet or golf club to the elbow are decreased by 50 -70
percent. As a result, an increase in strength and power may
also occur. |
|
The best treatment against tennis
elbow, golfers elbow, muscle stress and
fatigue! |
|
|
Studies prove
Tenex® Elbow Shock Absorber is the most effective
treatment. |
|
Five independent
clinical studies have shown that Tenex® Elbow Shock Absorber
dampens vibrations better than anything ever seen and actually
prevents tennis elbow or golfers
elbow and tendonitis. Wear it on your wrist, like a wrist
watch, it will help treat injuries and combat pain before
it gets to the elbow! |
|
| Engineering
Studies conducted at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT) and at HAKO Research Laboratories, concluded
that the Tenex® Elbow Shock Absorber reduces migratory
vibrations by 50 - 70 percent making Tenex® the most effective
treatment against tennis elbow and carpal tunnel
syndrome available today. |

|
| Trial Tests
of Tenex® Elbow Shock Absorber on subjects suffering
from tennis elbow revealed a dramatic improvement in their
condition, and in some cases, complete treatment of the
symptoms. |
|
| Clinical Testing
found a measurable improvement in players' strenght
and power, attributable to a reduction in the inhibition
caused by pain: |

"This is a real scientific
breakthrough in the treatment of tennis elbow, the carpal
tunnel syndrome and repetitive motion
disorders." |

Several hundred thousand
people, in over 24 countries,
are usingTenex® Elbow Shock Absorber to battle elbow
pain and carpal tunnel
syndrome. They all agree that it prevents and succesfully

"I developed tennis elbow in 1988.
Because tennis is my bread and butter I would not stop
playing. I tried to play with different bandages hoping for a
miracle. The miracle never came until I was introduced to
Tenex®. I put it on my wrist, and since then my tennis elbow
has disappeared. That was a miracle. I believe 90% of the
people with tennis elbow who have been trying Tenex® have had
100% improvement with the injury completely
disappearing." |

What is Tennis
Elbow? |
|
Tennis elbow is an
injury to the muscles and tendons on the outside (lateral
aspect) of the elbow resulting from overuse or repetitive
stress.
The narrowing of the muscle bellies in the
forearm, as they merge into the tendons, creates highly
focused stress in the areas where they insert into the bone of
the elbow. Injury to the lateral aspect of the elbow is the
most common upper extremity tennis infliction. Tennis elbow is
generally caused by overuse of the extensor tendons in the
forearm, particularly the extensor carpi radialis
brevis. |
|
|
|
|
Outside of the elbow
|
|
|
(lateral epicondylitis) |
|
|
|
|
The location of pain, on the outside
(lateral) of the elbow, is usually gradual with tenderness
felt on or below the joint's bony prominence. Movements such
as gripping, lifting and carrying are
difficult. |
|
|
|
|
50% of players will experience this
condition |
|
|
|
Commonly experienced by the amateur
player, this injury is often a result of
1)
a one-handed backhand with poor technique (the ball
is hit with the front of the shoulder up and power generated
from the forearm muscles), 2)
a late forehand swing preparation with resulting wrist
snap to bring the racquet head perpendicular to the
ball, or 3)
while serving, the ball is hit with full power and speed
with wrist pronation (palm turned downward) and wrist
snap, which increases the stress on the already taught
extensor tendons. The damage incurred with tennis elbow
consists of tiny tears in part of the tendon and in
muscle coverings. After the initial injury heals, these
areas often tear again, which leads to hemorrhaging
and the formation of rough, granulated tissue and calcium
deposits within the surrounding tissues. Collagen, a
protein, leaks out from around the injured areas causing
inflammation. The resulting pressure can cut off the
blood flow and pinch the radial nerve (one of the major
nerves controlling muscles in the arm and hand). |
