In October, I developed tennis elbow due to overuse. Initially treated with ointment and bandages, it went on like this for a few weeks. Everything was still "manageable", but then in mid-December it was no longer possible to shake someone's hand or carry the coffee pot.

What now, so close to Christmas? Icame across the Masalo cuff. Ok, it costs a few euros, but if it's ever no good it's annoying but it won't ruin me. So I bought the cuff and wore it day and night for 4 weeks as recommended.

After 4 weeks only at night and after 6 weeks slowly started strengthening exercises with a cuff again. After 2 months I also stopped doing them at night, as the pain was almost completely gone.

Now only wear the cuff when you're doing strenuous activities such as digging in the garden or fitness training.

Of course the tennis elbow isn't completely gone yet. It takes months, but I didn't think I'd be back in such good shape now, barely 2.5 months after it started.

I can therefore only recommend not waiting too long and wearing the cuff before it gets even worse.

I ordered the cuff online from Body-Planet.

It all started in mid-October last year. The pain in my elbow became so severe that it was hardly possible to lift a glass. After several visits to the doctor and 6 weeks of sick leave and still no improvement in sight, I came across the masalo cuff..... I ordered it without hesitation. I didn't care about the price, something had to happen. After 2 days it was already there. I put it on alone at first and was not satisfied. Hardly any or no improvement. I then sent photos of the fitted cuff to the masalo team. My application was absolutely incorrect and they explained to me exactly how I could achieve the best effect. I have been wearing it for about 8 weeks now and am virtually pain-free, which is a miracle for me. I have now stopped doing krankengym and I only wear the cuff when I am under pressure as otherwise it is no longer necessary

Thank you

I have had severe pain in my right arm (tennis arm) since August. The first doctor gave me a cortisone injection , cortisone tablets and a bandage . After a few weeks I had to go to the emergency service because of all the pain so I got a Gibs. Unfortunately that didn't help either. At some point I came across the cuff thanks to the internet. I have been wearing it for 2 months now and I can say that it has improved by 80%. I am completely at peace.

I have been wearing the Masalo cuff since November 2018.

Day and night for the first 2 months. After just 5 days, I noticed a clear improvement under load.

However, I have to say that I still received shock wave therapy (5 times).

At the moment I am also having physiotherapy (18 times). I am now 80% pain-free.I now only wear the cuffwhen I am exercising and I would never have thought that the cuff would help so much.

Thank you very much for this invention.

After lengthy research and 2 unsatisfactory visits to the doctor a la "keep calm and everything will be fine in a few weeks", I ordered the cuff.

At first I thought €80 was a tough price to pay on the premise of what happens if it doesn't help. Since I simply didn't want to start a 4-8 week "keep your arm still" program, becausethat is simply impossible, I ordered the cuff.

Timeline: Pain started at the beginning of November, until the middle/end of December I hoped it would go away on its own. Then ordered the cuff at the end of December.

The cuff was put on in January.

The first week consisted of a few hurdles that had to be overcome, fitting is individual and the instructions only help to a limited extent. I had to adjust the cuff 3 times to get a good fit.

The first time I probably put them on too tightly and my arm "swelled up" a bit - but it wasn't too bad. After that it worked. And now for the best part: after the 2nd week I felt an immense drop in pain - suddenly it only hurt half as much. After 4 weeks, the pain was almost completely gone. Really intense. I simply hadn't expected it.

After 3 weeks I had already started doing sports - I could even play American football.

God willing I will never need a cuff again, but if the worst comes to the worst I will get one straight away or put the old one on.

Current pain status btw: almost no more pain, only with extreme strain on the forearm it still pulls. However, I'm not using the cuff for the time being as I don't have any pain in everyday life, only when I put provocative strain on my forearm.

So why only 4 stars:

1. because nobody reads the 5-star reviews anymore, everyone thinks it's fake 🙂 But believe me: it helps

2. because two things aren't quite so cool after all: I completely scratched my desk with the buckle. A problem that is difficult to fix in terms of construction. And then there's the issue of sport. Unlike a sleeve or something similar, the cuff just looks super dirty from sweat etc. at some point. Even repeated cleaning only helps to a limited extent. So it does help, but you don't really feel like it. Of course, I have to say that this is completely normal.

Conclusion: Treat yourself to the cuff, in the end €80 for a healthy arm is a joke. And: stick with it, you should be able to hold out for a few weeks.
