I have had tennis elbow for almost 1 year now. Anyone who has had this knows the pain and problems I can’t grasp, etc.

Several bandages from the orthopaedist, painkillers and cortisone did not help.

The bandage was recommended by my sister, which also brought her first relief and then freedom from pain.

I have been using the cuff for 3 weeks now and it is incredible. I can touch it without much pain. This is not possible without a bandage.

I hope that I will also be pain-free in a while.

I have had tennis elbow since around May 2022. Initially ignored and dismissed as a trifle, my symptoms worsened and normal movement was hardly possible.

At first I used physiotape, which also helped, but the tapes didn’t last long.

The day before yesterday, I looked for bandages and looked at various types and brands.

As a nurse, I have a certain knowledge background and would like to say a big thank you to the inventor of the Masalo cuff for inventing and offering a practical bandage with brains and understanding.

The Masalo cuff arrived today and I used it immediately. It fits perfectly and directs the forces past the painful area.

The promised pain relief started after 10 minutes. Perfect 👌🏼 Wearing the cuff is still unusual at first, but I will soon get used to it.

Thank you for this great, useful and helpful cuff.

Hello and good day Mr. Harry Röder,

Now that a few months have passed in which I have worn the two Masaloman cuffs regularly – also at night – I would like to describe my experiences. What I am writing to you sounds almost unbelievable and when I say this on the evaluation portal, people say “that’s a hoax”. But it’s not like that. Everything is true as I will now write it down.

After an odyssey of almost 3 months, I finally got the two machines and as soon as I put them on, I felt an improvement within a few minutes. I could do a lot of things again, for example lift a 1.5 litre water bottle without pain. Even drinking a cup of coffee was only possible again because of the rotation of the wrist.

I did not take it easy, rather the opposite was the case. I carried 10 litre full cleaning buckets, carried a 20 litre petrol can and washed my SUV, which is quite high, several times. Vacuuming the flat, cleaning stairs and windows all no problem as long as I wore the cuffs.

When I got careless and thought I could do it without the cuffs, the punishment followed on its heels. So I continued as before. And then it really started.

We had our garden redesigned, but we still had to put a border in the ground to finish it off. I had already planned everything last year and there were already 25 one-metre-long granite edging stones weighing about 30 kilos ready and waiting to be installed. It was no problem at all, with the sleeves, to make the excavation and, without any aids, to simply burn, align and bury the edging stones by hand on the spot. The operation took several days. But it was completely painless.

After this construction site was finished, I had a few weeks of rest before the next project came. Our heating was changed from oil to gas and we now had the basement free where the oil tanks were. I flowed the whole area, had to carry 40 kilo bags, move heavy packages of tiles, paint and plaster everything. Then put up shelves and put everything away.

I was busy for over a week and made the mistake of not using the cuffs at the end. The receipt came promptly. I had the usual pain again. I immediately went back to wearing both cuffs for a few days and have now been pain-free for over 3 weeks and do not wear them at the moment.

Mr Röder, I would like to thank you again for your help and good advice. Without your invention, I would not be ready today. If you would like to publish my report, I will allow you to use my full name. However, as I mentioned at the beginning, I don’t think anyone who doesn’t know me personally will believe my story.

Kind regards from Voerde

Yours, Dieter Banaszak

I heard about the cuff from a colleague. Thank you very much. I had given up. I couldn’t grip a cup, hold a pen, let alone sleep because my arms hurt so much. I still have a long way to go, but after only 24 hours I feel much better.

This is the second time I have had tennis elbow on my right side. First in 2019 and now again in June 2022. Anyone who suffers from tennis elbow knows what pain it can be.

In 2019, I was prescribed braces and bandages (the usual ones). After these bandages didn’t help me at all, but rather made the whole thing worse, as I found the pressure coming from above on the muscle tendons extremely uncomfortable and the pain rather worsened as a result, I dropped the bandages and braces. At that time I was treated with cortisone injections and then I searched the internet for alternatives and came across the Masalo cuff, at that time still in leather, and what can I say …. in my opinion only this cuff helped.

I had to have cortisone injections to get the inflammation out of my arm and the cuff did the rest. I only took the cuff off to take a shower and wore it permanently for up to six months. As soon as I felt a pulling sensation in my arm again, I put the cuff on and after 2 weeks I was calm again.

Now, due to too much stress at work and not paying enough attention to the warning signs of my body, I put so much strain on my right and left arm that my entire right hand was numb and my left arm also started to pinch. So I had tennis elbow again in an acute state, which unfortunately also dragged me down psychologically, because my body completely slowed me down.

Getting dressed, combing my hair, brushing my teeth – everything was only possible with pain, even driving a car and shifting gears was impossible for 1 week.

Now I even had problems with the cuff at the beginning, because it also hurt when I wore it and I didn’t know whether I was squeezing my nerves by putting it on too tightly, because everything was numb.

I then contacted Massalo’s support team, who responded promptly and very helpfully and asked me to send photos so that they could assess the problem. At this point, I would like to thank Mr. Siebert from Support once again.

I have now been treated again twice with cortisone injections. Again, the support wrote to me that this must be treated by a doctor and that the cortisone injections are very effective. After the first injection it took 1 week until it got better.

Today I had the second injection and I think that by next week I should be able to work again with the cuff and the cortisone treatment.

All in all, I have to say that I probably put the cuff on too tightly at first, but I just wanted to immobilise the arm as much as possible because of the pain. I ordered another cuff for my left arm.
