Amazing! August 11, 2010
Robert H. Rineer
This product is amazing! After reading a short Reader's Digest article about this product helping with tennis elbow with particular exercises, and reading the reviews on Amazon.com, I decided to order the Red Thera-Band Flexbar. I watched a couple of videos on YouTube that demonstrate how to use the "Tyler Twist" and "Reverse Tyler Twist" exercises, and I began doing both. Almost immediately my elbow pain left! I used to have shooting pain (like hitting your crazy bone) that would come anytime, without warning. Now, when I do these (15 reps once a day at least, sometimes 3 times a day), the elbow pain is absent. If I miss for a couple of days it sometimes comes back. A side benefit, the carpel tunnel pain in my wrist is also gone! I don't know if it's related to the exercises or not, but I certainly feel better!

The item was exactly as promised, thanks for helping to spread the ability to strengthen and flex while assuring less chance of injury for our young high school golfer!
THANKS!!
 Golf Elbow Continues August 8, 2010
Margaret Civil (Colorado Springs, CO United States)
I have been using the Thera-band for seven weeks. I forget to use it twice per day and so I am giving myself more time to completely reduce the pain in my golf elbow that I didn't get playing golf. I turned several screws years ago with my left hand. After several cortisone shots I decided to try the Thera-band and I haven't given up.
Rehab for the wrist July 21, 2010
Linda Shumake
I bought this based on reviews by the health and training industries. It has worked wonders for the tendinitis in the left wrist. I would only recommend this for people who are familiar with physical therapy or personal training in the gym. It is easy to use and follow directions, but if you are not sure about your condition, you can injure yourself.
Tennis elbow July 6, 2010

I use the theraband flex bar every day at work. Three months ago
pain was gradully worse and was losing sleep at night with throbbing pains in the elbow and forarm. Icing arm at work and at home 2 to 4 trimes a day.
After the theraband flex bar for 3 weeks the pain is geadually less.
I use ice ocassionally at work and sometimes in the night. I also have had 2 cortisone shots in the elbow.
I know the problem came on slowly over a lone time but with continued use if the Flexbay and occaional icing I am getting better.
