How does ForeArmed work?
The short answer: ForeArmed was designed to optimize the benefits of counterforce dampening, an effective mechanism that dissipates traumatic forces concentrated on the tendinous origin and stimulates secretion of naturally occurring pain modulators to the target site. Limitation of full contractile expansion of the musculotendinous unit decreases muscle force transmitted to the tendinous origin. Incoming energy forces to the elbow are dampened by the Active Implant Elements that apply pressure to the extensor and triceps tendon insert sites. The Active Pressure Elements that apply force over the insertion sites prevent the repetitive pathological insults of tendinosis by dissipating the energy wave traveling close to the insertion sites. Shock absorbing components that fit over the medial and lateral epicondyles further counteract and dissipate shock and vibratory energy in the elbow. For more information, please click here.
