About Us

We originally began our project with a different idea focusing on stretching and making a machine that would help one to stretch at home that helped them achieve that deep level of stretch. However, after feedback from the STEM board and further reconsideration of the idea we decided to make a massage brace that would help relieve people of forearm pain caused by tennis elbow. 

This idea stemmed from our brainstorming session where we discussed everyday problems that many people face that don’t currently have a good solution. We realized that many of our parents had tennis elbow, a forearm pain caused by the overuse of a muscle in the forearm. We then began to research current solutions to this problem and found that the only way to heal tennis elbow is through massage, rest, or surgery. As surgery is an expensive option, and rest isn’t always possible for most people, we realized how useful and practical a massage brace to help with tennis elbow would be.

 The goal of our design is to aid as many people as possible by providing a cheap (cheaper than surgery) and effective way to help ease the pain caused by tennis elbow. Our device is a massage brace that includes a battery pack, two motors with massage rollers attached to them that effectively massage the user’s forearm. This design comes with three speeds and an adjustable vector allowing for a comfortable experience for the user. We believe that our product will help people across the world ease forearm pain without having to go through surgery or paying a massive amount of money.
