- Improves proprioception (or joint awareness) during movement
- Breathable, lightweight, moisture-wicking materials for all-day comfort
- Low-profile, anatomical design for precise fit
Engineered in Germany, Bauerfeind braces deliver medical-grade compression and anatomical support without limiting your mobility. Whether you’re managing golfer’s elbow, recovering from knee injuries, or preventing lower back strain, our braces offer active stability and relief for a more confident swing.
Performance-Driven Braces Designed for the Course
Bauerfeind’s golf braces combine clinical effectiveness with athletic performance, from zone-specific compression to a low-profile design, for better movement throughout every swing.
Using our patented flat-knit technology, each brace provides medical-grade compression to stimulate specific muscles around the joint for better relief while swinging. Breathable, lightweight, and moisture-wicking materials ensure all-day comfort, and because Bauerfeind braces are machine washable, you’ll have high-quality support that lasts season after season.
Play more golf, recover faster, and protect your joints with braces trusted by athletes and recommended by healthcare professionals worldwide.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What are the most common injuries in golf?
Overuse injuries are the most common among golfers and can occur for a variety of reasons, including poor swing technique, poor posture, fitness level, and warm-up routine.
Golf’s most common injuries include:
- Medial epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow): EpiTrain, Sports Elbow Support
- Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow): Sports Elbow Support, EpiTrain
- Acute wrist and hand injuries: ManuTrain, Sports Wrist Strap
- Lower back pain and strain: LumboTrain, Sports Back Support
- Rotator cuff injuries: OmoTrain, OmoTrain S
- Knee injuries: GenuTrain, Sports Knee Support
Bauerfeind braces offer medical-grade support and relief to keep overuse strain from handicapping your game. Using medical-grade compression, our golf supports increase circulation and proprioception to reduce pain and swelling.
How to prevent injuries while golfing?
Many golf-related injuries are overuse injuries. Improving your swing technique and posture, as well as following a proper warm-up routine, can greatly reduce the risk of injury while golfing.
Whether you’re a novice or an experienced golfer, consider the following to avoid injuries:
- Lessons from a professional golf instructor for proper posture and technique
- Wearing a golf brace or support to help stabilize your joints and relieve pain and swelling
- Staying hydrated during and after your round
- Avoiding extensive practice sessions and back-to-back rounds
What is the difference between golfer’s elbow and tennis elbow?
Golfer's elbow and tennis elbow are similarly caused by repetitive stress on the elbow, leading to pain and swelling in the area.
Symptoms of golfer’s elbow, such as pain and stiffness, occur around the bony protrusion on the inside of the elbow, while symptoms of tennis elbow, such as pain, stiffness and swelling, occur on the outside of the elbow.
People with golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis) can also experience tingling and numbness in their fingers, as well as pain radiating down their arms. With tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis), people may feel a weakened grip, a burning sensation, or pain on the outside of the elbow when rotating the hand.
Although one is termed “golfer’s elbow” and the other “tennis elbow,” you can still experience golfer’s elbow from tennis and tennis elbow from golf. The moniker stems from medial epicondylitis, which often occurs in golfers, and lateral epicondylitis, which often occurs in tennis players.
What’s the best treatment for golfer’s elbow?
Treatment options for golfer’s elbow will depend on the severity of your condition. Applying an ice pack around the area can help reduce acute pain and swelling. If you’re experiencing severe pain and stiffness, it’s best to rest until these symptoms subside.
Bauerfeind’s EpiTrain golfer’s elbow brace is great for anyone experiencing golfer’s elbow because it uses medical-grade compression and two viscoelastic massage pads to stimulate your elbow muscles, reduce swelling and help the healing process. Furthermore, wearing a brace can limit the risk of re-injury or strain.
As always, please consult your health care provider to create and manage your recovery plan.
Is golf bad for your lower back?
Golf can be hard on your lower back due to its high-torque, repetitive twisting motion, but maintaining proper form, hip mobility, and a strong core will help prevent lower back pain and strain.
Wearing a lower back brace can help limit the risk of injury or strain. Bauerfeind’s LumboTrain back brace and Sports Back Support feature circular compression and a low-profile, anatomical design to improve lower back stability and relief without restricting movement.
Are Bauerfeind golf braces and supports FSA/HSA eligible?
Yes, many of Bauerfeind’s golf braces and supports are eligible for reimbursement through most FSAs (Flexible Spending Accounts) and HSAs (Health Savings Accounts). View our HSA/FSA-eligible products for more information.
Additionally, because FSA/HSA plans vary, we recommend contacting your employer or plan administrator to confirm eligibility and reimbursement before purchase.
Are Bauerfeind braces and supports machine washable?
Yes, Bauerfeind braces and supports are machine washable, and we recommend washing them regularly in cold/cool water on the gentle or delicate cycle before laying them flat to air-dry, as this will help maintain the product’s fit, comfort and effectiveness. It’s fine to wash using regular laundry detergent, but avoid using additives (such as fabric softener or Woolite), as this can damage the knit fabric.
For products with Velcro straps, fasten them securely at the place provided on the brace. For more information, please visit Bauerfeind’s Product Care Guide.
What if I’m between sizes? Which brace or support should I purchase?
Bauerfeind braces and supports are anatomically contoured and are most effective when they fit perfectly. Your brace or support should support you firmly without feeling tight or loose. Please use the size chart to size correctly.
If between sizes, we’d recommend contacting our team of expert product specialists at (800) 423-3405 on Monday-Thursday from 9am-6pm EST and Friday from 9am-5pm EST.
