Product Description
One size fits most. BandIT XM features a unique, non-constrictive design consisting of two soft-plastic plates curved to the shape of the forearm. The plates have soft cushioned neoprene on the insides and these rest against one's skin. The two plates are held together by a single piece of hook & loop strap which is attached with a metal rivet. It stimulates the body's natural healing process by increasing blood flow and oxygen, by reducing inflammation and muscle spasm and by producing a subtle warmth at the painful site. It is highly effective in relieving pain commonly associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Tendonitis. This product introduces the use of magnetic therapy. "Magna-Therapy", as it often is called, utilizes magnetic pads attached to appendage to enhance natural healing in the area of the elbow. Although not yet approved by the U.S. FDA, magnetic therapy is being investigated as a new remedy for many Repetitive Stress Injuries by the National Institute of Health Office of Alternative Medicine Caution Magnetic products should not be used if pregnant or fitted with cardiac pacemaker and /or automatic internal defibillators. Keep out of reach of magnetictically stored data, ie. computers, discks, credit cards, etc.

5 out of 5 stars Great relief for torn tendon   September 14, 2009
R. A. James (San Jose, CA United States)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Diagnosed with a slightly torn tendon I was looking for a support that would allow me to continue playing as a drummer as well as golf on a weekly basis. I've tried a variety of straps but none of them provided the needed relief. This product definitely does the trick. It's easy to put on and wear, in fact you can leave it on all day without any discomfort. The only issue I have with it is that if you're in hot/humid conditions the pads tend to get very wet, something that can be remedied by placing a small cloth under the pads. Other than that it works wonderfully.


2 out of 5 stars Idea good, velcro BAD   April 16, 2009

This product would have been great, except for the use of unpadded velcro. Velcro all by itself has sharp, rough edges. Wrap some around any soft area on the body and tighten it down. Don't even have to tighten it a lot, a little will do. OK, now leave it for a half hour or more (your tolerance may vary). Eventually you will know you have velcro strapping on your arm, as it attempts to cut into your flesh. It won't cut, but that nice, thin, rough edge will become rather uncomfortable after a while.

The idea is great in my opinion. I've had luck with magnets for other aches & pains, and I liked how the main pad was built and how it dampened the tendon flex. The other pad has a tendency to rest on the inside of your arm and not allow total flexing of your arm.

I'm sending mine back. Traded discomfort and annoyance for some pain remediation. Not worth it. Going to look for something else.

Oh, by the way. If you buy this, or anything for that matter, from "Pro Therapy Supplies" they WILL charge you a 10% restocking fee and their cost to ship the product(s) to you, if you decide to return the item.

My Meniskus is gone and this helped me to run 10, 11 mile in one strech without any need pain or swelling


3 out of 5 stars Not completely happy   June 12, 2008

Product is adequate, and does seem to draw heat/blood to the area. However, wearing as loose as possible without it moving around as instructions suggest offers no benefit. Tighter and it is like a tournique. I have been unable to find a comfortable compromise. I would try a gel base product for compression without cutting circulation.
