    The spiral splint significantly relieved pain and improved function and grip force in patients after 4 weeks of application. The new splint design had a positive effect on the treatment of tennis elbow symptoms which included pain, grip strength, and function. Restriction of rotational movement (e.g. reduction of the supination and pronation of forearm) may have played the main role in this. This new splint design may be considered as a new approach in the conservative treatment and rehabilitation of patients with tennis elbow.
