MINNEAPOLIS, May 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA), the global leader in tennis-teacher certification and professional development, has signed a multi-year partnership with Stā Active to introduce the Fiix Elbow product to the tennis marketplace. Stā Active's mission is to create innovative rehabilitation products based on science and proven research that addresses painful conditions that impact active people's lives.

Stā Active brings the physical therapy techniques that work, home with simple automated therapy. Just put it on, hit play and let it pull out the pain. Just like the pros do. No appointments, no pills, no needles, just results that work for 96% of our customers. They tell us it hurts so good. Then in 8 weeks, the hurt is gone. We’ve got a patent, but our testimonials are the real proof.

The USPTA and Stā Active will work together to introduce the Fiix Elbow to tennis professionals, clubs, and players to enhance player health, enjoyment, and development outcomes as the "Official Tennis Elbow Recovery Device of the USPTA."

"The Fiix Elbow is the ultimate in-home tennis elbow treatment solution," says John Embree, USPTA CEO. "Stā Active made receiving treatment super convenient while providing the utmost value and long-term success for recovery. The fact that Stā Active offers a moneyback guarantee to reduce elbow pain should convince players and USPTA members alike to try the Fiix Elbow product."

"We're ecstatic to partner with the USPTA and their tennis-teaching professionals," says Stā Active Co-founder and President Tim Porth. "With an automated proven physical therapy technique — 96 percent of study subjects reported reduced pain after using the Fiix Elbow. An adjustable arm strap allows the user to control massage intensity so that they can continue doing activities throughout the Fiix Elbow program, allowing for faster recovery and more time on-court."

The Fiix Elbow device uses medical-grade stainless steel massage elements to break up scar tissue, allowing additional blood flow to the inflamed area with healing cells and oxygen to repair the injury. The eight-week recovery program of 10 minutes a day, three times per week will reduce tennis elbow pain and increase grip strength.
