The utility model discloses a multifunctional elbow corrector, comprising a front support arm and an upper support arm, a hinge hinging the two support arms, and an elastic adjusting rod at least at one side of the front and upper support arms, wherein the rebound direction of the adjusting rod is reverse to the contracture direction of arm muscle, two ends of the adjusting rod are respectively fixed on the front and upper support arms. The utility model has the advantages that since at least one side arm of the corrector is arranged with the elastic adjusting rod, the utility model can provide better positioning function, and via adjust the pretightening force of the elastic adjusting rod, the corrector can make patient move in the elastic deformation range, based on the maximum function station of patient after rehabilitation physical therapy, to move elbow in allowed range of elastic deformation, thereby realizing the limit motion at contracture direction and continuous motion at reversal direction.
