How many more times are you going to inadequately ice your injury with that hard bag of frozen peas or the ice cubes in the zip-lock bag? It doesn’t have to be that way anymore. Even the most active of us tweak our shoulders or turn our ankles from time to time.
Athlete’s choice
The unique gel on the inside of this pack actually stays colder longer than some of the others. It’s also more supple when it’s cold so you can mold it to your injured area. You can even twist it without ruining its integrity. The thick nylon has double-seaming at the sides to keep it strong. We suggest keeping it in the freezer so it’s always at the ready. It cools fully in 1-2 hours.
Two-in-one help
They really have a leg up on their competition because this is a knee wrap and ice all in one. You knew you shouldn’t have walked down those 22 flights of stairs wearing those shoes. But you did and now it’s time to ice. Rather than getting your ice bag and the elastic wrap out, you can now get your neoprene ice pack wrap to stay in place without all the trouble. No more rotating the ice to reach the back, as this design spreads the cooling around, surrounding your knee in soothing comfort.
Quick recovery
Use these reusable ice packs as part of your RICE (Rest, Ice, Compress, & Elevate) injury recovery regimen. Aches and pains fade away when surrounded by heat or cold. Designed not to leak, these packs are ready to use in one hour. The best feature is the sturdy wide strap that adjusts to any size from wrist to quad, that can hold both gel packs at once. Chill one for your brow for headache relief and heat the other for a few seconds in the microwave for your neck.
Easy on sensitive skin
Divided into three sections, it’s great how the gel stays where it’s supposed to, cooling all the painful area. This is especially great for relaxing cramps or heating your back and hips. It looks tough and is durable, but it’s also soft on even your most sensitive skin. If you’ve got kids who play sports or just a weekend warrior, it’s great to have this size (11 inches by 14.5 inches) ice pack chilling in your freezer. Ice is excellent for pain relief, reducing inflammation and swelling. This specially crafted gel stays colder or warmer for a long time.
Not an ice pop
Each bright blue 11-inch by 5.5-inch gel pack has fifty percent more gel than other packs. We love the extra thickness that, with its weight, provides compression to the treatment area. The added gel also means that it stays colder or hotter longer. From the freezer or the microwave, these ice packs help joints and make aches and pains feel better fast.
