Reusable Ice Packs - 14x11" Hot/Cold Gel for Sports Therapy, 60-80 Characters

I had a hip replacement and need to use ice to keep my swelling and pain reduced. It has been hard to find a single resuable compress that is large enough to cover the top of my thigh and 8 inch incision. Even in the hospital i needed to use two ice packs to cover the affected area and then keeping them where i wanted them was impossible. I found this gel pack on Amazon and am thrilled that it is wide enough to cover my entire thigh, even down the side of my hip and up to the top of my incision which is just below my waist. The cover that comes with the gel pack has elastic straps that are long enough to wrap around my waist and can loop around my leg... with velcro at the ends that hold the compress securely against my leg and stays right where i want it. I can move around easily (laying or walking) with the gel pack on, it doesn’t shift as i move. This gel pad/cover combination has given me great relief and is contributing to my fast recovery. It exceeds my expectations. Well worth the price. I recommend this product very highly.I am adding this comment, i just read several bad reviews and their main objections were the fact that the icy cold does not last 2 hours and the length of the straps. My understanding is that ice packs should not to be applied for more than 20 minutes to avoid frostbite, so since i followed my doctor’s directions i had no issue with the duration of the gel pack icy-state. It was more than adequate for my purpose and there were plenty of ice crystals in the pad after i returned it to the freezer when i was done. Regarding the ‘petite’ person who could not wrap the straps around her leg. I can tell you that i am not petite but normal a size 10. I had to wrap the straps around my thigh TWICE they were so long and the strap i used around my waist was more than sufficient to fit; keep in mind, the straps are elastic so they could have been longer.

I've actually had this setting around in the box for over a year bc I bought it for my Dad but my mom didn't think he needed it. So until I fell and got hurt at work last week I didn't really need it. I've yet to heat it up but as a cold pack it works wonderful. It says it only stays cold for about 60 mins but I put it on before heading to the ER and it lasted the 3 hours I was there. Staying at minimum cool enough to give some relief to my injury while I waited to be seen. Heck it's winter where I'm at right now and I took it to work in my cold car and left it there until I needed it and it still stayed cold 6 hours later. Easy to use but I find i the strap ends Velcro to any part of the pouch it goes in if I don't fold it over the strap to stick it to itself while I wrap around where I need it which can get annoying. I wish it was big enough to reach from my foot to my knee but the price is reasonable enough that getting another one would be worth it. 10/10 would recommend.

This is a nice quality wrap. Great for knees and larger body parts, shoulders, back, hip, etc... I bought it for my elbow and it isn't perfect for that...Pros: Gets REALLY, REALLY cold. Generous size. Easy to wrap around everything but your own arms.Cons: Very difficult to wrap around your own elbow. Hard to get it tight and to line up the right sides of the velcro. Much easier to have someone else do it. I even tried pressing in up against the wall for a third hand but it just didn't work well. So I had someone help me adjust it to my elbow and I just slipped in on and off until I had to use for my back. Now I can't get a good fit on the elbow again.Other than that this is a very good product and I highly recommend it.

I bought these to use for icing horse's legs. Boots made for this are exceptionally exceptionally expensive and there are complaints on many that they don't stay cool for long. These work well for icing. The Velcro sticks anywhere on the straps, so I have been wrapping them around and around snugly to give some compression. There's enough strap to cover most of the surface once. I can't attest to how long the material will hold up to the snug pressure, but for now it is working and beats $100-200 per pair of boots. The extra large size is just large enough to cover from below the knee to the bottom of the fetlock on my 16h horse. It just meets in the front on the cannon bone and gaps over the fetlock a bit. I left them on today for 50 minutes while working another horse and they were still cool when I removed them. They don't ever feel exceptionally cold, but they are definitely cool. They remain very flexible right out of the freezer. This is a great hack for those not wanting to drop large amounts of cash and should do the same thing as more expensive "compression" ice boots.

This wrap I use for when I feel a migraine headache coming on. It works perfectly & after a good 20 minutes it gives me relief from the pain. It wraps wonderfully around my head with a velcro wrap so it’s adjustable. It comes with 2 ice gel packs. One stays cold for a good 20 minutes fresh from the freezer. The pack slides into the wrap & velcro shuts. My took a picture to show you what it looks like around my head. It’s designed so it’s extremely easy to use. I keep the wrap in the freezer as well so it’s cold & ready for the ice pack when I need it. The ice packs are flat & do not take up much space in my freezer. This is well worth what I paid. I highly recommend if you suffer from migraines!

This is the second tine I have bought this reusable ice pack. It's durable and as described. It wraps around my shoulder, my knee, and anywhere I need it because it's very flexible. The velcro works great. Highly recommend it.

Works fine as an ice pack. I don't recommend this as a heat pack as it erupts when microwaved, and I've had this happen to me three times.

Flexibilité et bonne quantité de gel dans les compartiments de la ceinture.Parfait pour le mal de dos.

Needed an ice pack for knee, hip & shoulder problems. This item adequately did the job for all three.
