Reusable Hot & Cold Replacement Gel Pack with Non-Woven Sleeve (Pack of 2 - Large) for Sports Injuries, Chronic Pain, Joint Stiffness, Swelling, Pain Relief & More.

I'm getting old, and I have a bit of arthritis in my knees, and a slipped disc in my neck.I have one in the freezer, and one I use for heating the microwave. The protective sleeve does a great job of ensuring the hot/cold pack isn't directly against the skin. Seems medical grade to me. Certainly could be used in a hospital, I've seen worse!I told my physio about them, and showed them him. He was impressed. The cold is great for getting rid of inflammation, whilst the hot version is bliss for the tight muscles, and helps them relax.On my bad days, these are my goto. They have helped me out now end, and well worth the money in my humble opinion. I'm thinking of buying another set, so have three in the freezer, and one just spare knocking around for heat.Especially as my kids have found out about them, and how good they are on a hot day.And they are good on a hot day. We don't often get hot days in the UK, but when the thermometer creeps up, this are bliss to help cool you down.They take a while to freeze. But they don't freeze solid, so you can still wrap them around the affected area.In the microwave you will need to squish them around a bit, as it heats up the edges more than the centreI stick them in for a minute. Squish them around, and then another 15 seconds, and squish them some more.You don't have to have arthritis or a slipped disk. I used to do sports (hence the wear and tear), and these would have been amazing for all the pulls and sore muscles after a heavy session.Or just to throw in your bed on a cold winters night, or a hot summers evening. To either cool, or heat up.Very well made. I've had mine for months now, and they are like new.

Had been suffering for a couple of weeks with a bad back with proprietary brands of cream being absolutely useless. Tried ice packs which are a shock to the system and really hard as well. Ordered the gelpacks and hurried one straight into the freezer. What bliss, it wraps round the contours of your back and once inside the non woven sleeve it doesn’t ice burn your back. It seems to stay cold for ages, it’s really weird cause when you touch the gelpack it doesn’t feel freezing, but the skin on your back is really cold to touch, but doesn’t feel it to you, know it sound mad, but if you have one you will know what I Mean. Thoroughly recommend.

I bought a large one to help with back pain. It helped a lot to sleep with it on my back while warm. It's was easy to use, but you need to be careful not to overheat the pack. After a minute in the microwave, the edges might get a bit too hot while the middle seems not to be warm enough, but it's just a matter of wiggling it a bit to mix the gel and get it all at an even temperature. After seeing how useful it was I bought another one, one to have at work and one at home.

Not a lot to say about these ice packs. Though I was pleased to have a bag to keep them in when not in use. A nice touch.

I already have pack, and it works fine, 2 hrs in freezer to get chill or 1-2 mins in microwave, use med for 45 secs, check and then heat in 15 secs modules, you'll find the base level that suits, but wrap in muslin before inserting in wrap (if you have kit).Cold wrap last longer than heated, but usually use each for about 30 mins, depebding on injury area, knees are long wrist and elbows less.I bought this, because as you guessed, I've been treating myself but hot and cold, so 2 gel packs was easier than reusing same one. Recc'd , if you believe in self help. No remedy is instantaneous is it..I blame conditions on covid, gyms been locked , so very little exercise - oops problems, for me.

I originally ordered the gel pack with 'belt' to use following knee replacement surgery. I have found it very effective and since ordered 3 of these additional gel packs. I am icing several times a day during rehab and use two gel packs at a time to encase the whole knee, keeping the other two in the freezer for next use. I've found the ice to be very effective for reducing pain and swelling and recommend for anyone who has had knee surgery.An hour gives a good level of freeze with the pack still flexible. If you freeze for longer, you may need to take them out 15-20 mins before use so that soften up a bit.

freezes well and pliable to wrap around leg arm, or straight on back

Great, say nice a pliable straight out of the freezer

Ottimo da avere in casa, facile da usare. Copre il ginocchio e consiglio di non esagerare con il tempo max indicato nelle istruzioni (solo in inglese)

Ne prend pas la chaleur, idem au froid..... Passer votre chemin

Perfetto

No se puede pedir mas por menos, yo recomendaría siempre el tamaño 18x28 para todo porque aunque el de 13x26 se especifico para tobillos muñecas y demás partes mas pequeñas, este sirve para esas partes perfectamente y para otras zonas mas grandes como la lumbar por ejemplo. Y todo por 0,11€ más

Topp Verarbeitung. Auch nach längerem Aufenthalt im Gefrierfach nicht zu steiff. Ist also immer noch formbar. Mit dem Schutzbezug kann man es direkt auf der Haut anwenden. Kälte wird "relativ" lange gehalten. Wirkt hochwertig und stabil. Ich denke es wird lange halten. Aufgrund der Größe nicht für kleine Partien geeignet. Aber Schulter und größere Flächen werden optimal abgedeckt. Ich konnte bisher nichts negatives entdecken.
