“I enjoy using this sleeve because it's cold just for the 10-15 minutes I need and I can do things while icing my arm. Before I had to sit and hold an ice pack which was restrictive. The small sleeve size is a little big for my arm and the compression is not very tight. I am 5'7†140 lbs so I thought the small would fit tighter. At any rate, I can still ice multiple times a day and still move around so I really like that aspect of it.”
“I've tried so many different cold therapy devices over the years. Most are bulky and complicated. This Cold Therapy sleeve slips right over your foot, ankle, knee,elbow or wrist and is super comfortable. It stays colds for a long time also. I bought two, so that I can have one in the freezer, and one on my ankle. Best sleeve out there!”
“The first time I ordered it I ordered medium for my knee... it came too small for my knee but would have been perfect for a skinny arm for an elbow use! Then I re-ordered a Large and an xtra large! If you keep it in freezer for overnight and use right after exercise or for me tennis then it's perfect! The coldness and duration is the correct time as I would have done with an ice bag but this time I don't have to hold it still! So that is the plus for this product! Also DO NOT throw away the plastic bag that it comes with!”
“Extremely comfortable product. Bought a size S and it fit snug on my knees and elbows. Too loose for ankles but calves might work. I'd recommend letting it 'defrost' out of the freezer for 5 minutes as this product can get COLD! Which means it's effective in relieving pain. Material used is comfortable and fit well. Bought this item because it didn't have straps and velcro's which make it easier to use and the effect is the same if not better.”
“I bought the ice pack to heal tendonitis in my elbow. The instructions are simple. I put in the freezer for 2 hours before using it. The ice pack stays cold for around 10 minutes before it stops having any effect. It's no good if you need to ice an area for longer than that. I tried to use it as a heat pad by microwaving the sleeve for 50 seconds. It works but the heat lasts for around 5-7 minutes. Great product but not for long durations.”
“I've been borrowing a friend's freeze sleeve for my knee pain after running so decided to order this one and give it a try. Definitely worth it. My leg measured 17†about three inches above knee. I almost wish I had gone with medium (I got the large) so I could use it for my occasional elbow pain and fit better but this is fine. I timed it to compare how long the cooling lasts compared to the freeze sleeve and it is every bit as good. The first five minutes feel like frostbite lol and then you get a good icing for about fifteen minutes. I do leave it on for at least 30 minutes because it does hold the cooling effect in during that time to help the swelling in my knee.”
