Using your ice pack

How do I use it cold?

Put the pack in the freezer for at least 2 hours. The gel stays soft and flexible when frozen, so it shapes to your back, knee, or shoulder instead of sitting on top of it.

How do I use it hot?

Follow the heating directions on the pack label, warming it in short bursts in the microwave or in hot water. Do not heat it longer than the label says, because overheating can cause the pack to leak or burn your skin. Always test the temperature against your skin before use.

How long should I leave it on?

15 to 20 minutes at a time. After that, the risk of skin irritation, frostbite, or burns goes up. Give your skin a break between sessions.

How does the wrap work?

Slide the pack into the wrap, place it where it hurts, and fasten the Velcro. The strap adjusts to fit most adults around the lower back, knee, elbow, shoulder, or ankle, so you can keep moving while you ice.

How do I clean it?

Wipe the pack with a warm, damp cloth and let it dry before you put it back in the freezer.

Is it safe? What’s in the gel?

Every part of our packs, including the gel inside, is non-toxic. The fabric is soft and gentle on skin. We guarantee our packs will not leak or break when used as directed.
