Thermal shoulder wrap with hot/cold reusable gel pack included

Amazon.com Product Description
The McDavid thermal shoulder wrap is designed to provide safe, effective, hands-free treatment for injuries with maximum comfort and convenience. The shoulder wrap works with both soothing hot or icy cold therapy, with an insulating neoprene material that helps maintain the desired temperature. Cold is generally applied to acute injuries immediately after trauma, as cold therapy constricts blood vessels to reduce the swelling, block pain, and promote healing. Compression and elevation are also important in the immediate treatment of acute injuries. By contrast, users should apply heat to chronic injuries (ongoing conditions). Heat therapy increases the blood flow to the injured area, helping the body remove and reabsorb cellular byproducts. Heat is also soothing, and can reduce pain and stiffness. Note, however, that heat should never be applied to an acute injury unless under the direction of a sports medicine professional.

Great shoulder wrap by J. Boksha 5 Stars
November 22, 2009
This is a great way to ice your shoulder. The ice packs are nice and flexible and fit nicely into the compartments in the shoulder wrap. It allows you to be completely mobile while you ice your shoulder! I have not used it for warmth yet, but if you want to ice your shoulder this works great.

The shoulder wrap is as good as advertised. Fits well even though I am petite.

The two ice gels fit into the shoulder wrap nicely. The straps are velcroe and adjust to most bodies. Good choice.

I bought this for recovery from surgery on my shoulder. It was very valuable for pain & inflammation control. It is not a 5 star as it is slightly uncomfortable under the arm. Overall I would recommend it.
