Customer Reviews of Elasto-Gel All Purpose Therapy Wraps 9"x24" 2 straps 2Óx21Ó TW6010
Customer Review: elasto-gel hot-cold wrap
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this specific product having already tried it out at physical therapy (in the 9" x 24" size). It can be placed in the freezer for cold use; it stays flexible, unlike many of the smaller square cooling products that end up like an ice cube brick (those are best used for keeping food cold in styrofoam containers). The elasto-gel attaches (for me at the knees) with velcro straps (while you are lying down, you can't conveniently walk around with it on your knee). At physical therapy, they put a triangular pillow (at home a regular one will do fine) for added comfort.
I bought two of these (one for each knee). I also tried the product in its warm configuration (sticking it in the microwave) with the thought I would use it on my back--it was like handling spaghetti--not helpful--you might as well use a heating pad for warmth even though those darned things mean an electrical plug limits placement. Save the elastro-gel for cooling. If someone has a suggestion for warm use that's easier than my effort, please advise in a comment.
Overall: if you have chondromalacea of the knees, knee sprain, or you just worked out really hard, then this is an excellent product for relieving pain with a cold compress that is clean, easy to use and encapsulated so that melting is not an issue. Read the instructions, however; don't wash or wet the exterior. At physical therapy, they place a white cotton cloth around the knee for sanitary purposes, as they are re-using the item from patient to patient. If your doctor prescribes RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation) for an injury, this is the way to go.
Notice that this item comes in several sizes and configurations, so order to suit your needs. I got the rectangle that duplicated what was used at PT, but your needs may be different.
UPDATE: In a recent fall over contractor material, I injured both my knee and hip; 24" will cover the entire length with cold to reduce swelling. Remember RICE to reduce swelling: REST, ICE, COMPRESSION (bandage or compression hose), ELEVATION.
