Gel Packs Direct - 3-in-1 Multipurpose Reusable Hot & Cold Flexible Ankle Ice Packs for Sports Injuries, Sprains, Fractures, Arthritis, Tendonitis & Pain Relief. Durable & Leak-Proof Ankle Ice Pack.

Purchased the gel pack to help relieve pain from an ankle injury picked up as a result of marathon training and football & have to say so far I’m really pleased. After being on my feet all day nice to have the choice for first ice to help take the swelling down then heat to help relieve the pain. The strap to help secure the pack is really useful. Highly recommended if you’re looking for something similar

Bought for my wife, who has achilles tendinitis in her ankles. Bought the double pack. Its a gel system. But still flexible, after freezing, so moulds around the required area. Can be used as cold, hot or just compression. Been using 3 days, and has relieved the symptoms already. Comes with a pouch for the pack and velcro strap. She is more than happy with the product, and its results todate.

Knee gel pack satisfactory and strap good fit, easy to put on. Disappointed with size ankle gel pack. Had expected a narrower fit icepack for ankle, instead of which it's exactly the same as knee one. Misleadingwebsite information - actually labelled and sold as ankle wrap, but identical to knee wrap so just one size for both ankle and knee, would be helpful to label as such. Otherwise all good and straps are strong and easy to use.

I bought this to help my recovery from a broken ankle. Its excellent. There is a Velcro fastener and you can adjust the fitting so that it fits perfectly to your limb. Ice packs or alternate hot cold compressions are often recommended for injuries , especially sports injuries however, anyone that has attempted to hold a pack of frozen peas on a swollen ankle will know that its is difficult frustratingly difficult to keep in place. This is easily adjustable and can be kept in place with the Velcro fastener. I have now lost this item to my sporty son who seems to get frequent injures. To use a hot compress the instructions are to heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, not sure if it is my microwave or not but I find I need to heat for 1 minute, however this does not detract from the effectiveness of this item. To use as cold compress , just pop into the freezer. My only recommendation would be that this item is supplied with a spare gel pack to allow easy use of cold/hot treatments.

I have this ankle you see. Its been diagnosed as a torn ligament and a lump the size of a walnut has sprung up on my ankle bone, God knows how it happened, it was just there one day and hurting like hell when i walked. (it was the peroneal brevis if that means anything to anyone other than a doctor). RICE I was told. Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevate. Rest wasnt a problem, thats practically all I do. Elevation? Feet up? Again I already do a lot of that. So Ice ice...? I know, a bag of frozen peas, or two bags to be on the safe side. Id heard about other people using this, I was well read, I knew things.... After about 4 days of tring to balance a bag of peas of the side of my foot by twisting it round and sitting in a weird position and the bag falling off and slipping around I thouhgt "I cant be the only person with this problem, Ill go on t'internet and see whats what. And this is what I found. If I could have invented something to apply ice to my ankle in that particular spot, this would have been it. Its perfect for the job whilst still retaining flexibility for other parts of the body. Sorry to say my problem has not gone away and Im off tomorrow for a cortisone injection. Lifes a bitch but its better with the help of littel things like this.

I ordered this product to see if it could help with residual ankle swelling following an operation and it has been very effective. The gel pack is well made and, after reading other reviews, I tried putting it in the fridge rather than the freezer. This was a gamechanger as I can tolerate the cooling action to reduce swelling for much longer! The gel pack goes into a pouch of soft material, with the stretchy binding attached to the end, with a velcro fastening. This means that the gel pack can be attached securely to any part of the foot and, in my case, be comfortably secured to the ankle. Recommended.

Love the wrap - has a lot of length to it so even people with larger ankles can use it. The only reason I bumped down the rating is it doesn’t stay cold for longer than 15-20mins which is a shame.

This freezes well and is then flexible enough to wrap around the ankle as shown in the illustration. The wide band of elastic means it can really be wrapped, and pulled as tight as necessary. It proved to be extremely useful for me. It’s still in the freezer a year later, and gets used from time to time, especially in hot weather. The fabric is soft and comfortable.

Lo compré porque mi hija que está en edad de crecimiento tenía dolores en varias partes del cuerpo. Es muy cómodo de utilizar, se adapta muy bien a cualquier parte del cuerpo, tobillo, rodilla, pantorrilla. El paquete que lleva para calentar o enfriar también es muy fácil de usar. Mi hija está muy contenta.

È il secondo che acquisto, ottimo prodotto versatile, efficace, resistente ed economico. Ho problemi ai tendini che spesso s'infiammano nell'attività sportiva e attualmente sto lottando contro una infiammazione al tendine d'Achille e una al gomito (epicondilite) ...entrambi posti difficili da gestire per gli impacchi di ghiaccio. Ovviamente bisogna usare il prodotto ascoltando i consigli di fisiatri e terapisti: l'applicazione del ghiaccio non deve superare i 10-15 min e se se ne fanno più d'una deve esserci altrettanto tempo d'intervallo, il ghiaccio non va messo a contatto con la pelle. Personalmente alla prima applicazione quando il freddo è più intenso metto la tasca al contrario(il lato in pile blu verso la parte dolorante) e con un piccolo asciugamano o abito che separi dalla pelle; nelle successive applicazioni man mano che diventa meno freddo appoggio il lato nero traforato ma conservo l'indumento per non avere il contatto diretto che è deleterio...immagino che lo stesso valga anche per le applicazioni a caldo! Le foto di questi prodotti in generale sono ingannevoli perché mostrano spesso il sacchetto di GeL appoggiato direttamente sul corpo...hanno lo scopo di mostrare il prodotto e non il suo corretto utilizzo, l'unica pecca infatti sono istruzioni chiare ma si risolve riferendosi al personale specializzato (medico, fisiatra, fisioterapista). Infine ricordate che non è miracoloso e aiuta molto ma non è sufficiente da solo a curare il problema: aiuta molto ma va accompagnato con terapie ad hoc e riposo.

Après une opération, m’a cheville est toujours très gonflée, surtout le soir. Il suffit de laisser la poche de glace au congel , l’insérer dans la poche de la ceinture . Grâce à la sangle à Velcro, la poche de glace se positionne parfaitement sur l’endroit gonflé ou douloureux et reste parfaitement en place Je recommande vivement ce produit

Was hab ich mir zu Anfang bei meinem Bänderriss einen abgewürgt mit Kühlkissen, die nicht gehalten haben. Dann habe ich mir diesen Artikel gekauft und es war Ruhe. Das mitgelieferte Kühlpack ist klasse (auch aus der Kühltruhe, dann zieht man aber besser einen Socker drunter), und lässt sich in der Kletttasche fest verstauen, das flexible Band lässt sich auch über den dick geschwollenen Knöchel ziehen und mit seinem kräftigen Klettverschluss sicher befestigen. Mit 2-3 handelsüblichen Ersatzkühlpacks kann man problemlos mehrere Stunden durchgehend kühlen, mit Schlappen auch noch halbwegs im Haus rumgehen (was man natürlich nicht tun soll). Nach 6 Wochen wirklich intensiver Nutzung hat das Band an einem Rand leicht gefranst, was ich bei dem Preis aber völlig ok finde. Diese Bandage hat mich beim Heilungsprozess echt nach vorne gebracht.

El producto es justo lo que necesitaba para el tobillo. Muy fácil y cómodo de usar. La bolsa de gel tiene buena calidad, no sé si más adelante se estropeará, porque llevo poco usándola. De momento cumple su función perfectamente. Solo el velcro y la tira tiene pinta de que se irá despeluchando un poco, pero también es normal. La sujeción es estupenda. Muy contenta con el resultado.
