The Bottom Line

These are a great set of products that will absolutely help in injury recovery. All doctors teach R.I.C.E. and this is just the product that will add the Ice and the Compression right where you need it.

  • Re-usable, just throw it back in the freezer
  • No wet mess from ice melting or condensation
  • Two for one, compression and ice, for maximum injury treatment
  • Durable material will last
Cons
  • Price, but it will last

  • Work great with R.I.C.E. as a 2-in-1 tool to add compression and ice deep into the injury.
  • Design allows for wear over the skin without frost bite or over clothes without getting all wet.
  • Flexible design freezes solid but still maintains flexibility.
  • A little pricey but well worth it.
  • Very comfortable to wear.

Guide Review - Cold One Injury Wrap

I was a little skeptical because of the price. Ice compression products can be purchased at your local drug store. So, why would I want to spend the extra money on these compression products? Well, for one, they are a whole lot better than the ones you will find at the corner drug store. These cold compressions can be put right on the skin or worn over clothing. Either way, they are comfortable. They freeze but don't get hard like some cold compressions. With these, you don't have to deal with the mess from ice melting or the risk of frost bite thanks to a patented inner layer. If you are prone to injuries, or are coaching a team, you should have these wraps in your inventory.
