“My daughter has messed up her shoulder (she is a competitive athlete) and I have a shoulder that hurts due to a car accident years ago. We have tried a lot of different shoulder braces and ice packs, and this is the best of both world.This is made of a stretchy supportive fabric. I find it more than a little tight but I am a 5' 11" female with broad shoulders. Just the same, the support feels better and the all around compression is exactly what I need. My teenage daughter LOVES this and says it's the best she has used. Since it is one piece she doesn't have to fiddle with the straps and gets more complete support.This is designed to be heated or frozen, but lately we've had a lot of gel packs that we find have holes when heated so we only use these for cold therapy. This doesn't feel like the typical gel pack that the goo shifts around, it's more like a thick foam with gel feel to it maybe . . . it stays in place. This comes with a plastic bag to keep smells off the pack, and can be put in the fridge for a gentle cold or freezer for more lasting power and strength.Fantastic and will be getting more.”
“This is a great solution to ice up my bad shoulder. Couple hours in the freezer gives you 20 or so I've cold minutes. My sore shoulder feels significantly better using this post workout. You can use on either shoulder. Most men should be comfortable in a large. Recommend.”
“I like to ice down my entire spinal area and surrounding muscles but most ice packs aren't large enough. I also like to ice down my entire lower back into my glutes.This ice pack not only has good size but it has an insulation layer so it isn't "instant cold" (think old school blue gel packs you had to wrap yourself to prevent ice burns) against your skin. The cold slowly works in reaching peak coldness over time in the best way.5/5”
“I love the material of this ice pack. The size is more versatile than you would think(with the straps they include)I can lay flat on it for mid back relief. Or if I want to be up, just wrap it mostly around my torso with the straps for freedom of movement I can do that to. I can use the straps and lay it on my shoulders and form around the back of my neck and secure it so it stays thereThe gel doesn't move around at all like with traditional ice packs so the coldness is distributed very evenly which I really like.It's big, but it rolls up nice and tight for my freezer.”
“I have been using ice packs as part of my pain management regimen for the last 17 years. I've tried many brands and styles. This is my absolute favorite. It stays cold for a full 20-minute session but is not overly cold at the beginning which I really appreciate.What makes this ice pack so unique is the uniform coverage it gives. Very soft and flexible, so when I'm sitting with it on my back and neck area, the entire rectangle evenly touches and cools where I've placed it. Also really great for wrapping around any area of legs or arms because it's so pliable.Another plus is how slimline it is. It doesn't take up as much space in my freezer as similarly sized packs I have. That's important to me as my freezer space is limited.There's no odor and there's no liquid gel to leak out. I've have had that happen more than once with other styles/brands. The ComfiTECH gel is more of a 'solid' that holds it shape but is super flexible.I truly could not be happier with the comfort and functionality of this cold compression gel pack.”
“ComfiTECH Extra Large Ice Pack for Back Reusable Cold Compress Gel PackMy doctor recommends cold therapy and not heat so I have always been amazed at how heating pads are such a big thing while anything for cold therapy is not always available. I ordered the ComfiTech ice pack as soon as I saw that it was a giant ice pack for the back (or other areas). It is a big square gel pack that comes with a couple of straps. I have only used it for my back. I haven't even used the straps because they don't work that well for the back like it is shown in the online pics. You don't really need the straps for the back anyway.⛵⚓Seas the Day⚓⛵”
“I was skeptical about this product and was convinced it would make no real difference. I work out with weights and as I get older my shoulder can really be in some pain after a work out.This is very easy to use - just out it in the freezer. After a work out I put it on - it very easy to put on and comfortable....and it really helped the shoulder.This can be used on either shoulder with ease.Highly recommended.”
