Ice Bandage

What is Ice Bandage?

• Use to cool and help cure injuries; reduces swelling & relieves pain
• Use on muscle strains, sprains, bruises, swellings, contusions
• Where the bandage is applied, the temperature can drop between 7 -10°C
• No need for refrigeration
• Reaches a constant, ideal cooling temperature within a few minutes
• Can go in a sports bag or first-aid kit
• Small and ready to use in an emergency
• The 3 metre bandage is ideal for treating ankles, wrists, elbows, hand and heads
• Stays cool for 2 hours, much longer than ice packs, gels & sprays
• Pain relief with no banned substances
• Clinically proven that ice speeds up the healing process for sprains, strains, shin splints and other minor injuries. (iceright.com/clinical_studies.php)

How Ice Bandage works

Cooling – The Ice Bandage cooling effect results in a narrowing of blood vessels (Vasoconstriction), restricting blood flow through the specific area and reducing swelling and bleeding. The effect also cools and stabilizes collagen, the protein that forms joints in the body.

Compression – A constant and equal pressure is applied to the injury. The result is that blood is prevented from gathering and the effect is that the swelling is decreased. Immediate compression helps to bring the injury swelling down and the cooling relief speeds up the healing process.

Apply Ice Bandage whenever you have an injury that needs cooling

How to apply Ice Bandage:
