Description
Black Ice is not a water-based ice or gel. It is a non-toxic, molecular alloy chemical specially blended to freeze in the temperature range perfect for inflammation reduction and pain management - 52 degrees F. Black Ice also maintains its heat-absorbing output level for up to an hour, depending upon factors such as body size, level of activity and ambient temperature..Black Ice Cooling packs are cool, but not too cold, so they can be applied directly to the skin, eliminating the worry of frostbite or dripping on the user. Cooling Packs can be re-chilled in ice water in only 1 hour, 1.5 hours in a freezer, or 4 hours in a refrigerator..Cooling packs do not have to be removed on a timed basis. Simply keep some packs on while the other packs are re-chilling, and swap as needed for continual cooling. This is a big advantage over ice-based products, which can only be worn typically for 15-20 minutes at a time. By swapping packs continually, the user enjoys uninterrupted pain management and inflammation reduction which increases comfort and speeds healing time..Latex-free elastic wrap has hook and loop fabric which allows the placing of the cooling packs on the user in the most convenient manner, and to target the relief exactly where needed. Compression is also an important part of the healing process and the elastic wrap enables the user to achieve the ideal level of compression the user desires..Available in 4 sizes and 2 pack configurations. Small and Medium wraps are available in 2 or 4 cooling pack arrangements and Large and Extra Large wraps are available in 4 or 8 pack arrangements..Product consists of one elastic wrap which is latex-free and hook-and-loop compatible, cooling packs with hook-and-Loop dots on the reverse side, and instructions.Many users have found relief for a wide variety of pains and injuries using Black Ice, such as muscle strains and pulls, carpal tunnel, ankle sprains, joint pain from arthritis, and various forms of myalgia and neuralgia. Results may vary depending upon many medical factors..To use, simply unroll the wrap and place a chilled pack against the skin at the target location, with the red dots facing away from the skin. Secure the pack with the elastic wrap by starting at the end opposite of the Black Ice logo, and placing the wrap on the pack and holding it with your hand. Then place each additional chilled pack in position as you gradually secure them by wrapping around the injured body part..After the first use, packs can be left secured to the wrap and the entire wrap/pack combo can be placed in a plastic bag in the refrigerator or freezer, for easier followup use..Store Black Ice cooling packs year-round in the refrigerator or freezer, so they will always be ready the moment you need them. Clean your cooling packs after each use by washing them with a grease-cutting dishwashing liquid. Towel or air dry. Hand or machine wash all wraps in cold water. Air dry—Do not place in a dryer. Packs are for cooling only. Do not place packs in a microwave.
