This made icing my fractured heel easier than trying to fit rectangular or square packs around my foot. I did have to experiment with what was a suitable liner.

I had surgery on a broken ankle with incisions on both sides of my ankle. This device makes it much easier and is more effective in helping with my swelling. I love it.

This item is a really great ice pack for the right shoulder. I just needed it for my left shoulder.

This has been a life saver for me after getting a horrible, sprained ankle! So much better snd comfortable than using an ice pack. I highly recommend!!

I severely injured my ankle decades ago when I was a kid and tore the ligaments. It was never the same and has been reinjured at least 2 times a year, usually minor, but sometimes severe.In 2011, began wearing a compression sleeve to keep swelling down and minimize pain, but my ankle hurt every step, in 2017, had a bad sprain and MRI showed the ankle needed surgical intervention.The procedure and recovery would take many months, so I've been delaying it as long as possible, wearing a brace as well as the compression sleeve and taking supplements that may or may not help.The NatraCure has provided significant relief from pain, swelling and hopefully may help with recovery. I've only used the icing feature and keep the device on my ankle for 30 minutes in the morning and evening. The hot / cold pack is still very cold when I remove it.The device uses a wide velcro strap to stay in place and, (when properly placed), can be inflated to provide a LOT of compression and completely ice the ankle and about 1/2 of your foot.Very surprised at how effective this device is, I didn't expect that, this is one of those things that actually works.

Very effective!

I sprang my ankle for the first time and this has been aa real blessing, im sure my faster recovery is partly because of this product plus the sellers wrote me a wonderful email saying if anything was not right they would right it. so customer service is A+ .....

I had a severe break in my foot. When I got to the point in recovery that I could begin walking again, this product was an amazing help! Having a simple product that had the same or similar function of the cold compression machines used by physical therapy was beyond wonderful. I have recommended this product many times since purchasing.

This product works great. I love the compression aspect as well. You will need to ensure you wear a sock or wrap around your ankle before putting your foot in. The ice pack is very cold and is attached with hook and loop at the bottom. The ice pack does not fit into a lined pocket to protect your skin. This is the only reason I give 4 stars.

This is my first and only ever Amazon review and I'm only doing it because I absolutely love this product. I am recovering from a foot and ankle surgery and was struggling to find a good ice pack to fit my needs. This was able to ice both the side of my foot (where I broke it) and my ankle ligaments (that I tore) at the same time. The compression element was also great to help with swelling. I would purchase this a million times over if I could.

As with other inflatable ice packs, this one is flimsy. The nozzle broke after one use and it doesn’t inflate anymore, which renders it useless.

easy to use

I walk 15,000 to 20,000+ steps a day at work. My left foot was injured many years ago and I have arthritis in my foot joints. My foot can be quite sore at the end of the day. I use this compression support with the cold pack usually along with a CBD cream as therapy for the pain. This procedure really does the trick for me, and I'm ready to get back on my feet the next day.

Barely works

I really like the hot/cold knee compress these guys make, but this ankle one kinda sucks.It is terribly unergonomic. Granted, my knee is also destroyed, so I can't bend it to make putting the ankle compress on more easily, but the way you have to wrap the strap makes it incredibly difficult to put on.Even when on securely, it feels loose and like it's squirting out of the brace when you inflate it. It also only covers the back and sides of your ankle, so no love for the top of your foot at all.The heating/cooling works great, though.I would have been better off just getting a generic hot/cold pad that I could wrap around my foot. The shape of this thing makes it so it can't be inverted to put on the top of your ankle or repurposed for anywhere else on your body.I would purchase something else if I were doing it again.

Works great

I bought this after spraining my ankle and it really helps! after using it for a few days my ankle is much less swollen!

The NatraCure Hot/Cold & Air Compression Ankle Brace has helped immensely with stabilizing a rolled ankle sprain and enabling comfortable rest. Great product! Thank you.

Easy to use. Very effective. I keep it in the freezer and use it every day and night. I live the pump feature.

I am very pleased with this product. Helps my husband during recovery from bone fracture after cast cut.

Works well and added the compression I needed. Wish that there was more overlap. Easy to keep stored in the freezer.

We love this! Bought it for daughter's sprained ankle. It helps reduce the swelling from the cold ice pack and the compression. The ice pack is still malliable even frozen which is an added bonus .

Reduce swelling quickly. keep in mind this product is not a boot you can't walk on it.

Extremely satisfied. Worth getting

Wish I would have had this product 10 years ago. I have had half a dozen ankle surgeries over the years and have found that cold works best for me for relief of swelling and pain. I have in the past used cold packs wrapped with elastic tape. This worked fairly well except it only cooled one part of my ankle. This product wraps around my entire ankle and when using the air compression I can have cold on my entire ankle. I would assume it works as well for heat but I haven’t used it that way.When using this product with cold make sure you have heavy socks or a wash cloth or towel wrapped around your ankle and don’t use it more than the prescribed 20 minutes. I use heavy cotton socks.

Works great. I had foot surgery last year on the inside of my foot near the heel and this fits perfectly over that area and adds compression. This is the only one I've found that keeps the ice exactly where I need it.

Very well made! I purchased this for my 10 year old with a severe sprained ankle. He says it is the best ice pack, and with the pumping action, it provides the most relief. Would definitely buy again!

Easy to use, easy to put on by yourself, secure, cold or hot. Pump adds easy to control pressure for extra relief. Very satisfied!

Great design, just what I needed.👍

Very helpful for icing my ankle. I used it post-surgery and started using it once I scars healed and started doing Physical Therapy. The compression mechanism was great and was the closest thing I could find to the GAME READY device used by my PT. Cuff could have been slightly higher over the ankle or longer over the toe area since my swelling was quite extensive, but an extra ice pack was all that was needed.
