Learn More About Cold Therapy

  • Cold therapy involves applying cold temperatures to an injured area to reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation. It works by constricting blood vessels, which reduces blood flow to the area and slows down the inflammatory response.

  • Cold therapy can provide several benefits, including:

    • Pain relief: Cold can numb nerve endings and reduce pain signals.
    • Reduced inflammation: By constricting blood vessels, cold therapy can limit the amount of fluid that leaks into tissues, reducing swelling.
    • Decreased muscle spasms: Cold can help relax muscles and reduce spasms.
    • Faster recovery: Cold therapy can help reduce pain and inflammation after exercise or injury, potentially speeding up recovery.
  • Cold therapy is commonly used for:

    • Sprains and strains
    • Muscle soreness  
    • Arthritis  
    • Tendonitis  
    • Bursitis  
    • Minor burns
  • You can apply cold therapy several times a day for 15-20 minutes at a time, but always allow at least 1-2 hours between applications to allow the tissues to return to their normal temperature.

    Prior to using cold therapy, consult with your medical provider to ensure it's safe for you.

  • Avoid cold therapy if you have:

    • Raynaud's phenomenon: A condition that causes blood vessels in the fingers and toes to overreact to cold.  
    • Cold hypersensitivity: An allergy to cold.  
    • Nerve damage: Cold can further damage nerves.  
    • Poor circulation: Cold can further reduce blood flow to the area.  
    • Open wounds: Cold can slow down wound healing.

    Consult with your doctor prior to beginning cold therapy.

Great for chronic neck issue

I found the neck gel cold pack with straps on Amazon but decided to order directly from the company and it was less expensive and got here in about two days. The cold pack is a good design for my neck pain and my skin is super sensitive to cold so I keep it in the fridge which ends up being the perfect temperature. I think it’s an excellent product as well as great customer service.

It's not as flexible as I would have liked. It's pretty stiff, so not really good if I'm lying down. If I lay it on my neck and shoulders and put a shirt on top of it, I found it did stay in place (with the short strap across the front) and I was able to ice while working at my desk - a real advantage.

Best ice pack ever

I use the over sized ice pack for my back and the regular size as well. I LOVE them! I am now ordering the neck ice pack due to several herniated disc in my neck. Also I am ordering my sister a couple due to her fracturing her back. Thank you Natra Cure!
