REVIX Shoulder Ice Pack for Rotator Cuff Cold Therapy Arm Gel Ice Pack for Injuries Reusable Flexible Cold

Fits well and stays cold for about 45 minutes Read more

Standard size great for petites. IWhile the fuzzy covering fabric is not as comfortable as some of today’s gel ice packs, it is not too bad. Soft flannel-like feel rather than rubbery plastic next to skin. Pretty good coverage on the shoulder. Covers the acromion (shoulder bone in ‘epaulet’ area) and drapes well over the upper arm. That fit (with funny-looking segmented cut of the pad) ensures that I get to ice the rotator cuff area pretty completely, while also icing the humerus head and soft tissue of upper arm. I would imagine that any big-boned female or average man would prefer the XL size currently on offer. Chills fast (mfr asks user to chill the apparatus inside a provided zip loc bag) and does the job. None of these shoulder chillers seems to be particularly good at solo donning (I do need help) so it pays to freeze it with Velcro straps deployed . Read more

I bought this for possible future surgery that I might get for a shoulder impingement and partial tear of my rotator cuff and mainly for after my second steriod shot to my shoulder. I get the "steriod flare" and it really hurts so bad I could barely move my arm for about 2-3 days. This helped and I like that it's made specifically for my shoulder area. It will come in handy after I get surgery, which I'm pretty sure will happen this year while I've been on Worker's Comp for my work injury. Before I bought this I was just using ice in a bag and that doesn't work great at all. I have to hold it for one and for two it got me all wet. I saw this and I thought it was great to ice the exact areas that I have pain and inflammation. It fits my body good, but a bit loose in one area which is not a big deal. This is great for anyone with shoulder injuries or after surgery/ recovery. I recommend this ice pack! Quality: Well made, great quality Value for money: Good price Read more

Worked well for keeping my shoulder area cool and helped a lot with reducing my pain from post-rotator cuff surgery. Easy to re-chill for re-use. I bought two of these so that I'd always have a cold one to use while the other was re-chilling in the freezer. A little awkward to put on myself without help, but I learned tricks to make that work for me in the middle of the night, such as leaning against the counter to hold a strap in place while I handled getting it on and ready to use. Despite this, it is a great item for riding in the car, or for sitting in a lounge chair, or for walking around--keeping my shoulder chilled. Read more

Too big and bulky. Read more

I ordered this for my husband after he had surgery on his rotator cuff and it has been a real lifesaver. Once I saw how nice it was made and how well it stayed in place with the adjustable straps, I decided to order a second one so that I could have a backup ready when the cold wore off. I wasn’t expecting such a nice product for such a low cost but I was pleasantly surprised. Not only that but I was label to get it delivered the same day which was a huge blessing. I would definitely recommend this product and this company. Follow the instructions and put the ice pack in the bag they provide for you (they provide it for a reason) otherwise it will get too stiff like ice. Yes, I tried ignoring the instructions on the 2nd one I ordered to save myself time and found out the hard way. It didn’t ruin it, I just had to let it thaw and put it in the bag and refreeze it. Learn from my mistakes, follow the instructions and you’ll love it! Read more

A pain saver after shoulder surgery. Easy to use. Read more

I’ve been using this every day/ night since my rotator cuff surgery. I also use it on my lower back. It’s thin enough to not cause pain while laying on it. One side is covered with soft fabric that softens the blow of the freezing cold on your skin. Other side isn’t covered so cold is more direct to skin, sometimes a little too much for me but doesn’t take long to relax into it. I’ll continue using this long after recovery. Don’t know how I would’ve survived without it! Read more
