Gelpacks DirectReusable Knee Ice Pack Wrap for Sports Injuries & Knee Pain Relief (Pack of 2). 3-in-1 Hot and Cold Compress Knee Support for Arthritis, Replacement Surgery, Swelling & Joint Pain.

It is never easy to identify the correct injury product or know whether it will make a difference. I chose this particular product as it offers both Hot and Cold solutions.The quality and design are very good (have been using for two weeks). I am using this on a troublesome knee strain. By following the general injury instructions of three times a day cold and also hot the injury has improved significantly. The product works by coming in two parts. The gel pack is placed in the freezer or microwave for cold or hot. It is then slid into the wrap pocket and wrapped securely with the elasticated strap. The strap is secured with velcro.I use a support stocking underneath when using cold to give a little separation from the skin as the gel is very cold when frozen. The velcro strap is very secure and allows for flexible adjustment. I found the whole wrap very comfortable and easy to wear whilst going about my normal chores. I have also used hot and equally found the adjustment and comfort to be good.Overall a very good product and highly recommended - beats a bag of peas!!

Perfect especially if you've had total knee replacement......

Arrived quickly and well packaged. Gel pack well made cools within an hour but cooling effect only lasts about 10 minutes. May be worth buying two so that you can alternate them. I've used mine after having a knee replacement it wraps around my knee and the Velcro holds the gel pad in place this enables you to move your knee about whilst cooling it. Definitely easier than using ice

Needed some gel packs for a knee injury. Wrapping wine coolers or frozen pea packets round the knee just want cutting it.Ordered with 2 gel packs so one was always in the freezer. Good if you expect to use these for long periods of time as they do warm up after around 30m on the knee.A single pack only goes half way round my knee. So ice is really focussed on a specific area. I suspect they would more encircle a wrist.The strap and pouch for the ice pack is a great idea. It holds the pack snug against the skin with only a bit of material between the gel pack and skin. To be honest it's good to have something there to prevent burning the skin with the coldThe strap packs however aren't the best quality in the world. Some of the material pouch is coming away after 10 uses or so. But nothing that prevents ongoing usage. But the Velcro is strong meaning they do the job of wrapping the joint tight.So all in I would recommend these. They certainly helped elevate my injury with repeated use. Just be a little careful how you use the material pouch where the gel pack goes as it is a little fragile.

I ordered the twin pack of this product because my son suffered a discolated knee playing sport and lives away during the week, so I thought it would be useful to have one in both places. It is an excellent product and stays very cold for plenty long enough and has helped a lot to bring down the swelling. My husband uses the other one on his back and finds it very helpful. What makes it really effective is the Velcro strap keeping the cold pack close to the body and its flexibility to mould around the joint. I ordered this last weekend and I have been very pleased with it. So far we have only used it cold so can't comment on it when used to apply heat, but it is definitely so far so good and I would highly recommend this product. It more than met my expectations.

This is very easy to use, as most people have microwave ovens, pop it in and 30/20 second blast warms up. As per instruction you must give it a squeeze to distribute the internal gel then another short blast. I noticed that it may not feel that hot on your hand, but when on my knee it feels a lot hotter, thats not the gel pad that's our hands are more tolerant of heat. I tried to move around with it walking , works loose so chair and sofa for me works brill. I tended to use the heat beneficial to me. The pad can be frozen when it is frozen its not "solid" so can still wrap. I would recommend this product, also company sold it had a minor issue sorted straight away.

Used this for arthritis in knee. Took swelling down and pain definitely improved. Had to use over top of trousers as even in pouch it was too cold to stand! Will keep using it as when knee really bad it gives such quick relief. It stays in place fine whilst sitting but had a little trouble with it dropping down when moving around.

I am very happy with this product. The hot cold ice pack is well made and it stays cold for a long time. I really like the elastic compress wrap, it doesn't restricts movements or feel heavy on the knee, adjusting it is very easy and it stays in place. I also use it without the gel pack for compression as it is so comfortable and easy to use. Finally its use is not limited to the knee, I use it for my ankle and foot and I think it could easily be used on other bodyparts. Very good quality at a reasonable price. Well done!
