XL Shoulder Ice Pack Rotator Cuff Cold Therapy, Reusable Gel Ice Pack for Shoulder Injuries, Shoulder Ice Pack Wrap for Pain Relief, Swelling, Shoulders Surgery, Tendonitis, Bursitis, Black

This doesn’t have a removable ice pack, it’s integrated into the unit. Tons of cold surface area, and it’s highly adjustable. The area that touches your shirt/skin is soft like velour. The directions say to freeze in the included bag, which is did. If you don’t use for 72 hours, remove from the freezer to extend the units life., which I plan to. Overall, an awesome unit which has greatly helped with my shoulder surgery recovery. Only downside is that it takes a while to freeze. I mention this because if you are 30 minutes on/off, it won’t have enough time to freeze solidly. For a pickleball player to ice after a day of playing, perfect use.

I purchased this for a family member's rotator cuff repair surgery, not knowing if this was a good idea, but I wanted him to have ice on hand for recovery and swelling. This is currently being used by a young person in his early twenties who needs it for post op recovery. He states that: It freezes in a reasonable time and gives the perfect amount of coldness, not TOO cold that it is uncomfortable and not warm at all. I secures very well with assistance and stays in place. It has good weight to it without it being too heavy for a sensitive post op shoulder. It does not drip, so that the surgical site stays dry. Definitely feels very therapeutic. Highly recommended!

I got a medium. I’m a medium build woman (size 12) and it fits just right. I have a shoulder impingement and the pain shoots down my arm, up into my neck, and all around my shoulder blade. This covers all those areas. This cold pack feels great! I have one complaint. This thing is pretty much impossible to put on by yourself. The pack itself is frozen so it’s not very pliable. You have to try to adjust the Velcro straps (it’s strong Velcro) while keeping the pack in place and stretching the straps (that aren’t very long to begin with), all while you have one arm that lacks normal mobility. If it wasn’t for my husband who puts it on me, I seriously doubt I’d ever have it on other than to drape it over me. You could maybe get the straps set and slide into it but there’s still the issue of shoulder and arm mobility. If I could put it on with ease by myself I’d give it a 5. Gave it a 4 because it fits well, has a big coverage area, and gets rid of my pain.

I must admit, prior to trying this shoulder pad I was kind of skeptical as to what I'm used to but after using it a couple of times, it's pretty good value for the price paid. I am quite pleased at both the performance and effectiveness. I have had multiple shoulder repairs done anr gine to countless physical therapies. I first put the ice pack into the deep freeze for 12 hours, pulled it out, used it and put it back in the freezer again for 6 hours and used it again i only that wish had purchased 2. Great results both times. And just incase anyone is curious, I'm not being compensated for what I'm telling you.

It works well. It covers the area well for a rotator cuff injury. It's pliable ONLY if you put in the freezer less 3-4 hours before you want to use it. The instructions that come with the pack say not to leave it in the freezer. I did, because I have other gel packs that I leave in the freezer all the time. It was hard and not easily pliable. I don't love having to think about using it 3-4 hours before I need to use it. It's not convenient when I'm not home all day, and I want to use it when I get home.

It says this will last for 30 minutes cold, however it actually lasted a solid hour, and by that time, I was ready to take it off anyway!! I am waiting for shoulder surgery and on long days when I use my arm a lot, this thing is a life saver. I was also worried it wasn't going to fit well, as I am a plus sized pregnant lady (2x), but it fit great! It was a little awkward and confusing figuring out how to wear it the first time, but I got it lol. The only thing I wish were better, would be that the upper part doesn't stay close to your skin well. My injuries are front, back, and on top tears, and it feels like the top one, which happens to be one of the more painful ones, doesn't quite get that cold like the rest of it. If you have a bicep problem, though, this will be your best friend lol. I still love it and am thankful I got it!! It is heavy and does take up a lot of space in the freezer. So be prepared for that.

Was what the doctor wanted me to get. Must say it was easy to use and fit to shoulder.

This product delivered as described. I used in recovery from rotator cuff surgery. Kept in freezer and used when shoulder twingy painful or achy. I appreciated the smooth vinyl and flocked sides difference, which worked either way, directly against the skin (flocking) or atop a shirt (plain side), without irritating the skin and getting a relevant cooling action. I found the arm strap a bit bothersome at times. It could be fussy putting on with one hand, enough so that early in recovery, I often left it off rather than fuss with it. I have no certain suggestion for different configuration that might work better. If you have someone on hand to help, no problem. This definitely offered both therapeutic and comfort pluses to my surgery recovery (icing quelled inflammation and eased hurt feelings). I am a tall and broad shouldered guy, this pack fit fine. Also note, I had two of these, different brands; this was the better quality one.
