REVIX Shoulder Ice Pack for Rotator Cuff Cold Therapy, Arm Gel Ice Pack for Injuries Reusable, Flexible Cold Compression Wrap for Post-Workout Recovery, Fatigue and Shoulder Discomfort, Blue

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 .

This works very good for my shoulder pain

My shoulder was injured last year in September while at work after a patient pulled my arm causing a high grade rotator cuff tear and a small labrum tear. I don’t like taking medication for pain if I can avoid it at all cause. This ice pack helped so much with the pain and continues to do so now. I finally underwent surgery for my shoulder 2 weeks ago and this has been a huge help with my recovery process. The Velcro straps help the ice pack stay in place, especially while sleeping. I’m petite and this definitely fits comfortably and get good coverage area. I’m extremely happy I purchased this last year in September. It has been my best friend since and especially now post surgery.

A pain saver after shoulder surgery. Easy to use.

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!

A bit heavy and cumbersome to apply

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!

Was the lifesaver after shoulder surgery and after the insurance company took the ice machine away from me lol
