Arctic Flex Shoulder Ice Pack Brace - Cold Reusable Cool Gel Wrap, Hot Therapy - Immobilizer Compression Stability Support for Tendonitis, Dislocated Joint, Left and Right Rotator Cuff Arm Pain Relief

Cold compresses a MUST with my painful Torn rotator cuff muscle; thank goodness after 3 different types that were cheap but pricey, couldn’t get them on one armed and very stiff or scratchy part that goes in freezer , THIS IS A FIVE STAR WINNER! Easy to adjust , EXTREMELY WELL MADE , high quality and I can have the sleeve on and buckled and walk around or lie down to get my inflammation down with icing. I’m petite. - and I love the weight, comfortable and sturdiness! QUALITY COUNTS! . It sinks right into the shoulder and follows shoulder anatomy. Can fit big male just as well. Practically, goes in easily and amazing quality! Medical equipment/ medical needs durability.

Excellent product. Well made. Fits larger bodies quite well. I suffer from frozen shoulder. This offers great support and immediate relief from much of my pain even before utilizing the cold pack. The stress on my neck and shoulder from holding my arm in a certain position has been relieved by wearing this, as well. This will fit massive arms and super broad chests. Great for bulked up body builders or super curvy plus-size gals, like me.

Works good. Just a little uncomfortable.

This is one of my top 5 best Amazon purchases and that says a lot if you saw my history. It fits a 6ft 200 lb male perfectly. It has lots of adjustments for other sizes and body types. Very comfortable and stylish. The ice pack can get very cold quickly so I add a wash cloth between it and my arm to keep it tolerable. For the price it is an amazing deal and feel like this thing will last for decades. Be sure to try all the places it can be expanded or contacted to see what is most comfortable.

I bought this after a rotator cuff injury, hoping it would act as a brace. It does not act as an immobilizer at all because it doesn’t restrict arm movement, but it does keep the heat/ice pack in place. The ice/heat pack is removable to store in the freezer or heat up in the microwave - just never heat it directly after removing it from the freezer or they say it will be damaged and no longer leak proof. If using it for heat keep it stored at room temperature and use 30 second increments in the microwave till it’s as hot as you need. I already have a similarly sized cold gel pack that will fit in the “pocket” of this, so I am able to have both heat & cold available at all times though I find heat works better for me than cold as pain relief for muscles & tendons etc other than immediately after an injury. There is an extension strip with hook & loop style fastening included so it will fit a wide variety of differently sized/shaped people but being female, just like with car seat belts that are designed for men, it is a bit awkward to secure it well AND comfortably. The listing says it can be used under clothing (though unless you wear a very loose and dark colored shirt/top it will be obvious) or on top of it. The ice/heat pack itself is a bit more of a “T” shape than just the usual rectangle (see the picture) so it will work better and drape a bit when applied to the shoulder area. It is almost 10 inches tall, with the top being 9 inches wide and the bottom 7 inches wide. The ice/heat pack fits inside the strapping pocket between an inner layer of soft nylon/polyester (mine was not mesh it was solid fabric) that helps protect your skin from possible burns or frost damage, and the outer neoprene layer. The shoulder “pocket” that holds the ice/heat gel pack is curved to fit a shoulder. It is roughly 11 inches top to bottom, and will fit any arm width between 11 inches, and using the extension strap fits up to 25-26 inches. The length over the injured shoulder to under the other arm wrapping can be small enough to fit a child - it’s 14.5 inches between the two plastic buckle mechanisms to hold the chest strap, and all the way up to 57 inches if you use the arm extension strip. The description says there are two extension straps, but other than the removable but required chest strap itself there was only one actual extension strap in the box I received. There is also a “Y” shaped adapter strap attached so you can shorten the “height” of the treated area, though that bunches up the ice/heat pack which doesn’t seem as effective nor as comfortable. It took me some practice and getting used to, in order to fix it in place without help from someone else, but it's worth it to be able to continue with most aspects of daily living while having a heat therapy. (In fact I’m wearing it while typing this review.) It isn't as effective or as long lasting as those at my physical therapists office, but it's also no where near as expensive as theirs to purchase and can be used at a moments notice 24/7 instead of having to wait for the next appointment.

This thing has been a lifesaver for me while my shoulder/neck has been acting up. Fits great and with plenty of room and I’m in a large body. So appreciative that this allowed me to keep showing up for work with the ice therapy I needed.

Although I don't agree that it can be put on easily with just one hand. I did find that it helped my sore shoulder very much.

UPDATE: I've used this product now for a while and I find it helps my upper arm and shoulder immensely. It stays cold enough that you're not over doing the cold therapy. So that's a good thing if you fall asleep with it on you're not overdoing the chill. END OF UPDATE/I have some kind of tendonitis, bursitis or 9something in the upper outside portion of my arm that is extremely painful. It's also mostly immobile. This is a one size fits all item. A little confusing on how to get the whole thing situated. Turns out that it really wasn't that difficult, the confusing came on my part. The ice pack that comes with it gets really cold, and it will give your shoulder and upper arm a good chill. I've only ice packed it once, there is a little bit ease of pain. Then again I really don't use it much these days. I'm also using it as a support because I just had knee replacement surgery and I'm sleeping in a recliner. One night the pain woke me up because my shoulder had dropped to the side. I'm hoping that the more I treat it with the ice pack the better it'll get. I'll update as I use it.

Das Anpassen dieser Orthese funktionierte bei meinem Körperbau überhaupt nicht, ich bin zu schlank. Es stehen Teile vor, Bewegungsumfang unangenehm eingeschränkt, für mich unbrauchbar trotz verstellbarer Klettverschlüsse,

So easy to use ! Came the next day and perfect for hot:cold injury therapy 👍

Not something I would wear at the gym or out and about as it’s a bit balky but more at home when I’m sore before bed for some pain relief sure

Glad to pay a bit more than the other products available as it's a really comfortable fit. Well designed and perfect adjustment areas to fit snug over the shoulder

I wanted a brace and this was the only one that would fit me as I’m 54 inches chest 3xl. This brace has an extenuation strap.I did not need the ice pack but having it included is a added bonus. The ice pack is very high quality and stays cold longer than i think it should. The brace works very well and is made well i have been warning the brace for 3 days and it is really starting to make a difference especially with the pain. I recommend this product because I’m a very large man and it works and has not broken and is easy to fit and ware. I have only had to play with the adjusting straps 3 Times to find that sweet spot.
