The Perfect Remedy 2-pack provides a straightforward and dependable option for localized cold therapy. Each pack is sized at 25cm x 12cm, a standard dimension that works well for the forearm, shins, or neck. The gel is a mixture of cellulose and glycerol, which helps it maintain a "slushy" consistency rather than freezing solid, ensuring it can mold comfortably to your body.
This set includes a protective cloth sleeve, which is a practical addition for managing skin sensitivity and condensation. The outer casing is made from a nylon-PVC laminate that is high-frequency welded at the seams to resist leaking under moderate pressure. These packs are suitable for both freezer storage and brief microwave heating, provided the 10-second increment rule is followed to protect the material bonds.
Maintenance and Use:
- Always use the provided sleeve to prevent direct skin contact and manage moisture.
- Follow precise heating instructions to avoid creating hot spots that could compromise the seal.
- Store in a standard freezer for at least two hours for a full thermal recharge.
Tests indicate that these packs provide a steady cooling effect for the standard 20-minute therapeutic window. The inclusion of two units allows one to be chilling while the other is in use, which is helpful during the first 48 hours of managing a minor injury.
