4.0 out of 5 stars Would like it a little smaller, June 27, 2007

By	Dye "sciencebabe" (Northern California) - See all my reviews

I'm 5'5" weighing 160lbs - not a small woman, but I find this wrap to be too large. I can't get it to fit well in the area I need it to be snug. The arm portion sits almost to my elbow. I use the previous reviewer's advice about putting extra gel packs inside of it and that's working to put the cold where I need it (snugs it up in a sense).
Since first writing this I tried to contact this company to inquire about getting a smaller size (I noticed that the company that makes this product does make a smaller size), but this seller never replied to my inquiry. So, I went looking elsewhere on the web and found that a company called painrelieverdotcom does carry the small/medium size. It is working much better than this large one available here. I highly recommend it if you're an average to small size woman - as I said, the "large" size is too big to fit snugly enough to apply the cold directly enough to be effective.
I really like the concept, and using it is allowing me to move around and work on my computer while I do my post-exercising icing.
Over-all, it's better than conventional ice packs that require you to sit motionless for the duration of each icing session.

1.0 out of 5 stars very disappointed, July 17, 2008

Elasto-Gel Hot/Cold Shoulder Wrap

If your shoulder is not that sore and/or you have someone to help you get this thing on, it would be good.
The problem is the covering is not attached to the gel. So attempting to put this by myself was tortuous and painful...the gel falls down inside the covering and there was no way for me to get it back in position, no matter hard I tried.
As far as the distributor goes, HPMS-The Therapy Connection, the service was very good. They responded to my email inquiry very quickly, but also said they could not take it back if it was used. Of course I attempted to use it! Why would I be rejecting? because of the...the color!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful product and service, May 14, 2007

By	Paul Gardner (South Pasadena, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This sleeve is the best product I've used for my injury, and I've been through a lot, looking for something that works right. It has excellent coverage of not only my shoulder joint, but the upper arm and a portion of my back and chest. It stays in place with two straps, so I can move around the house without fear of it falling off. Plus, I can extend the freeze time as needed by stuffing thin frozen gel packs beneath the sleeve, and swap them out as needed, though 60 minutes is about my limit.Plus, I've got to say that this company has an excellent customer service department that can resolve problems with ease and respect. It was a pleasure dealing with Cindy to resolve a problem I was having using the sleeve for heat therapy too.
