As a preventive measure or for actual injury of the throwing athlete, the Elite-Kold Youth Athletic Shoulder Wrap by Elite Kold is the 'Gold Standard' due to it's design and effectiveness. Several studies have shown that Elite Kold products get the appropriate cold (just above freezing) to the treatment site, with no fear of frostbite or cold shock.
Many team physicians and athletic trainers use Elite*Kold model products on the sideline and in the training room.
Elite-Kold wraps provide up to 2 hours of cold treatment at a safe temperature. Two layers of "ice pillows" contain non-toxic, purified water as the freezing agent. When frozen the ice pillows remain flexible to ensure a comfortable fit and excellent application of cold to injury site. The outside velvet loop fabric allows desired compression and fit for all sizes.
