Hell-of-a product! MUST BUY! You will wonder why you thought you didn’t need it.
While planning for spinal fusion surgery, I started working out how I was going to manage every bit of my recovery without being a burden on my husband. One of the issues was ice packs at night. If I’m not mobile enough to get in and out of bed unaided, how will I be switching out ice packs every twenty minutes all night long? That’s too much of an ask of a spouse.My dental hygienist recommended the “Ice Machine” they’d used for her son after his shoulder surgery. It had been prescribed by their physician and supplied by the durable medical equipment team at their hospital. I asked my surgeon and was told they don’t supply them anymore. Though the hygienist offered to loan it to me, I don’t feel like I know her well enough to take her up on her offer. (It might have been one of those spontaneous offers that wasn’t actually an offer, you know what I mean?) So, I was really glad to find the Polar Active Ice system here on Amazon. Since I did not get a prescription for this kit, I wasn’t able to put it through insurance, but it’s not outrageously expensive, and it wasn’t a waste of money so I’m happy. This will not be one of those pieces of hardware you buy, use for a few weeks, and forget. Between my husband and I, we will use this again.The pre-surgery plan was that my husband would help me get positioned in bed with the cold pack on my surgical site, I’d set the timer for cold on/cold off durations, set the temperature from 1 (cold) – 4 (coldest), and we’d both sleep through the night.Post-surgery experience was more nuanced. The pad that comes with this back/hip kit has a long elastic attached and the idea is that you put the pad on the incision, wrap the elastic around the patient, and Velcro it in place. I think that configuration likely works well if the patient is mobile – which I was not early on — or is using it during the daytime — which was not. (I’m actually restricted from Bending, Lifting, Twisting, Pushing or Pulling for another month.) At first, we couldn’t figure out how to set it up so I could sleep with the pad comfortably because the pad is not giant and the fill-hose is well, right there (where the fill-hose belongs but kind of in the way).I ordered up the larger pad accessory. It’s a lot bigger than I mentally processed (it covers my entire torso laying down), but it swapped right in with this kit and worked very well early on after the operation when everything hurt and positioning myself exactly on the smaller back pad was very painful. When I started to feel a bit feverish, the larger pad helped bring my temperature down without taking more meds.Now that I’m more mobile, I have been able to switch back to the pad that came with this kit at night and that’s been working well. I lay the pad down on the bed and extend the strap up under my pillow. I figured out where to sit on the bed so I can log-roll right onto the pad and the weight of my body holds it in place. I’ve never tossed or turned much at night, so this works well for me.The pump is audible, but not loud — like white noise, unnoticeable and somewhat soothing while I’m slowing down for the night and sleeping.Recommendation to users is to put a towel between you and the pad so you don’t “burn” your skin and cover the hose with that towel as well. You will forget that it gets really cold, too.Another recommendation from others that I will repeat is to use frozen bottles of water inside the cooler box because they last longer and are easier to change out than ice alone. Peel the labels off so they don’t accidently come unglued and plug up the pump. I’ve been drinking a lot of PowerAide Zero in recovery and those bottles work well – the labels come right off and they nest with each other nicely. We actually have been able to moderate the cold intensity by reducing the number of frozen water bottles in the box. With a full box of frozen water bottles, even the lowest setting is pretty darn cold.BTW, I have been recommending this kit to everybody. If you see a spike in sales from the metro Detroit area, you can credit me a commission. ;-)A design suggestion, I would create a hose connection on the edge of the cooler, rather than as it is currently a couple of feet along a hose that protrudes from the cooler. A connection at the cooler box would make it more storable — all the parts could be rolled up and shut inside the cooler box. Otherwise, THANK YOU for a great product that is making my recovery from a rather scary surgery more bearable.

The BEST recovery aid for Rotator cuff repair
First off, this company has awesome customer service! I ordered the targeted coverage pad (for small to medium shoulder) because I am a woman with narrow shoulders and another reviewer of similar size had said that the regular broad coverage pad was too big. A few days prior to surgery I thought that I’d get it set up while I had 2 functional arms and give it a test run so that I could get home post-op and start using it right away. The cooling pad was too small. There was no way I could make it fit securely on my shoulder. Their product info said that if you ordered the wrong size they would exchange it, and a few hours after I sent them an email I got a reply that they were sending the larger size along with a prepaid mailing label and packaging to return the smaller pad. 2 days later it arrived. As for the system itself? It is easy to set up, I was able to secure the pad in just the right place on my shoulder, and I used the handy timer to set for 20 min on, 20 min continuous icing. The water stayed cold for a long time but when I noticed that it was warming up a bit, my husband could easily exchange the bottles of frozen water that we used as “ice”. Because of the Velcro strapping on the shoulder pad, when I needed to get and move around I could leave the pad securely on my shoulder and just disconnect the water tubes. No leaking whatsoever. One thing that improved the fit for me was using the smaller piece of Velcro strap to hold the pad a under my arm instead of the larger stretchy strap as indicated on the instructions. The largest stretchy strap goes around your body to hold it in place. I used the smaller stretchy strap on top of the shoulder to snug the pads together so that they totally covered around the shoulder joint area and upper arm. Awesome product, good price (cheaper than renting cold therapy device from a medical supply store), great customer service, and made in the heartland of the USA!!

Cold therapy
Item works as it should. Pump is extremely quiet. Only issue i had was a leak at the quick disconnect…and o-ring had a crushed area. Fortunately this item ships with 1 set (2) of o-rings in a small bag with the size clearly printed on bag.I would recommend using olive oil on the o-rings to help seal, especially if you will be using quick disconnect often. Using frozen bottles of water works well to cool the circulating water but if you want really cold use bagged ice straight into water. 7lbs of ice lasts me about 18 – 20 hours.In my opinion this item is a game changer, started using when I was discharged from hospital after a hip replacement. Helps with inflammation, swelling, and the muscle soreness.

Polar ice 3.0 cold therapy
This item works amazing! Had knee surgery monday, this machine does all it says & more. Lasts for hours before you have to swap out more frozen bottles. It is whisper quiet & saves time & energ6 having to swap out regular icepacks every 20 minutes. You can set the time as long or little as you would like. I let it run all night. I do recommend wearing clothing or using a small wash cloth to protect your skin from ice burn. Over pj’s pants works fine. I highly recommend this product from a family business & made is the USA. They have a phone number to contact them if needed also. This really helps with the swelling & healing pricess

Después de mi operación de meniscos, me prestaron una máquina similar, de las transparentes que no se programan. Compré esta para tener la mía. Que diferencia! La diferencia en ruido es realmente increíble. Día y noche. Es muy silenciosa. Y el control para programar es muy práctico y cómodo estando en el cable tipo remoto. Muy recomendable.

The idea works and the machine does what it says on the tin. It is cumbersome but there are very little alternatives in the market . The timer was faulty but the machine works without the timer if needed.However … the seller wasn’t great . The machine arrived with an international plug which doesn’t fit in the UK. Not a huge problem but annoying. I’m not sure I’d have chosen it knowing that. I mentioned this to the seller, they took a long time to respond and offered a small refund for me to buy an adapter . Again not a huge problem but a hassle.The refund didn’t arrive and then the timer stopped working . I emailed the seller and very politely they said … too bad .. not our issue … see you later. And that was that . Still no refund …and a faulty timer . Not the end of the world … but not great service.
