Flexible 12 x 29cm gel pack with a soft nylon exterior, suitable for hot or cold therapy. Professional-grade gel core retains temperature while moulding to body contours for targeted relief.
Rapid Hot-or-Cold Relief – with microwaveable and freezer-safe gel core
Heating requires an initial 20-second microwave blast followed by 10-second bursts if more warmth is needed, while chilling is achieved by storing in a freezer. The gel core absorbs and releases thermal energy, enabling quick transitions between hot and cold therapy.
Fast preparation means relief is available within minutes for sudden strains or swelling, reducing downtime after activity.
Sustained Soothing Comfort – thanks to a professional-grade gel core
Professional-grade gel retains thermal energy and stays flexible during use, allowing sustained contact with the skin. Temperature retention has been tested to last for up to two hours during a single application.
Longer-lasting warmth or cold means fewer reheats or refreezes during a treatment session, so routines are easier to manage.
Targeted Fit and Comfort – with a flexible 12 x 29cm form and soft nylon cover
At 12 x 29cm the shape moulds to curves and joints, while the soft nylon exterior gives comfortable skin contact. Flexibility allows the gel to conform to stomach, back, neck and leg contours.
Improved surface contact delivers more effective therapy to specific sore spots, useful for muscle tightness and localised aches.
