Application Process for the Omni Ice Pulse Compression Pad
Step 1: Ensure Correct Pad Selection
Before you begin, confirm that the pad you ordered is correct. Look for the white label on the pad, which will indicate the pad type.
Step 2: Follow Universal Cold Therapy Protocol
For safe and effective use, follow the universal cold therapy protocol of 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off. Always consult with your doctor for specific instructions regarding your situation. Your doctor can also guide you on how to check your skin during treatment and advise on how long to use the cold therapy machine.
Applying the Omni Ice Pulse Compression Pad to the Knee
Though this example focuses on knee application, the Universal Pad is versatile enough to be used on other body parts, such as the shoulder. Here's how to apply it:
-
Adjust the Straps:
The pad comes with two adjustable velcro straps. Attach the straps and adjust them based on the body part you are treating. -
Place the Pad on the Knee:
Place the pad over your knee. The top strap is longer to accommodate other body areas, such as the shoulder. Wrap it around the knee and secure it in place with the velcro. -
Secure the Second Strap:
Bring the second strap around your knee and attach it securely. -
Connect the Hose:
Take the hose from the cooler and connect it to the hose on the pad. Make sure the notches align correctly on both the cooler hose and the pad's connector. Once you hear a click, the connection is secure, and you’re ready to begin your therapy.
Ready to Begin Your Therapy
Once everything is secure, you’re set to start using your Omni Ice Pulse Compression System for effective pain relief. This device will help you recover faster and get back to living your life pain-free.
