I'm now two weeks post-op from my second total knee replacement and am sleeping so much better after my second surgery than my first as I'm using my SMI cold therapy ice packs instead of the circulating ice water cooler! My gel packs stay cold for four hours and stay in place even if I move while sleeping, the cooler hose and pad did not give me that freedom. As well it is very easy to just swap out my gel packs for two from the freezer in the middle of the night, versus having to empty the cooler and refill it with fresh ice again. So grateful my hospital, University of Florida Leesburg, discharged me with SMI cold therapy gel packs. I'll be a customer for life!
I had to replace my hip pad after having it for years. I was so excited that they still had the pad that I needed.
This product works excellently. It allows you to ice the affected area completely. It will be much easier to get the cold pad into place with a helper, and also get ice for the machine, so keep that in mind.
I just had rotator cuff surgery last week. Icing is a very necessary part of my healing so i purchased a shoulder attachment to go with my Beeg polar care cube.it works quickly and very effectively all except attaching the two hoses together. I am not to be pushing or pulling my arm but I couldn’t get the two hoses attached or detached without someone helping. I Al alone most of the day so I’ve had to figure out how to do this. I use my teeth to disconnect and to connect I have to press it against a hard surface with my good arm. This doesn’t always work and is very frustrating.
Works great! Using for post op rotator cuff surgery. Cold circulation in the soft pads are so much better than ice bags and easier to use. The folks who own this business are fantastic as well.
My only improvement would be to add an on/off switch vs having to remove power by the adapter plug or receptacle. Ideally, a wireless remote would be fantastic so the user could control the timing from their seated or lying position.
Had some issues with my Breg Polar Wave, but reached out to the company and the issue was resolved immediately. Great to see a company stand behind their products. I will be a forever customer!
I purchased the Polar Cube at the advice of my surgeon to aid in the recovery of a rotator cuff repair. Unit works as it should and indeed helped with the aftermath of mt procedure.
I wish this model came with an on/off switch as plugging it in and out each time it’s used is silly and problematic for someone healing.
We ordered a replacement shoulder pad for our ice machine, and are extremely happy with it!
I am so glad we were able to purchase the ice machine and the pads. They have been a life saver since I had my knee replacement. Plus I have some back pain and everything has helped me a lot.
I purchased cryo-cuff for my knee replacement surgery. It's been running nearly non-stop 24/7 for a week now. It was an investment as I'm sure I will be needing to get more new parts for my body as I get older. So glad I bought it and absolutely no regrets.
No one can match these prices and to pay full price for what this is seemed crazy. So glad I found this site. I ordered two!!
What an incredible gift. My best friend Debbie sent me this and it arrived after two days of excruciating pain following hip replacement surgery. What a relief, it is a perfect fit, generating soothing cool exactly where the pain is the worst, cooling my incision and keeping inflammation at bay. The day I received it my leg had swollen to twice its normal size, after a couple hours with the iceman, the swelling had completely gone down. What a great product, I’m so lucky to have such a great friend that really cares about my health and well-being. I highly recommend that you buy this product pre-surgery.
A real god send! Helped with post surgery recovery. If I had any questions, your support staff was very helpful!
Very happy with the motorised cooler and the pads. Extremely efficient and convenient, and very easy to use. Highly recommended
This ice machine is awesome. Thank You
