Description

The hot and cold pack for your knee is made of durable nylon material inside which there is an active gel which accumulates cold or warmth. The packs are multiple purposeful. They can be used for either cold therapy or hot therapy. For cold therapy, you place it in the freezer for a period of time and then when frozen, it will work to reduce inflammation at the site of the injury. For heat therapy, place it in the mircowave and then place it on the site of the injury. You may need to wrap the pack in a towel before placing it on the injury. This is to prevent irritation from the direct heat or cold.
The packs are reusable.
