- Airflow soft-stretch padded fabric, on shin area, cools and protects
- New stretch breathable NON-SWEAT fabric (at the calf area) delivers strong consistent compression without numbing surface nerves
- Warms without sweat to encourage local blood circulation and prevent cramping
- Strong or light compression is determined by the wearer
- Includes ice/heat pack and soft velour bag to prevent ice-burn
CAUTION:
Do not wear during sleep

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
HOW TO USE AN ICE PACK
- Use within 24 - 48 hrs of an injury
- Use for acute injury to reduce inflammation, muscle spasm, pain and if the area is swollen or bruised
* Do not use for more than 20mins at a time, remove pack and re-apply at 10min intervals as required
FREEZING INSTRUCTIONS
- Place pack in freezer for a minimum of 2 hours before use
HOW TO USE A HEAT PACK
Heat increases blood flow and relaxes muscles. It is good for easing tight stiff muscles and chronic muscle pain. Heat can also be used before exercise to increase flexibility of joints and increase blood flow.
WAIT AT LEAST 24 HOURS AFTER AN INJURY BEFORE APPLYING HEAT
AVOID APPLYING HEAT THERAPY TO: bruised, cut, injected areas or an area subjected to ‘invasive’ procedure (heat can increase risk of bleeding). Do not use if the affected area has heat or swelling
HEATING INSTRUCTIONS
- Place pack in the microwave for 20seconds at 600W
- If more heat is needed increase heating time in 10 second intervals until desired temperature is acquired
- Do not use for more than 20mins at a time, followed by a 20min break. Repeat the process 3-4 times daily until stiffness and soreness decreases
