Vive Knee Ice Pack Wrap - Cold/Hot Gel Compression Brace - Heat Support Strap for Arthritis Pain, Tendonitis, ACL, Athletic Injury, Osteoarthritis, Women, Men, Running, Meniscus and Patella Surgery

I am an RN who has used many, as well as made my own ice packs. Recently sustained a knee injury and ordered this Vive ice pack/wrap. It is wonderful! Just put it in freezer, or put the 3 artic-flex ice packs in freezer. Wrap it around your knee, right or left, and it feels so good. You can walk around with it on and it stays in place- unlike others that roll down or don't stay cold. This one is soft, flexible, and can be worn under clothes on skin, or over yoga pants. The velcro straps are stretchy and long enough to wrap around a larger thigh for hamstring area or swollen knee area or calf area. I like the compression that I can control depending on level of swelling or soreness I have. It is made well and I would definitely recommend this for cold therapy- oh and it can also be used for heat therapy! Excellent quality and value for the money. I will be purchasing more to be given as gifts!

Great product. It is thick and durable. Gel packs last a good amount of time and doeant take forever to freeze. The straps allow for you to adjust and have a flexible perfect fit!

I have had many different types but this one is the best I have found! Easy to use great coverage of both the top bottom and back of my knee. The Velcro is great quality if other reviews say different they’re not using it correctly. I don’t need to pull the ice bags out to freeze just fit to the curve of your knee (I leave mine on for 25 min) take off keeping the form of my knee put it in the freezer take it out the next time and fits right back. If I have to adjust the ice pads you can gently reform it. Just be careful when u put back in the freezer and it will fit right back into place. A couple said it froze like a rock that would only happen if your freezer is set to cold. I’ve tried over 15 different products and this has the best fit quality and the Velcro is top notch!!! If you take care of it and don’t just yank it off it will last a long time!Great product guys

Excellent product. Very happy with this purchase. Supporting painful, injured knee for fit adult. Able to ice comfortably throughout the day and refreezes well between uses.

I used these for cold packs for my knees. It is so convenient to just put them on and go about my day instead of having to stay in one place for 20 minutes for the treatment. It's easier to put the gel packs in the knee brace and then put it in the freezer, than to just put the gel packs in the freezer and try to get them in the brace afterward. But once I used them I found a marked difference in how my knees feel.

I bought this for my post-op total knee replacement. It comes with three gel packs though I only use the two front ones. It gets quite old within 2.5 hours and stays cold. I even need to put a towel between my skin and the wrap. Even when frozen overnight I find I can manipulate it to fit around my leg. I like this better than the hospital prescribed wrap. There are four Velcro tabs which can sometimes feel like I’m wrestling with an octopus (quad-ro-puss?) but once stuck, it stays on. I’ve even fallen asleep with it on and it’s never loosened or come off. I like it!

I am really satisfied with the Vive ice pack. It’s supposed to come with three ice packs to go inside of the three compartments on the knee brace itself. (two in the middle and one on the side). The ice compartment on the side is nice because it wraps around the back of the leg. I get a least 30 minutes of cold which is better than others I have tried that only stayed cold for 15 minutes. The straps allows it to stay in place while I walk around.Initially they only sent one of the ice packs that go inside but I contacted the company and they sent me three new ice packs with no problem.

I just had knee surgery and I was tired of all those inefficient ice bags. No more frozen vegetables or hospital ice packs.Why cheap out when you got only so much time left before you go to go back to work. If your goal is to recover fast, then I suggest you get it.Build quality and engineering seems well planned. It's got velcro loving fabric everywhere, so you can't miss a spot to apply the straps. So you can make it tight or loose very easily.So far after using this product, doing lots of exercise and using a TENS UNIT, I have seen my swelling go down. I have had a reduction in pain as well. The goal is to use the ice pack to reduce swelling after focused exercising. This should help you in recovery.At the end of the day it does it's job well.
