Description
How the Instant Cold Pack Works
The cold pack is ideal for emergency pitch-side use or relief on the trail. The packs are activated with a chemical reaction when squeezed and do not require pre-cooling in a freezer, meaning they're ready whenever and wherever you need them.
How to Use
Step 1: Activate the pack by squeezing it and gently shaking it to mix the contents.
Step 2: Place the pack on the injured area. Take care not to apply the cold pack directly to your skin; always use a protective barrier like a therapy cover or compression cuff to prevent frostbite.
Step 3: After use, simply dispose of the cold pack with your ordinary household waste.
