Product Overview
How the RecoveryWrap System works
Cryotherapy - the application of cold - is commonly used in the treatment of pain and injury. It has typically been administered via ice packs or gel packs, held to the affected area.
The RecoveryWrap System improves on such methods by delivering both cold and compression with unprecedented ease and flexibility. The device is fully portable and compatible with any of the thermal wraps in the VitalWear line. And the rechargeable battery pack means patients can get the benefits of cryotherapy whenever and wherever they need it - at home, at work, or on the go.
Like the VitalWrap System, the RecoveryWrap System is composed of a control unit, a tubing set, and a thermal wrap. The dial-operated ice-water canister maintains temperatures in the 40°-70°F safety zone, and its clear plastic construction makes it easy to monitor and refill.
Common medical applications include:
- Emergency medicine
- Sports medicine and athletics
- Physical therapy
- Chiropractics
- Plastic and reconstructive procedures
- Chronic joint pain
- Arthritis
- Pregnant women and new mothers
The RecoveryWrap System shares the VitalWear market advantage of being both affordable and fully reimbursable. The appeal to physicians is also the same: because the system is convenient and easy to use, patients are more likely to follow their pain management program, heal more quickly, and require less pain medication.
