Large Coverage – Includes a large nylon reusable gel ice pack (11″ x 14″), a matching wrap and an extension strap. This product can meet your requirement of large size ice pack. Compared to using the ice pack alone, the cover can prevent the condensate water during use and the potential infection.
Unique Design – The two-divider design of the gel pack can limit the flow of the gel partly and help to keep the gel in uniform distribution. As a result, the gel will not easily clump together unlike other large cold packs. Choosing sponge lined blue cloth and mesh cloth as the materials, the wrap feels very soft and comfortable and also the ice/heat in the gel pack can go through and reach the skin and tissue easily.
Hot Cold Dual Use – Filled with enough non-toxic gel, the reusable gel pack delivers up to 30 minutes of soothing cool or heat relief for aches and pains. It keeps still flexible and soft after frozen even at -4°F(-20°C). Also, it can be heated in hot water or by microwave.
Versatile – This product can be used for shoulder rotator cuff, back, belly, hips, thighs, knees, shins etc. It is also a first-aid essential for home or clinical use as it is ideal for sports injuries, postoperative recovery, muscle pains, strain & stiffness, body aches and more!

Arthrofibrosis (AF) is abnormal internal scarring inside the knee joint and surrounding structures. It may begin with sticky adhesions that can gum up the surfaces that are close to one another, such as the suprapatellar pouch above the patella, the anterior interval behind the patellar tendon, the area around the cruciate ligaments and the capsular ‘gutters’ at the side of the joint.
The abnormal ‘gumminess’ of these normally mobile tissues leads to painful knee stiffness. Attempts to bend the knee result in sickening pain above the knee in the region of the suprapatellar pouch. Aggressive physiotherapy tends to make the knee hot, swollen, red and painful, and instead of mobility improving it tends to worsen. Lack of understanding about the arthrofibrotic process may lead to doctor and physiotherapist berating the patient for not trying hard enough, and the patient may feel demoralized and angry.
Manipulation Under Anesthesia
The objective of manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) for the knee is to break sticky adhesions gumming surfaces together before these adhesions turn into proper scar tissue. To this end, the procedure should be done early once it is appreciated that physiotherapy is no longer improving range of motion (ROM) or that ROM is getting worse. During the procedure the patient needs to be fully anaesthetized and under the influence of true muscle relaxants. The hip should be bent to 90 degrees and the surgeon hold the thigh near the knee and apply a gentle rocking motion of the lower limb through flexion and extension while observing improvement.
Not every practitioner will perform the manipulation in exactly the same way. By having the patient under anesthetic or deep sedation, the clinician is able to gently but firmly take the knee through as much of a range of motion as possible in order to free any adhesions. A danger of course is that the inexperienced practitioner may be too rough and cause damage to the tissues.
