Benefits and Features of the Active Ice® 3.0 Cold Therapy System

People Using the Active Ice 3.0 Cold Therapy Systems

The Design:

Specifically designed to deliver drug-free pain relief after injury or post-surgery, when serious pain relief is required!
Whisper-quiet, high-efficiency pump circulates cold water throughout the therapy pad.
Customize your cold therapy on and off cycles with the programmable timer and temperature flow control.
Our cooling reservoirs will hold more ice or frozen water bottles than competitors, which will lengthen the duration of cold therapy before needing to add more ice or swapping out your frozen water bottles. With twice the reservoir size allowing for twice the ice/frozen water bottle capacity as our biggest competitors, Active Ice® will get you through the night!
Try frozen water bottles instead of ice! Our large cooling reservoirs allow for the use of frozen water bottles which is an easy and convenient alternative to ice. They are reusable and can be easily swapped out with an extra set from the freezer once thawed, eliminating the need to drain melted water. This is also a big help for the caregiver. The 9-quart cooling reservoir holds up to six (6) 500 ml frozen water bottles and the 16-quart cooling reservoir holds up to twelve (12) 500 ml frozen water bottles.
Convenient on/off button on the programmable timer eliminates any potential danger from fumbling in the dark to plug-in or unplug your system.
The cooler lid on the system is hinged and snaps in place, keeping it properly sealed. No mess!
The therapy pad is optimized to provide comfortable cold therapy to the desired body part while providing gentle compression. The insulated outer fabric directs maximum cold therapy to the target area.
Comfortable and easy to reuse time and time again; simply add ice and water to the cooler!
High-flow, dry, quick-disconnect couplings allow for freedom of movement, if needed.

The Programmable Timer & Adjustable Temperature Flow Control (Patent-Pending):

The Active Ice® System includes our patent-pending timer that allows you to set custom cold therapy "on" and "off" duration cycles, so you can specifically follow your healthcare provider's instruction on the proper and safe use of cold therapy. Treatment duration times can be set in ten-minute increments, up to 990 minutes, for either "on" or "off."

Never worry about the safety concerns of falling asleep with the system on. Our timer will cycle "on" and "off" per the set times, for as long as desired. This ensures safe, convenient and effective cold therapy treatment, perfect for post-surgery pain management and relief, day or night. In addition, the control allows the user to choose from 4 coldness levels depending on the user's comfort and desire. This is a critical safety and convenience feature! (Compare this to many of our competitors, which have no timer, no coldness control and even no on/off switch... systems must be unplugged after each use!)

For instructions on how to use the programmable digital timer, please refer to your Active Ice® 3.0 Cold Therapy System instruction manual.

Digital Programmable Timer & Temperature Flow Control

"It is now post-surgery and the device is my ever-present helper, I also love that I can set the on off sequence by 10-minute increments to virtually anything I would want. 30 on 30 off is one of the recommendations on the web but I have typically used 10 on 10 off although I love that I can change it as pain either increases or decreases. 1 1/2 weeks after surgery I'm using more like 10 on and 20 off since the pain has begun to subside. Absolutely fantastic customer service, this is a great product and terrific company" - Bill in Arizona

James Noel on 6/8/2021 4:15:02 PM

Details: I recently had a knee replacement surgery and instead of buying bags of ice or frozen peas etc., I took a chance on this product. I did not know anybody who had one, and found this product to be wonderful. I freeze medium to large food containers of water put them in the cooler with water and wear it all night long using the programmable digital timer, 8hrs. of on-and-off very ice cold recirculating water on my knee. Great investment.

Details: Years ago I had a Rt total knee replacement and used a gravity fed ice cooler with ice. In Dec 2020 I had a total knee replacement on my left knee.

Details: Husband had TKR (total knee replacement) and the Polar cooling unit made all the difference in the world for his recovery.
