ActiveWrap Foot Ankle Heat and Ice Wraps are professional compress supports providing targeted relief for the unique curvatures of the foot and ankle. The ActiveWrap Ankle Compress Support is recommended for ankle sprains, foot sprains, Plantar Fasciitis, Hell Spurs, and sore arches, as well as, Achilles Tendonitis, Sever's disease, heel pain, Bursitis and swelling and soreness. The ActiveWrap Foot and Ankle Thermal Compress Support is available in Sm/Md for foot sizes 3 to 10 and Lg/XL for foot sizes 10.5 to 18. ActiveWrap features an easy to use hook and loop design that conveniently allows you to create any configuration inside your wrap. Active medical plush supporters deliver an ultra soft feel with jersey outside and lycra trim lining.
Two reusable hot or cold packs are included with the support and can be secured anywhere you need them. ActiveWrap Heat and Ice Packs are specially formulated of non-toxic gelatinous thermal material, preventing the gel from "pooling" and "pushing" away from the injured site. ActiveWrap Gel Packs are sealed in sturdy 8.5 mil PE/Nylon coverings and packaged in washable nylon protective pouches. Simply chill the packs in a freezer or microwave them for soothing heat therapy. Continuous no-mess cold treatments are readily available by rotating the packs in and out of the wrap as needed. ActiveWrap's hot and cold packs also provide interval contrast heat and cold treatments, which are effective in the post-acute phase of injury.
The ActiveWrap Foot Compress Support treatment system includes an ActiveWrap medical plush support wrap and two small, reusable 5" x 7" thermal packs packaged in a nylon drawstring storage bag.
See the ACCESSORIES tab above to add an additional set of heat and ice packs to compliment your wrap. Keep a set at room temperature for immediate heat use and store another pair in the freezer for quick cold applications.

YES; around the house. Simply remove the pouch underneath the arch and you have full flexibility of movement during treatment for Ankle, Achilles or injuries to the top side of the foot. Our knee/leg wrap also allows freedom of basic movement without slipping but is not designed for use during a workout.
ActiveWrap packs are designed to keep the optimally desired cold at the foot (between 40 to 50 degrees) for over 20 minutes when applied. This is a built in safety component of our ice packs. The standard recommended treatment time is 15 minutes. Ice packs claiming to stay cold for several hours at a time are generally chemical based and reach temperatures that can be harmful to the skin and underlying tissue. Remember a colder pack does not mean a quicker recovery.
ActiveWrap ice packs are uniquely manufactured to prevent "gel migration." This means that our gel material is elastic or rubbery by nature and can not be pushed or flattened from one side to the other. If you imagine a tube of toothpaste being pushed from the bottom up, this is how traditional gel packs have reacted under pressure. ActiveWrap ice packs deliver a uniform blanketing treatment when used for both heat and or ice therapy. No migration...no bare spots...a big difference.
A simple fresh water rinse and hang dry will keep your wrap clean for years to come. It is also recommended to keep your hook and loop material clean for maximum holding capacity.
Why did we switch from horse drawn carriages to automobiles? Modern materials and efficiency. Ice is often hard and sharp resulting in discomfort when compressed against the skin. This leads to an individual having to reduce the pressure of wrapping the joint to tolerate a typical treatment. The ActiveWrap allows for a snug fit combining maximum compression and direct cold coverage to any painful area. ActiveWrap is easy to apply for any age athlete and will save your facility money in the long term with countless re-usable applications. Ice bags tear and cost money along with the elastic wraps or plastic that is used to secure the ice to the body. Gym facilities will further reduce the chance of dripping water on the floor reducing liability risks within the gym by using ActiveWrap. Tips for using hot and cold therapy Dont wait for an injury to incorporate ice into your training routine. Prevent overuse and typical inflammatory injuries by icing down after each workout for 15 minutes. Your cool down phase of training is just as important as a proper warm up. Do not sleep with an ice pack on your body. Cold therapy and use of ActiveWrap should be no longer than 15 minutes at a time. Do not lay directly as to apply your body weight on an ice pack. Ice during travel by keeping an ice pack or two at the gym and a couple at home. Most gymnastic facilities will provide freezer storage where you can place your handy black ice packs in your ActiveWrap drawstring carry pouch equipped with your name. This will save hours of time each week by allowing you or your child to ice down (without the mess in the car) when traveling. Best of all, it will help prevent lost hours in the gym by assisting in the prevention of many inflammatory injuries. If you use the ice and cold therapy a lot, it is a good idea to give your skin a rest from time to time to prevent any chance of skin irritation. A thin paper towel is always good between cold and direct skin contact.
