Aircast Hand and Wrist Cryo Cuff
Aircast Hand and Wrist Cryo Cuff
Controlled cold compression provides immediate relief and support for wrist injuries
The Aircast Hand and Wrist Cryo/Cuff combines the therapeutic benefits of controlled compression and cold to minimise haemarthrosis and swelling and reduce pain.
After landing heavily on your wrist, rehabilitation from a fracture or surgery, the Aircast Cryo Cuff for the hand and wrist is the ideal rehabillitation tool. The versitile cuff is anatomically designed to completely fit the hand providing maximum coverage of the wrist joint and allowing the whole surface area to have the continual cooling benefit of cryotherapy.
After an injury blood vessels are damaged and this allows blood cells and fluid to seep into spaces around the joint, resulting in swelling and bruising. When ice is applied the temperature decreases and constricts local blood vessels, slowing metabolism and decreasing fluid build-up. Ice can also numb nerve endings, reducing the transfer of impulses to the brain that register as pain.
The cuff needs attaching to the Aircast Cryo/Cuff Cooler and will hold water and ice needed for six to eight hours of cryotherapy. The durable cooler comes with a tube assembly and insulation disk and simple-to-follow directions for use.
Please note that this item cannot be returned for a refund once used with water. Please check size of the cuff before filling with water.
