Cold
Compression Wraps For Tennis Elbow Or Elbow Injury To Stop Pain and Swelling
The ICE Therapy
Wrap is designed to reduce pain and swelling in your elbow from aches
and pains caused by sprains, overexertion or repetetive injuries, especially
Tennis, Golf, and other elbow activity-intensive actions.
ICE Therapy Wraps are USTA approved and
recommended
For Tennis Elbow Injury Therapy
ICE Therapy Elbow wraps
are the Gold Standard for controlling elbow pain and swelling from over
exhertion, stressed elbows, elbow sprains, and injuries to the elbow.
ICE Therapy wraps combine cold therapy and compression therapy in a single
wrap and are MD and trainer recommended to reduce pain and swelling in
a sore elbow or swollen elbow.
Elbow sprain is one
of the most common sports injuries found in baseball pitchers, golfers,
tennis players or anyone else with elbow tendon injuries such as nursemaid's
elbow. The recommended sports therapy medical treatment for an elbow sprain
is to use cold (ice wraps) and compression to stop elbow pain and stop
elbow swelling.
The sooner a sprain
is treated the sooner the recovery period. Ice therapy and compression
is hard to achieve on the golf course, the sports field, or the tennis
court. But not with a ICE Therapy refreezable cold wrap, the most recommended
sports therapy treatment for a sore elbow or sprained elbow.
Place an ICE Therapy
wrap in your freezer for 2 hours and then apply it to your sore elbow
after every exercise period. The compression drives the cold deep into
the muscles, tendons and ligaments to provide soothing relief and faster
recovery from an elbow injury or elbow tendonitis. ICE Therapy wraps significantly
decrease your return to partipation interval.
ICE Therapy Cold Compression
wraps should be used immediately following a soft tissue injury for at
least 15-20 minutes, then followed by repeated use every three hours for
the first day. The second day usage 3 times daily is sufficient. Once
the elbow swelling has subsided, the wrap need only be used when swelling
or pain are present following use or exercise of the injured area. Most
people find they use the wrap occaisionally for an extended time while
the injury heals itself.
ICE Therapy wraps
should be part of every athlete's pre-hab and re-hab routine for a sprain
sports injury. Many
prominent orthopedic clinics and surgical hospitals use ICE Therapy wraps
on athletes and individuals prior to and after surgery to control pain
and swelling. The ICE Therapy wrap is convenient, comfortable, and easy
to use.The ICE Therapy is the perfect wrap for basketball, tennis, baseball
or any elbow sprain or elbow sports injury.
ICE Therapy cold therapy
compression wraps effectively reduce pain and control swelling of injured
or overused soft tissues, ligaments, tendons and muscles.
The swelling and pain
is caused by damage to the blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients
to soft tissue cells or muscles. The injured soft tissue cells are deprived
of the oxygen and nutrients necessary for healthy cells and maintenance
of the bodys natural healing process. The damaged blood vessels
are also unable to remove cell waste. Uncontrolled, this process causes
cell death and results in blood and fluid seeping into the damaged portions
of the muscle creating swelling and bruising which creates additional
injury to the affected area. This additional injury is what prolongs recovery
from stressed elbows.
Cold compression therapy
constricts the blood vessels and slows down the metabolism of the cells.
The reduced metabolism lowers the need for the oxygen and nutrients and
slows the rate of cell death and the resulting excess build up of blood
and fluid.
Cold therapy also
has a numbing effect on the nerve endings decreasing the impulses to the
brain perceived as pain. ICE
Therapy wraps deliver both cold therapy and compression therapy at the
same time. The combination drives the cold deeper into the injured tissue
than ice packs, frozen peas, or frozen chemical gel bags.
Apply a ICE Therapy elbow
wrap immediately after any strenous elbow exercise to stop pain and reduce
elbow swelling.
The sooner a sore
elbow is treated the faster the recovery time. Continued use of a frozen
ICE Therapy wrap will significantly help a sore elbow heal and get the athlete
back to the sport.
