Can I use the Active Ice® Therapy Pads with a non-Polar Products unit?
No, the Active Ice® Therapy Pads are not compatible with units from other brands. The therapy pads are specifically designed to work with the Active Ice® Cold Therapy System and utilize a unique coupling connection exclusive to Polar Products units.
Are Active Ice® Therapy Pads interchangeable between body parts?
Yes. All Active Ice® Therapy Pads are designed to work with the same control unit. If you already own an Active Ice® System, you don't need a whole new setup to treat a different area, just purchase a separate Therapy Pad. Click here to view all Therapy Pad Options.
This is the second product I purchased from Polar Products the first was a hip pad for my hip replacement back in 2021. It was probably the best thing I ever did for post-op surgery, as I was able to sleep with the pad on and iced all through the night and day. That’s why when I knew I was having my shoulder replaced recently, I wanted to get the shoulder pad because I know how important the icing is after surgery and getting me back to normal!
Besides making excellent products, their customer service is unparalleled. They are based in the US and use cutting-edge technology to help us heal.
The Large shoulder pad worked very well to keep the swelling down after I had reverse shoulder replacement surgery. I had purchased a 16 quart Polar Ice machine through a different outlet. I purchased the shoulder pad here. It did wonders, little to no swelling or pain. It's not easy to put on by oneself, especially the 1st time. After that I could slide my arm in without unfastening all the straps. The remote is easy to program, I was doing 20 minutes on 10 off. The ice bottles (9 of them in my 16 qt cooler) would last around 6 + hours. I supplemented that with a gallon size slider bag full of ice cubes which kept everything cold for 10 hours +. I used it almost continuously for most of the first 4 days and then less frequently over 2 weeks. I would rather have rented one but here in California anyway that was not available. I would not do a surgery without this. Highly recommend.
Extra strong velcro, both a blessing and a curse. This is the 3rd product I've bought, one for knee, one for back and this for shoulder surgery. Need a helper to put it on, but it does an excellent job with even coverage and no slipping.
Had a rotator cuff repair and this ice machine and therapy pad for inflammation and pain management was a game changer for me. It delivered cold water 20 min on 20 min off. I didn't have to move. Easy to disconnect and reconnect if needed. Just knowing that you need to start the timer again to make sure your connection is secure so it doesn't leak. 10 out of 10 recommend this product for rotator cuff surgery recovery!
