Elasto-Gel™ products may be used for either hot or cold therapy and will not leak if punctured. When heated, products provide moist therapy heat and when used cold, products provide soothing cold without causing trauma to the skin or nerves. In addition, when used cold, the products remain soft and flexible even at -20ºF. The products will not dry out, become hard or change form and are re-usable. The products have the ability to conform to all contoured areas and move with patient movement. Products are covered with a four-way stretch material that allows maximum conformity, heat transfer and comfort.

The ideal hot/cold therapy
The Elasto-Gel Therapy Products are designed to provide moist heat therapy or soothing cold therapy for relief of minor muscular and joint aches and pains. The hot or cold therapy will last 20 to 40 minutes per application. The product is held in place with hook and loop type closures, which allow the user to move about during therapy. The product is microwavable so it can provide nearly continuous heat therapy. When used cold, the product conforms to contours, even at -20°F (-30°C), allowing comfortable soothing cold applications.

A specially formulated gel
This product is made with Elasto-Gel, a patented* gel with exceptional properties for transferring heat or soothing cold. If punctured, it will not leak and will remain usable. The unique combination of specially selected fabric and tough flexible gel provides an exceptional durable product for use in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, athletic facilities and the home.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

COLD THERAPY:
Store the mask in the freezer for a minimum of two (2) hours. It may be left in the freezer indefinitely until ready to use. It will remain flexible even at -20°F. Remove the mask prior to defrosting the freezer. Note: Always store product in a plastic bag while in freezer

HEAT THERAPY
The most convenient method of heating the mask is in a microwave oven. Suggested heating times: 600-700 watt microwave: 20-30 Seconds per side, 1100 watt: 10 seconds per side. Note: all microwaves vary in heating and may have “hot spots”. Be cautious when heating.

Wait one minute (60 seconds) before use. The mask should feel WARM to the touch, NOT HOT. Hold the mask firmly against the skin for 30 seconds before re-heating*. If the mask is not warm enough, heat in 10 second increments and rotate the product each time.

The mask can also be heated in a conventional oven at 250°F for 10-15 minutes. Place mask on cookie sheet or baking dish in the center of the oven. Do not allow the straps to touch the heating element. Flip the mask after 6 minutes for even heating.

DO NOT GET THE PRODUCTS WET
The gel will absorb water and swell. If the product becomes damp, lay it on a flat surface and allow it to fully air dry before continuing use. Do not use wet towels under the gel.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the outside cover and hand wash in cold water and mild soap. Hang up to dry. Wipe the white inner cover with a damp (not wet) cloth using mild soap or disinfectant. Allow the product to fully air dry before continuing to use.

*CAUTION: DO NOT OVERHEAT!! Due to the nature of the gel, it may only feel warm to the touch, but if the mask has been overheated, too much heat may be transferred to the body and can cause burns.
