A Comprehensive Guide to Using the CryoDynamics Hip Pad

At Supply Physical Therapy, we strive to provide you with the best tools and resources for your recovery journey. One of our most innovative products, the CryoDynamics Arc Hip Pad, offers targeted cold therapy to alleviate hip pain and inflammation. Here’s how you can use it effectively.

What Makes the CryoDynamics Hip Pad Special?

The CryoDynamics Hip Pad is designed to provide maximum comfort and convenience. It’s reversible, allowing it to be used on either hip, and features adjustable straps for a customized fit. With easy setup and straightforward application, this hip pad is ideal for anyone looking to relieve pain and speed up recovery.

Steps for Safe and Effective Use

  1. Confirm the Correct Pad: Check the white label on the corner of the packaging to ensure you have the right pad.
  2. Prioritize Safety: Never place the pad directly on your skin to avoid frostbite or skin irritation. Use clothing or another barrier to protect your skin, and always adhere to the recommended 20-minute therapy intervals.

Applying the Hip Pad

  • Prepare the Pad: Lay it flat on a clean surface with the desired side facing up.
  • Secure the Pad with Velcro: Use the Velcro attachments to position and secure the pad correctly.
  • Insert and Connect the Hose: Feed the hose through the opening at the bottom, then attach it to the pad.
  • Wrap the Straps: With a barrier in place, apply the pad and wrap the adjustable straps around your abdomen and thigh.

Getting the System Up and Running

To start your cold therapy:

  • Connect the Hoses: Press the metal tabs and secure the hoses in place. A slight leakage may occur, which is normal—keep a towel handy to catch any drips.
  • Activate the Device: Plug in the power supply, located next to the hose, and turn on the device. You should see a light indicator signaling that it's ready for use.
