How Do I Use the Cuff? 

To prepare, apply and use the cuff, please follow these four simple steps: 

Step One: Prepare the Cooler

Start by connecting the blue tube to the cooler. Fill the cooler to the line with water and top with ice. Place the insulation disk on top of the ice and gently close the cooler lid. Allow up to five minutes for the water to cool before use. 

Step Two: Apply the Cuff

If better mobility is required, open the cuff straps and remove the cuff bars before inserting your hand (see figure 1).

Decide which thumb hole to use before positioning your hand into the cuff (see figure 2). 

Secure your hand into place using the straps provided, starting with the finger straps and working your way up the arm (see figure 3).

Step Three: Fill the Cuff

Connect the blue tube with the cooler. Open the air vent and raise the cooler approximately 38 centimetres above the cuff.

Hold the cooler in place for about 30 seconds until the cuff is full of water and close the cooler air vent. Using the metal tab, disconnect the cooler from the cuff to allow uninterrupted treatment. 

Step Four: Rechill Water 

Reconnect the blue tube with the cuff and raise the cuff above the cooler to allow it to drain. Allow the water to chill for up to two minutes before raising the cooler to begin treatment.

How Long Can I Use the Cuff For?

You can use the cuff for up to two hours with each use. It is recommended that you leave at least 20 minutes between each therapy session to allow for rest and recovery. 

Can I Apply the Cuff Directly onto My Skin?

Before using the cuff, you must wrap the skin with a cloth, bandage or similar in order to create a bridge between your skin and the cuff. This is to prevent you from incurring further injury while using the device such as skin burn.

To clean the cuff and cooler units after use, simply wash with soap and hot water before rinsing and leaving to air dry.
