The cold compression pad does not cool uniformly. The area of the pad where the hose connects is uncomfortably extremely cold even on the low setting, while the other half of the pad is mildly cold. If the compression pad worked correctly, it would be a fantastic unit. Not worth the price we paid. Will be returning for sure!
The cold and compression really help my surgical pain relief. I hate to turn it off when I am supposed to. I am following all Doctor's directions for after surgery, so I am not over doing it. Cold therapy machines are not always spoken about from medical teams, they tell you to use ice on your surgical area, but I learned about using g cold machines and the Breg Polar Care Wave is a great little work horse of a machine. It soooo much better than ice packs or frozen peas. if you can afford to buy this therapeutical machine..do it. Who knows own if down the road I may have to replace my left knee as well. I have the Breg at the ready
It has been great for the swelling in pain on my knee. Very easy to use and multiple settings.
Love the machine. Had a small issue and customer service responded quickly and rectified my problem.
I read about this a few days before my husband’s surgery and needed to find one quickly. Supply cold therapy shipped one out quickly to us and it arrived 2 days before the surgery! They didn’t have any knee attachments but were expecting a shipment the next day. So someone who worked there called me and verified a Saturday delivery wls be on vs a Friday delivery, as I had paid for a 2 day delivery by Friday. Saturday was perfectly fine as surgery was on Monday! A+++
