At SMI Cold Therapy, we believe that “Simple is Always Better!” Why deal with the hassle of messy ice bags that sweat and leak when strapping on a SMI compression wrap is simple, mess-free and more effective at relieving pain and swelling? Why deal with the hassle of cooling machines that require wet, drippy ice, inconvenient tubing and restrictive power cords when a SMI wrap stays snuggly in place and allows for maximum mobility? Why not experience the SMI Advantage that over 600 programs have discovered and are now enjoying?

More Than Just Cold
SMI Wraps Offer
3 Types of Therapies
No need to use different products for different therapies. Our wraps can do all three!
Cold Therapy
Use our long-lasting gel bags frozen
Also known as Cryotherapy, Cold Therapy is used mainly for joint pain and aches. It reduces blood flow to the area of the body to which it’s applied. This reduces the inflammation that leads to pain and can also temporarily reduce nerve activity. Additional effects include controlling hemorrhage, preventing edema (swelling) and blocking pain receptors.
Cold Therapy Therapeutic Uses:
Reduce or stop bleeding
Slow bacterial activity
Relieve postoperative pain following surgical procedure, dental surgeries, headaches, or muscle or joint injury
Prevent swelling in injured tissues
Prevent peristalsis in patients with abdominal inflammation
Reduce bruising
Control pain and fluid loss in the initial treatment of burns
Diminish muscle contraction and spasm
Heat Therapy
Use our long-lasting gel bags heated
Heat Therapy is used mainly for muscle pain and aches. It helps improve blood flow and circulation to an injured area and helps to relieve discomfort while improving muscle flexibility for recovery. Heat Therapy can also heal damaged tissue. Heat causes vasodilation of the blood vessels, which increases blood flow to the area of application. This in turn, increases the amount of oxygen, nutrients, and white blood cells delivered to the body tissues. In addition, vasodilation assists in the removal of waste products from injured tissues.
Heat Therapy Therapeutic Uses:
Relieve localized pain, stiffness, or aching in joints or muscles
Decrease muscle spasm and tightness
Increase muscle flexibility
Increase blood flow to the area
Promote wound healing
Reduce inflammation
Compression Therapy
Our straps provide strong compression
Compression Therapy uses controlled pressure to increase blood flow to certain areas and improve blood flow to the heart. It supports veins and decreases edema (swelling). Compression Therapy is found to be the most effective when it’s combined with movement.
Compression Therapy Therapeutic Uses:
Prevention of leg swelling for people who stand or sit for long periods of time
Effective delivery of cold/heat to a targeted area of the body
Management of varicose veins
Used to treat Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Improves healing of leg ulcers & prevents them from coming back
Maintenance therapy for lymphedema
Improvement in chronic venous insufficiency & ulcer recurrence in older adults
