Review on Icy Relief for Ankle and Foot: The Ultimate Ice Therapy Wrap by Tony York

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Would have been better with a gel pack than ice

I've had Achilles for almost ten years now and it's getting worse - it doesn't help that I'm very active in tennis and golf. I have large calves, so the top fits snugly. If the bandage were a bit shorter and with heel protection, it would be more effective. I'm not sure how this product will help with sole foot issues. Caveat: I put the ice pack in the freezer overnight and after golf (walking) I went to the ice pack. The ice cream "bubbled" and looked like it would have popped if I held it longer. I took it out and put it in the fridge to soften the ice a bit. The ice stayed cold enough for my 20 minute cure. A gel pack is better for any foot. The ice is too hard. So two improvements make it a 5 star product: 1) heel counter and 2) gel wrap.

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Compatibility
