Elasto-Gel Hot & Cold Shoulder Sleeve

Gel thin on top, thick at bicep

I use it 1-2 times a day and it is helping to reduce shoulder inflammation. For my therapy, I need cold therapy on the upper shoulder and joint. The pad is well sewn and flexible. However, the upper pad over trapezius down to deltoids is thin, and doesn't stay cold longer than 12 minutes. If you need bicep and pectoralis coverage this pad has excellent gel thickness. The strap wrapping torso is a lighter elastic than it should be, too stretchy to adjust without concern, and will likely not endure. I am a medium sized, trim man. The rear buckle has a fixed lead that lands the plastic buckle exactly on my spine creating an unpleasant sore spot. I sit straight up in an overstuffed chair to relax and enjoy the cold therapy but the buckle hurts. I can put it on by myself
