Staying Pain Free
Chase away those post-workout
aches and pains with a Torex Hot/Cold Therapy Sleeve.
The tubular-shaped packs deliver faster pain relief by
completely surrounding the affected limb or joint in a soft cushion of hot or
cold gel. The sleeve stays soft when frozen or heated so that it molds to the
body, sending soothing cold or heat to the entire area. Bonus: Torex packs stay
in place without straps. They’re also reusable, latex-free and available in
five sizes for limb circumferences of 3” to 28”. $16.95-$26.95. Torexhealth.com
