Frequently Asked Questions

Suggested: Brace Direct Back Brace Hot or Cold Therapy Pack

How long should I use an ice pack on my back?

Use cold for short sessions with a thin cloth between the pack and your skin, and follow the directions on the product. One good method for acute low back pain is ice for the first 48 to 72 hours, then heat.

Do I need a cold therapy machine or an ice pack?

An ice pack is fine for most back pain and strains. A cold therapy machine gives steady cold for longer and is most often used after surgery, so ask your surgeon.
