Troubleshooting
Gel sleeve feels too rigid when frozen
Ensure the sleeve is removed from the freezer for 1-2 minutes before application to allow it to reach optimal flexibility.
Cold sensation fades too quickly
Keep the sleeves in the freezer for longer periods and ensure the freezer temperature is set to the manufacturer's recommended cold setting.
Sleeve does not fit securely
Ensure you are applying the sleeve to the appropriate joint size and smoothing out any folds to ensure full 360-degree contact.
