    Frequently Asked Questions

    How long do my ice packs keep cold? Warm?

    FOR COLD

    Ultra Flex Ice & Heat Packs

    • 4.5" x 6.5"- 20 min
    • 7" x 10" - 40+ min
    • 10' x 10" - 40+ min

    Long Duration Ice Packs

    • 7" x 10" - 2+ hrs
    • 10" x 10" - 4+ hrs

    FOR HEAT

    Small Packs - 15-20 minutes, however the benefits continue long past this when used inside our wraps. The ActiveWrap wraps lock in the packs warmth for another 15-20 minutes after the pack returns to room temperature.

    Large Packs/XL Packs - up to 40 minutes of therapeutic warming when combined with the ActiveWrap support.

    *Pro Tip - Use a moist towel and insert it inside the nylon slip cover in front of the pack. This acts to deliver a penetrating moist heat treatment.

    * Above times may vary subject to how cold your freezer is, ambient temperature and the temperature of body part. Always follow the instructions for safe application and consult a healthcare professional on your exact treatment time/protocol if you're unsure.

    How long should I keep ice on my injury?

    The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) does not provide a universally applicable guideline for using ice after every type of injury, physical therapists follow best practices based on clinical evidence. The use of ice, or cryotherapy, is primarily recommended for an acute soft-tissue injury to manage pain and reduce excess inflammation.

    The general guidance it to apply ice for 15–20 minutes at a time, always with the provided barrier to protect skin. When using ice continuously...allow the skin area to fully rewarm for 30–60 minutes before repeating to prevent irritation or tissue damage. Never use the ActiveWrap ice pack without the nylon slip cover.

    Disclaimer:The above information is provided as a general guide and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult with your physician regarding any questions you may have about a medical condition or before using this product. Use only as directed.

    What size ice pack compliments my current activewrap system?

    • Small (4.5" x 6.5"): for wrist & foot wraps
    • Medium (6" x 9"): ankle, elbow & neck wraps
    • Large (7" X 10"): knee & shoulder wraps
    • Large Square (10" X 10"): hip & back wraps
    • X-Large (13.5" x 10"): XXL back & hip wraps

    This is a general and "most recommended" guide. However, since all our ice packs are modular and compatible you are not limited to these configurations. As example, for smaller body sizes or youth, you can use Small or Medium packs inside a Knee Wrap.

    Are ActiveWrap Ice packs FDA registered and non-toxic?

    Yes. ActiveWrap standard ice packs utilize a 100% food grade gel that is non-toxic. All ActiveWrap products are FDA registered since 1997.

    Other ice packs contain chemicals such as Urea and Ammonium Nitrate (used in fertilizers). Instant ice packs are a popular choice for reducing swelling and pain for low budget organizations or when freezers are not available. They work by undergoing a chemical reaction that creates a cooling effect. The upside is they are cheap to use...the downside is they are one time use, require a wrap and are chemical-based with ingredients mentioned above.

    ActiveWrap only makes reusable professional grade ice packs that are completely safe for the entire family.....yes even the dog.

    Do you sell Wholesale Direct or Offer Professional Discounts?

    International distributors welcome.

    CAN I use my FSA/HSA FUNDS TO PURCHASE ActiveWrap?

    Yes! You can use your HSA/FSA dollars to purchase eligible products on activewrap.com using the Sika Health payment method. All eligible products will say HSA/FSA eligible under the Product Description. When you add HSA/FSA eligible products to your cart, you can select the “SIKA| Pay with HSA/FSA” payment method and follow the instructions. No receipts, no reimbursements, no hassle. 

    2. What happens if I have both HSA/FSA eligible items and ineligible items in my cart? 

     If you have a mixed basket of eligible and ineligible products, Sika Health makes this very easy. When you select the “Sika | Pay with HSA/FSA” payment method at checkout, your cart will automatically be split into an eligible and ineligible subtotal. You can then add the appropriate payment method for each subtotal. Sika Health will handle the rest! 

    3. What if I don't have enough money in my HSA/FSA account to cover my purchase amount? 

    Not to worry! Sika Health can check your available HSA/FSA balance, charge that amount, and allow you to provide a backup credit or debit card to handle the rest. Enter your card details like normal and follow the prompts from Sika Health! 

    4. What if I don’t have an HSA/FSA debit card? Can I still use Sika Health? 

    Yes! If you would like to redeem your HSA/FSA funds for a purchase on our website and you don’t have an HSA/FSA card, you can choose Sika and pay with a normal credit or debit card. As long as one of the items in your cart is eligible, you will receive an email from Sika Health detailing the items, the card used, and a compliant itemized receipt attached. In this email will be everything you need to redeem your purchase for HSA/FSA dollars, including the proper receipt to submit to your HSA/FSA administrator. Download the itemized receipt and upload it to your HSA/FSA administrator to get reimbursed for your qualifying items.

    5. My payment didn’t go through with Sika Health, why is that? 

    There are a few potential reasons why this may happen. It’s possible your HSA/FSA card has not yet been activated, or that you are attempting to purchase ineligible products with an HSA/FSA card. If you believe it is something other than that, please reach out to support@sikahealth.com.

    6. What is an HSA or FSA?

    A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a pre-tax account that lets you set aside money for qualified healthcare expenses. Typically, you can sign up for an HSA when you sign up for a High Deductible Health Plan. These accounts are individually owned so the funds roll over each year and you can take them if you leave your job.

    A Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA) is an employer-offered benefit plan that lets you set aside money for qualified healthcare expenses. You can sign up for an FSA if your employer offers this option. It’s important to remember that FSA funds do not roll over at the end of the year (unless your employer allows it) and they immediately are returned to your employer if you leave your job. Spending with your pre-tax HSA/FSA funds helps you to save 30% to 50% on qualified health expenses. And we’re here to help you maximize your savings.

    Ice Machine or ActiveWrap Ice Wrap After Surgery?

    Why choose an ActiveWrap Ice Wrap solution with Long Duration Ice instead of an ice machine after surgery?

    Motorized cold therapy units/Ice therapy machines are not covered by insurance. So why pay more for the same therapy an ActiveWrap can provide? Consider these ActiveWrap benefits below:

    Better Value: Unlike costly ice machines that are often rented or used only for a few weeks, ActiveWrap® is a one-time purchase at a fraction of the cost of a motorized cold therapy unit and you’ll own and use for years.

    Mobility & Comfort: Stay active while recovering—our ice wraps let you move around without being tethered to a machine, with hoses and electrical cords. Movement helps reduce stiffness and promote circulation.

    Ease of Use: No messy refills, hoses, plugs, pads or complicated setup. Just freeze ActiveWrap ice packs, stick and secure them into your support and start the relief.

    Proven Patient Choice: Many patients are told to buy an ice machine by their healthcare provider, but end up ditching it for a more convenient solution such as ActiveWrap® for lasting therapy and relief.
