What inspired you to create the ICY Med Pack?
After my surgery, I went to the doctor, and they told me I needed to ice the area every 20 minutes and change the bandage regularly. I asked why, and they explained that alternating between hot and cold could burn your skin. I had to keep icing it to reduce the bruising and swelling. So, I came up with the Icy Med Pack because the doctor said, "You need to build a better mousetrap." I thought, "Okay, I will!"
 

What was the biggest challenge you encountered in developing this product?
The biggest challenge I encountered in developing the product was figuring out how to apply it directly to the skin without causing irritation, rashes, or burns. I worked on this for almost five years, and now here we are!
 

What makes the Icy Med Pack different from traditional ice packs?
You can put the Icy Med Pack directly on your skin, even though it’s 32 degrees, like an ice cube. But unlike ice cubes, it’s not uncomfortable or painful. This is the only ice pack that won’t hurt you. If you have sensitive skin, you can wrap it in a paper towel, and you won’t get soaked. Plus, unlike other ice packs where you have to change them every 20 minutes, I can leave this one on all night. It reduces bruising, swelling, and capillaries while increasing blood flow, which helps you heal faster.
 

How does consistent temperature benefit users? Consistent temperature benefits users yet most ice packs warm up over time, so I’ve included a one-way valve in the Icy Med Pack. This valve releases the hot air that builds up, which keeps the pack colder for longer. So, even after 20 minutes, you can release the air and the pack gets even colder.
 

What type of feedback have you had about your Icy Med Pack?
The feedback has been amazing. People say it’s the best ice pack they’ve ever used. Many have thrown away their old ice packs because nothing compares to this one.
 

Can you share some examples of how people use the Icy Med Pack?
Besides the human body, animals, coolers, and lunch boxes.

Who benefits most by using the Icy Med Pack? Anyone who uses traditional ice packs will benefit from the Icy Med Pack because it reduces swelling and temporarily relieves sore muscles, aching joints, sprains, post-surgery pain, chronic pain, insect bites, arthritis, headaches, fever, and even menopause symptoms. There are countless reasons this product could help
