"I
am very pleased with my Polar Soft-Ice® SIVF Surgeon’s cooling
vest. It keeps me cool during surgery at my clinic. The unit is compact
and
works just as good or better than the huge $2600 unit that they have
available
for me to use at the hospital.

"I have
evaluated the Soft Ice cold packs and have
found these packs most suitable for general uses in sports medicine,
orthopedic, emergency room situations, and physical therapy
rehabilitation situations."

"We have
used Polar Soft-Ice® in our emergency room for over 10
years and have been well satisfied with the company and the product.
Recently we ran out of Soft-Ice® packs in the emergency room and
we were forced to use ice chips as our In House Department does. We
found the use of ice chips to be unacceptable compared to Soft-Ice®. Ice chips were messy, did not
conform to the target body part as well and were less convenient for
the staff. Ice chips just didn't work as well as Soft-Ice®.
We were glad to get our new shipment of Soft-Ice®."

“I love those little
(3”x8”) Soft
Ice cold packs,
they have been a great find for our clinic"
Malinda Bell, M.D., F.A.C.E.P., Emergency Physician;
Manistee, MI
“Most physicians
simply tell patients to “ice” an injured body part. But when the
physician becomes the patient, she learns how messy and inconvenient
most ice
packs can be—not to mention they simply don’t outlast the pain.
No
matter where you hurt, or why you hurt, pain takes your life
away.
When I blew out my knee I was not sleeping, in pain, and
frustrated that
nothing seemed to help. I purchased the Polar
2009 active therapy system and
now I call it my portable life support system—it provides
immediate,
continuous pain relief that is non-sedating and not addicting (unless
ice is a
vice!) I love this machine and it goes everywhere with me—day and
night.
Used as needed, intermittently, I find that I am more rested and
relaxed—I
thank you and I am sure my patients will thank you also!”

"Dr.
Craig
W. Longworth has been using ice packs made by Polar Products for eleven
years. He has found this product to be effective, of good quality,
and competitively priced. To promote our practice, Polar Products
recently started using a private labeling program. Each Soft-ice® is inscribed with the doctor and
our company name, address, and phone number. Soft-ice®
packs are given to all of our patients to help them with their pain."

"The
Polar cold pack products really work. They are large, have wide surface
area, and feel
very comfortable. The doctors and the customers, both like to
use them."

"I have been in practice for
over 36 years and have often used trigger point therapy techniques with
my
thumb and forefingers. In recent years I have not used this
modality
as much due to the discomfort it caused in my hands when employing
it. With
the Roller
Ice massage ball I have
reintroduced this technique to my practice. I find the Roller Ice
extremely comfortable to hold, therapeutic to my hands, and effective
at providing trigger point therapy."
Dr.
Louis
Bennett, Chiropractic Center of
Northfield, Northfield, OH
"I utilize trigger point therapy in my
practice as well as cold therapy. Roller
Ice has proved to be an
excellent tool for combining these therapies. I especially like
the "feel" of the devise when using it for trigger point
massage. With
the roller ball action I can locate trigger points and apply therapy as
I have been able to do before only with my own thumb and fingers."

"I
personally use the Thera-Temp® microwaveable moist heat pack and
find it to be the best and most effective source of moist heat heating
product available on the market. I have experienced the product to be
an effective method of relieving pain and increasing blood flow to the
affected areas of the body. The design and weight of the mineral beads
in the Thera-Temp® pack conforms well to the body,
and its natural cotton is very comfortable against the skin. This
product also holds its heat for periods longer than any other product
on the market that I have used. I highly recommend this product which
is
ideal for both office and home care."
Carol
Carlton,
B.A., M.T., 10
years, Akron, Ohio
“I found that Roller
Ice maintains its
temperature, which is colder than conventional cold therapy body tools.
This meant I could treat throughout the therapy session as needed
without leaving my client to go to the freezer.
The size of the roller ball
was perfect for accu-massage therapy.
The rubber reservoir fits the hand
nicely and it can be used without causing strain to the therapist's
hand or wrist.”

"The Kool
Max cooling vest
has helped to reduce the frequency and intensity of self injurious and
aggressive behaviors in the adults with developmental disabilities I
serve. The cooling vest has helped prevent
people from escalating into 'Fight or Flight' mode in the adults with
developmental disabilities I serve. The cooling vest
makes bus rides to work in the summer much more bearable and has cut
down on self injurious and aggressive behaviors in the adults with
developmental disabilities I serve."

Satisfied Consumers:
Beverly
Krause, Akron Ohio
“My
husband and I began using Polar Products Thera-Temp®
Moist Heat Wraps due to pains in our joints caused by arthritis, poor
circulation, and sciatic nerve conditions. I first purchased Polar’s
9”x18” moist heat pack with an elastic, Velcro ready belt. I find this
product to be effective at providing relief for my husband and I. These
Polar Moist Heat wraps are superior to heating pads in providing
relief.”
In
fact
Mrs. Krause liked our products so much she has recently purchased 8
additional moist heat wraps to give to friends as Christmas gifts!
Providing
relief from life's various aches and pains…that is the Polar
promise.

maybe helping with those holiday gift ideas while we are at it!

They work great both ways. Once again Thank You!”

"We have a van based traveling pizza
kitchen for fairs and such in the summer. This summer (2007) the
temperature outdoors got to 104 degrees, but inside the van it hit 120
degrees! Our manager in the van used a Polar cooling vest and it was a
life saver! We are very happy with this product. It works"

“I love the Polar
Kool Max vest. I have had MS for many
years
and I love to Bowl. I now wear this vest while bowling and it works
great”
Arnold Rubens,
Chicago, IL
“I am a businessman with
both MS and an intolerance to heat situations.
My occupation often presents me the opportunity to play a round of golf
with clients, which I love except for the fact that the heat
considerably worsens my symptoms. I had searched previously for a
cooling option that would allow me to play golf without overheating and
one that would be
somewhat unobtrusive (I frankly get tired of the questions and
explanations!).
I even asked my doctor without satisfaction and ultimate lycame to the
realization that such a solution did not exist. Then I discovered the Polar Kool Max vest. This
vest is lightweight and fits comfortably
under
my clothing. No one knows I am wearing it but me…and what's even more
amazing
is that it works! This vest totally minimizes the debilitating effect
heat
has on me.
I make a habit of not
recommending products – not even a movie, however
I have never felt so positive about a product. The Polar vest has made
a huge difference for me when entertaining clients and changed my
life.”
Charles Lacey,
Akron, OH
"The Polar cooling
vest really keeps me cool.
I have a life
outside my house. The vest is comfortable and easy to wear."
Tami Wolfsen, Goose
Creek, SC
"I have multiple
sclerosis & since HOT weather is MS enemy #1, I
have been on a "mission" for over 2 years trying to find ANYTHING that
will enable me to keep my body temperature cooler so I can enjoy
outdoor activities (or go outdoors at all!). Finally, THIS IS
IT!!! This one works! You don't have to be soaking wet or carry a
humongous fan around your neck! NO bells OR whistles.
This great fitting
(doesn't restrict arm movement), low profile,
lightweight, non-offensive looking, one size really does fit all
cooling vest is the answer. I love mine! Honestly, if you or someone
you care about gets TOO hot - buy this VEST.
You'll be SO glad you
did!!!"

Soft Ice Active Cooling Systems
Avigdor M.
Weizmann, Hendersonville, NC
"I am 39 years old and
have Multiple Sclerosis. Eight years ago my
condition made it impossible for me to continue my
working life. Until recently one of the most difficult symptoms of my
MS was intolerance to heat. I don't mean the usual summer heat, but
also the winter heating months. I have found that if the temperature is
over 70 degrees I become very fatigued, my vision worsens and my speech
becomes
difficult.
I had heard of "active
and passive" cooling therapy as a non-drug
treatment for these symptoms. I have had my "Soft-Ice" cooling vest
for several months now and honestly don't go a day without using it!
The system is so easy to use just add water, some ice and turn it on.
Instant relief! The amount of cooling can be adjusted easily and with
the battery pack I can take it with me anywhere and be in total comfort.
To everyone who may
suffer from heat intolerance, this is THE
product that will help. I wholeheartedly recommend the "Soft-Ice"
system
from Polar Product, Inc. You have a great product and your customer
service representatives are grade A+"
Maria Coppock,

Active cooling vest last year
and I love
it! It works great and I am able to do more activities now more than
ever! And the battery pack gives me mobility.”

“The evaporative
cooling hat and neck wrap
are fantastic! I went
kayaking recently with the temperature at 89 F. Despite my MS, I was
comfortable & able to paddle for 2 hours. These wraps enable me to
do the things I love without the incapacitating heat sensitivity”
Sports Wrap - Shoulder & Elbow
Wrap
"This wrap
works great! Our high school team loves it. It provides cool therapy
that goes right to the bone! Much better than the Bike wrap."
Kirby Twigg, Revenna Ohio
“I have
been looking for a shoulder & elbow wrap
for some time – Oshman’s
sporting goods store has a million wraps but they only had one or two
ice packs in them. The Polar wrap has 7 ice packs and truly covers the
entire shoulder and elbow. The wraps Oshman’s have, I told my wife, are
pointless because they cover the entire shoulder but only get cold in
one spot. The Polar wrap does the job!”

Body
Cooling systems & MG
(Myasthenia Gravis)
Carole J
Prosser, Merrill, Michigan
"I love
my Polar Kool Max vest!I am 69 years old and was diagnosed with MG in
2000. There are approximately 14 Myasthenics in every 100,000 of the
population. A primary aggravating factor in the Myasthenic, as in the
MS patient, is heat and humidity, and the raising of one's core body
temperature. Once I received the support of my neurologist I was able
to obtain a cooling vest from Polar. This wonderful cooling vest
has made my MG so much more manageable! I enthusiastically recommend
the Polar Products Cooling Vest to any and all MS or MG patients."

Jan Bennington, Akron, Ohio
“This is to let you know how
much I appreciate and thank you for helping me to find relief from pain
caused by arthritis and fibromyalgia. I recommend the Roller Ice
massage tool. I used this wonderful new devise and it brought an
instant relief to my
sore and crippling body parts. It isn't heavy or awkward to hold and
takes
15 minutes at the most to be mobile once again.”
Jerry S. Kelley,
Akron, Ohio
“My 7 year old grandson was visiting
recently and played briefly with my Roller Ice massage tool. He quickly
lost interest and went outside to play. It was 90 degrees outside and
after
about an hour he came back inside, went immediately to the freezer to
get
the Roller Ice. He sat and ran the roller Ice on his forehead about 15
minutes. He looked at me and said “Gampa, this is wonderful”!
