Aircast Back, Hip, and Rib Cryo/Cuff with Gravity Cooler
The Aircast Back, Hip, and Rib Cryo/Cuff is a clinical-grade solution for managing pain and swelling in the torso and pelvic regions. Unlike small, localized ice packs, this large-format cuff is designed to provide broad, 360-degree therapeutic coverage. By combining the benefits of controlled compression and focalized cold, the system works to significantly reduce inflammation and accelerate recovery from surgeries or acute injuries.
Do you need help configuring the cuff for a specific hip or lower back recovery plan? Call 866-218-0902 to speak with a bracing and cold therapy specialist.
Quick Summary
- 3-in-1 Versatility: One cuff is designed to adapt to the lower back, hip joint, or rib cage for multi-purpose use.
- Dual-Action Therapy: Provides simultaneous cold and compression to maximize the reduction of deep-tissue swelling.
- Gravity-Fed Simplicity: No motors or electricity required—simply raise the cooler to fill the cuff and lower it to refresh the water.
- 8-Hour Relief: The insulated gravity cooler maintains ice-water temperatures for extended, uninterrupted treatment sessions.
- Universal Fit: Features adjustable straps that accommodate a wide range of waist and torso sizes (up to 45 inches).
Targeted Relief for Core Injuries
The Back/Hip/Rib Cryo/Cuff is specifically engineered to handle the high-volume cooling needs of the core muscle groups. Whether you are recovering from a hip replacement, spinal surgery, or fractured ribs, the large surface area of this cuff ensures that chilled water is distributed evenly across the affected area. The integrated compression helps to drive the cold deeper into the tissue, providing faster and more effective pain relief than traditional ice bags.
Because the system is non-motorized, it is completely silent, making it an ideal choice for use during rest or while sleeping in a reclined position. The quick-disconnect valve allows you to fill the cuff and then detach from the cooler, giving you the freedom to move or adjust your position without interrupting the therapy.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can this be used for both the left and right hip?
Yes. The symmetrical design and adjustable straps allow the cuff to be positioned comfortably on either the left or right hip, as well as centered on the lower back.
How does the "Back" fitment work?
The cuff is placed horizontally across the lumbar region and secured with the long straps. The compression from the water weight helps the cuff mold to the curve of the spine for direct contact.
What if I need a larger size for my waist?
The standard cuff fits up to a 45-inch waist. For larger users, an Aircast XL Strap Kit (sold separately) can be added to extend the reach of the fasteners.
