Relief Genius Cold Therapy Socks & Hand Ice Pack Cooling Gloves for Chemotherapy Neuropathy, Chemo Care Package for Women and Men, Large

I am currently undersgoing chemo treatment. Cold therapy was a recommendation of my oncologist from a very large well-known cancer center on the East Coast. Since I have just started and only had a few treatments thus far 2 out of 12 I have given these a 4/5 rating. At the end of treatment and no nuerophy I will be back to rate these a 5. -:To start they are a nice dark black color. - Matches all my comfy outfits. I purchased a 4 pack of white cotton gloves made by Cool job here at Amazon. To offer a little comfort from the cold. They have worked well. I can see myself in the future using them for a cover for hand cream over night. The black color of the mitts have not rubed off onto the white gloves. -:The cold therapy boots I wear with plush fussy socks under neath. I wear I woman's size 10 to 11 and they fit well but snug. Not sure they will fit much larger. The mitts I feel arecbigger in comparison to the boots. They are roomier. - The night before treatment I place them in the freezer . I do not take out the freezer packs inside the mitts and booties to freeze. In stead place them as they came. The booties fold up flat so along with the mitts they do not take up much space in your freezer. They freeze up nice but a bit heavy and I think the socks and mitts being frozen add a bit of comfort when wearing and an added protection to keep the ice packs inside them colder for longer. - I purchased a black cooler for transport that has a large section on bottom with a space to add an ice pack in a designated slot at the top. The cooler has a top section I put a few snacks in such as yougurt and graoes. The center offers plenty of snack , drinks and small meals btw . It is a few hours that they stay in the cooler before I actually have to use them and they a still plenty frozen when I go to put them on for treatment. -:I am able to put these mitts and socks on by myself. - I also think these socks might be good for when your feet are just tired when at home and not going through chemo treatment. - I am able to walk in these booties if I need to use the restroom. I am just loving these so far and so glad I I selected this exact pair. I will try and come back and update my review when my chemo has ended and tell you how they held up and if they helped to prevent neopathy.

Product worked well. Definitely recommend a second pair depending on what you need it for. Fit was good. When they started to get warm, we placed them in a cooler with ice packs and that did help, you can travel with them but grab the ice packs.

Good product to help keep hands and feet cold. Ice packs last for a while.

These ice packs don't come with any directions and the nurses at my chemotherapy treatment center do not help patients with these products. I got the intital stages of frostbite on my hands the first time I used them and it took 3 months for the two middle fingers on both hands to heal and have feeling again. The next times I wore them I wore thin ski glove liners on my hands before putting on the frozen gel gloves and it helped alot. So beware-it was ironic that I bought them to prevent neuropathy from my chemo drugs and I CAUSED neuropathy from using this product without hand protection.

My sister loved using these for her chemo sessions!! would buy again
