Elasto-Gel Therapy Wraps are especially suited for use in the home, on the athletic field, or in a health care facility, because the patient can move about once the wrap is secured in place. The wraps are designed for simultaneous application of pressure and hot or cold therapy. Due to the nature of the glycerine base gel, no rehydration is necessary even after many heat applications. These properties make this line of products the first choice of many Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation clinics. Many patients contact SWT to purchase a product for home use, after therapy in the professional clinic. Often they will purchase a second product for use away from home or to give to someone with a chronic problem.
Elasto-Gel Cast & Splint Padding/Contact Media
Elasto-Gel Cast & Splint Padding/Contact Media is a soft gel, which will absorb and transmit water very similar to human skin. Because of the high Glycerine content and the relatively low water content, this gel structure will not dry out and will not macerate healthy tissue, therefore it can be applied directly to healthy tissue and be kept in place for long periods of time. These properties make it an ideal padding and cushioning device. It has proven to be extremely useful for many applications where protection is needed from friction, shock and pressure.
It has been reported that this product is effective under cast, splints, braces and pressure garments. It is also reported to be a cost effective method of scar management.
