Why choose Polar Active Ice 3.0 Cold Therapy Ice Machine System?

  • Specifically designed to deliver drug-free pain relief after injury or post-surgery, when serious pain relief is required
  • Whisper-quiet, high-efficiency pump circulates cold water throughout the therapy pad
  • Customize your cold therapy on and off cycles with the programmable timer and temperature flow control
  • Active Ice's superior cooling reservoirs outperform competitors by holding more ice or frozen water bottles. With twice the size, they offer double the capacity, ensuring longer-lasting cold therapy, allowing you to get through the night without the hassle of frequent ice additions or bottle swaps
  • Use frozen water bottles instead of ice in our large cooling reservoirs. This convenient alternative is reusable, easily swapped from the freezer, and eliminates the need to drain melted water. The 9-quart reservoir holds six 500ml bottles, and the 16-quart reservoir holds twelve. Great for caregivers!
  • The programmable timer's easy on/off button enhances safety by eliminating the need to fumble in the dark to plug or unplug your system
  • The cooler lid on the system is hinged and snaps in place, keeping it properly sealed
  • The therapy pad offers comfortable cold therapy with gentle compression, optimizing the cooling effect on the target body part through its insulated outer fabric
  • Comfortable and easy to reuse time and time again; simply add ice and water to the cooler
  • High-flow, dry, quick-disconnect couplings allow for freedom of movement if needed


Note: Polar Active Ice 3.0 Cold Therapy Ice Machine System is non-returnable due to hygiene purposes.

How to use Polar Ice Machine?

Instructions for the use of Universal Therapy Bladder

  1. Do not turn the polar ice therapy machine on until all connections are complete and the hose from the cooler to the wrap is free from bends or restrictions
  2. Place the bladder over the targeted area with the smooth side toward the skin. Always use this bladder with a protective layer of fabric between the bladder and the skin
  3. Use the elastic belt, tab, or compression wrap to hold the bladder in place comfortably. Place the bladder on the target body part and hold it in place with the elastic strap
  4. Connect the bladder tubes to the Polar Ice Therapy Machine tubes with the quick-connect couplings. Depress the tab on the female coupling first, then press the system coupling into the bladder coupling until you hear a click sound. This click is the sound of the couplings connecting and locking into place
  5. Be sure the hoses are not restricted or bent, as this will restrict water flow through the entire system

  • Once every 2 weeks, pour 16 ounces of Isopropyl (Rubbing) Alcohol in the reservoir with the ice and water while the system is in use

    Does an excellent job. You

    Does an excellent job. You don't have to keep changing the ice since it pumps the cold water through the pad on your knee. The water is in a foam cooler and therefore it keeps the water cold for a lot longer.
