Prevention, immediate treatment and active recovery with Cold2Sport

Cold therapies are ideal for muscle prevention and recovery. The therapeutic use of cold improves muscle readiness for the next event (Post-Mach), preventing muscle injuries (Pre-Mach).

The conclusions of the main scientific studies and meta-analyses based on thermal applications for sports conclude that cold:

• Increases the speed of muscle relief and recovery
• Reduces muscle damage, reducing creatine kinase (CK) and Mb levels in the blood, reducing risks and preparing the muscle for the next event
• Appropriate application of heat transfer, between 10°C and 15°C
• More effective, immediately, in the post-Mach phase

Until now, athletes and physical therapists have followed cold therapies with ice, with the following negative consequences:

• Poor durability
• Poor thermal storage capacity, which requires constant replenishment
• Lack of thermal control (its melting point is permanently at 0°C).
• Excessive exposure of the athlete to ice temperatures causes damage to the skin, blood, tissues, and muscles.
• Excessive use of ice leads to high energy costs for its manufacture or ongoing acquisition costs.
• When ice thaws, it converts water into waste, constantly discarding a limited resource.

Unlike ice, Cold2Sport phase-change liquids offer unparalleled advantages:

• High thermal storage capacity, which implies a high level of cold stability and durability.
• Precise thermal control between 5°C and 10°C throughout the athlete’s therapy.
• Thermal transfer always at a positive temperature, mitigating risks to the athlete’s skin and blood.
• It can be recharged in a normal refrigerator, which does not require specific energy consumption.
• It does not require ongoing water consumption to produce ice, promoting its responsible use.

For all these reasons, Cold2Sport thermal garments become the perfect ally for high-performance athletes.
