This listing is for the cuff only. The Aircast cooling system and accessories are not included.
The Aircast Hand/Wrist Cryo Cuff is a reusable cold therapy wrap designed to deliver targeted cold distribution to the hand and wrist when connected to a compatible Aircast cryotherapy system. The anatomically shaped cuff wraps around the hand and wrist to provide consistent cold coverage across the treatment area, and the reusable construction makes it suitable for repeated therapy sessions throughout a recovery program. Cuff only — compatible Aircast cooling system sold separately.
What Aircast systems is this cuff compatible with?
This cuff is designed for use with compatible Aircast cryotherapy systems — such as the Aircast Cryo/Cuff system and similar Aircast cold therapy units that use the standard Aircast cuff connector. Confirm your specific Aircast system model is compatible with this cuff before ordering. If you are unsure of your system's compatibility, contact us with your Aircast system model number for confirmation.
Why is cold therapy used for hand and wrist injuries?
Cold therapy (cryotherapy) reduces pain and swelling by constricting blood vessels at the treatment site, which limits the flow of inflammatory fluid into the injured tissue. It also temporarily reduces nerve conduction velocity, which decreases the perception of pain in the treated area. For hand and wrist injuries — which are often associated with significant soft tissue swelling that can limit range of motion and function — targeted cold therapy applied consistently in the early stages of recovery helps manage pain and swelling more effectively than ice packs, which lose temperature quickly and do not conform well to the complex contours of the hand and wrist.
How is this cuff different from a standard ice pack or gel wrap?
A standard ice pack or gel wrap provides cold therapy through direct contact with the skin surface but loses temperature relatively quickly and does not conform precisely to the contours of the hand and wrist. The Aircast cuff is connected to a cryotherapy system that circulates cold water through the cuff at a consistent temperature, maintaining therapeutic cold for the duration of the treatment session without the temperature fluctuations of a melting ice pack. The anatomically shaped cuff also provides more consistent cold distribution across the hand and wrist than a flat pack that cannot conform to the curved surfaces of these structures.
How do I care for and store the cuff between uses?
After each use, disconnect the cuff from the cooling system and allow it to air dry completely before storing. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth if needed — do not submerge the cuff or expose the connector to water. Store in a clean, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Inspect the cuff before each use for signs of wear, cracking, or damage to the bladder or connector, and replace if the cuff shows signs of deterioration that could affect performance or hygiene.
