Review: ACE Brand Products

**Product was received in exchange for an honest review**

The most common forms of injuries are sprains and strains of muscles and tendons. The basic treatment to remember for these types of injuries is R.I.C.E. Therapy:

·         Rest: Stop the activity immediately. Continued stress can increase the damage done.

·         Ice: Apply an ACE Brand Reusable Cold Compress. Cold helps quickly relieve pain and swelling. The soft touch fabric contours to the body and remains flexible when cold.

·         Compression: Apply compression with an ACE Brand Self-Adhering Bandage. Compression helps reduce swelling and the bandage’s compact design makes it easy to throw in your bag when you are heading out for a day of activities.

·         Elevation: Elevate the injured limb above the level of the heart to help drain excess fluid from the area.

Our Thoughts

I have to start by saying that I absolutely love ACE Brand products! They always come in handy with the three boys that I have, especially the ice packs that are made by ACE Brand. 

ACE Brand sent two self-adhering elastic wraps (one - three inch width and one - four inch width) and a large cold compress. What impresses me is that the elastic wraps do not need to be taped or pinned to stay on and in place. This makes it so much easier to be able to keep the bandage on a squirming kiddo. 

The other thing that really impressed me was how thin the cold compress is. It being thin like it is means that it's able to manipulated easily. My husband, with his back issues, uses cold compresses more often than not and he can easily keep the new one in place on his lower back by just tucking it in his shirt. No need for him to be on the floor laying on the compress anymore! 

If you're looking for compresses and bandages for this winter season when accidents become greater, take a look at ACE Brand products!
