Elasto-Gel Sinus Mask

 

The Elasto-Gel™ Sinus Mask is designed to provide moist heat therapy or soothing cold therapy for relief of minor muscular and joint aches and pains. The hot or cold therapy will last 20 to 40 minutes per application. The product is held in place with hook and loop type closures, which allow the user to move about during therapy. The product is microwavable so it can provide nearly continuous heat therapy. When used cold, the product conforms to contours, even at -20°F (-30°C), allowing comfortable soothing cold applications.

 

The Sinus Mask is made with Elasto-Gel™, a patented gel with exceptional properties for transferring heat or soothing cold. If punctured, it will not leak and will remain usable. The unique combination of specially selected fabric and tough flexible gel provides an exceptional durable product for use in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, athletic facilities and the home.

 

Cold Therapy Directions: Store the mask in the freezer for a minimum of two (2) hours. It may be left in the freezer indefinitely until ready to use. It will remain flexible even at -20°F. Remove the mask prior to defrosting the freezer. Note: Always store products in a plastic bag while in freezer.

 

Hot Therapy Directions: The most convenient method of heating the mask is in a microwave oven. Suggested heating times: 600-700 watt microwave: 20-30 Seconds per side, 1100 watt: 10 Seconds per side. Note: all microwaves vary in heating and may have "hot spots". Be cautious when heating.

 

Wait one minute (60 seconds) before using. The mask should feel WARM to the touch, NOT HOT. Hold the mask firmly against the skin for 30 seconds before re-heating. If the mask is not warm enough, heat in 10 second increments and rotate the product each time.

 

The mask can also be heated in a conventional oven at 250°F for 10-15 minutes. Place mask on a cookie sheet or baking dish in the center of the oven. Do no allow straps to touch the heating element. Flip the mask after 6 minutes for even heating.

 

Cleaning Instructions: Remove the outside cover and hand wash in cold water and mild soap. Hang up to dry. Wipe the white inner cover with a damp (not wet) cloth using mild soap or disinfectant. Allow the product to fully air dry before continuing to use.
