Description
Dr. Aktive Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap – Reinforced Cold Compression Therapy
The Dr. Aktive Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap is a specially designed cold compression therapy accessory developed for use with the higher-capacity Cryo Pro XL Control Unit. Providing extended cooling and intermittent pneumatic compression along the leg, the wrap is suitable for prescribed post-operative rehabilitation, physiotherapy and appropriate sports injury recovery programmes.
Measuring 63.5 cm (25 inches) in length, the Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap provides extensive treatment coverage, making it a practical choice for users requiring cold compression over a larger area of the lower limb. The XL version is specifically designed for the enhanced performance of the Cryo Pro XL system and is supplied with an additional adjustable pressure pump, allowing the user to tailor the wrap's fit and compression comfort according to the manufacturer's instructions.
When connected to the Cryo Pro XL Control Unit, chilled water circulates through the wrap while intermittent pneumatic compression is applied. This combination may help manage localised swelling, relieve discomfort and support an appropriate rehabilitation programme. The Cryo Pro XL system also supports optional dual-hose operation, allowing two compatible therapy wraps to be connected simultaneously where clinically appropriate.
Please note: This product includes the Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap with its dedicated adjustable pressure pump. The Cryo Pro XL Control Unit and connection hose are required for operation and are sold separately unless specifically included in a package.
Designed for the Cryo Pro XL System
The Cryo Pro XL Control Unit features a larger water reservoir and increased pressure capacity compared with the standard Cryo Pro. The XL Full Leg Wrap has been developed specifically for use with this higher-capacity system. Its design provides extended lower-limb coverage while accommodating the requirements of the Cryo Pro XL.
- Specifically designed for the Cryo Pro XL Control Unit
- Extended cold compression coverage along the leg
- 63.5 cm wrap length
- Additional adjustable pressure pump
- Adjustable fit and compression comfort
- Compatible with circulating cold water therapy
- Suitable for intermittent pneumatic compression
- Optional dual-hose treatment capability
Additional Adjustable Pressure Pump
An important feature of the Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap is its dedicated adjustable pressure pump to provide extra compression for the larger wrap. This allows additional adjustment of the wrap's pressure and fit, helping the user achieve an appropriate level of comfort during treatment. The pump is an adjustment accessory to the therapy wrap and does not replace the Cryo Pro XL Control Unit. The control unit remains responsible for circulating chilled water and delivering the system's programmed intermittent pneumatic compression. The additional pressure should only be adjusted according to the manufacturer's instructions and the user's clinical requirements.
Extended Cold Compression Coverage
The Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap is designed to provide cooling and compression across an extended section of the lower limb. Its 63.5 cm length makes it particularly useful where treatment is required over a larger area than a conventional knee or ankle wrap can cover. When connected to the compatible control unit, the wrap may help:
- Manage localised lower-limb swelling
- Relieve discomfort following suitable injuries
- Support prescribed post-operative rehabilitation
- Provide cooling over a larger treatment area
- Assist appropriate muscle and soft tissue injury recovery
- Reduce the need to repeatedly reposition conventional ice packs
Actual treatment coverage depends on the user's leg dimensions and how the wrap is positioned. Cold compression is a supportive therapy and does not replace medical treatment or prescribed rehabilitation.
Suitable for Post-Operative Lower-Limb Rehabilitation
The Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap may be suitable for patients who have been advised to use extended cold compression following certain orthopaedic procedures. Potential applications include selected recovery programmes following:
- Knee replacement surgery
- Knee ligament reconstruction
- Lower-limb soft tissue procedures
- Certain orthopaedic operations
- Other suitable lower-limb surgery
The wrap may be particularly useful where swelling and discomfort affect an extended area of the leg. Treatment should follow the instructions of the surgeon or rehabilitation team.
Cold Compression for Sports Injury Recovery
The Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap may also be suitable for prescribed sports injury rehabilitation.
- Thigh muscle strains
- Selected ligament injuries
- Lower-limb soft tissue injuries
- Localised muscular swelling
- Appropriate sports-related leg discomfort
The suitability of cold compression depends on the nature and stage of injury. Unexplained swelling, suspected blood clots, severe pain or significant circulatory problems require medical assessment before compression is applied.
Compatible with Optional Cryo Pro XL Dual-Hose Therapy
The Cryo Pro XL Control Unit supports an optional dual-hose arrangement. This allows two compatible therapy wraps to be connected simultaneously. Where approved by the manufacturer and clinically appropriate, this may allow treatment of two lower-limb areas during the same session. For example, a clinician may recommend using compatible wraps on both legs.
The dual hose and second therapy wrap are optional accessories. Compatibility and suitable treatment configurations should be confirmed before purchase. The system should not be assumed to provide independent treatment settings for each connected wrap.
Adjustable Fit and Positioning
The Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap is designed to be positioned around the leg and secured during treatment. Its adjustable construction and dedicated pressure pump help the user achieve an appropriate fit.
- Extended treatment coverage
- Adjustable positioning
- Additional pressure adjustment
- Convenient use during seated or supported rehabilitation
- Practical application in professional treatment settings
The wrap should fit securely without excessive tightness, pain or restriction. A thin protective layer of clothing should be placed between the wrap and skin in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
Compatible with Nine Cryo Pro XL Treatment Programmes
The Cryo Pro XL Control Unit offers nine selectable treatment settings. These combine three compression levels with three session durations.
- Low: 20, 40 or 60 minutes
- Medium: 20, 40 or 60 minutes
- High: 20, 40 or 60 minutes
The control unit generates circulating cold water and intermittent pneumatic compression. The additional wrap pressure pump provides supplementary adjustment and should be used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Higher compression levels and longer sessions are not automatically more beneficial.
Simple Ice and Water Cooling
The Cryo Pro XL system operates using ice, water and a suitable power supply. The Full Leg Wrap is connected to the control unit using the a0ppropriate hose. Once the reservoir has been prepared, the user selects the prescribed treatment programme. The manufacturer's general guidance recommends a treatment temperature of approximately 4–15°C, subject to clinical advice.
Easy to Drain and Maintain
After treatment, residual water can be removed using the appropriate Cryo Pro draining accessory.The wrap and its adjustable pressure pump should be maintained according to the manufacturer's instructions.Regular cleaning, draining and drying help prepare the equipment for storage and subsequent use.For equipment used in professional healthcare environments, appropriate infection prevention procedures should also be followed.
The Cryo Pro XL Full Leg Wrap may be suitable for:
- Physiotherapy clinics
- Orthopaedic rehabilitation departments
- Sports medicine facilities
- Private hospitals

The wrap must be used with compatible equipment and where cold compression is appropriate for the individual.
