Description
Dr. Aktive Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap – Reinforced 82cm Cold Compression Therapy
The Dr. Aktive Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap is an extended-length, reinforced cold compression therapy accessory designed for use with the Cryo Pro XL Control Unit. Measuring 82 cm (32.3 inches) in length, the XL Full Long Leg Wrap provides extensive coverage across the leg, making it a suitable option for prescribed rehabilitation programmes requiring cooling and intermittent compression over a larger treatment area. The wrap is specifically designed for the higher-capacity Cryo Pro XL system, which features a larger water reservoir and increased pressure capacity compared with the standard Cryo Pro Control Unit.
Its reinforced construction is intended to accommodate the XL system's enhanced performance, while the adjustable wraparound design helps maintain contact with the selected treatment area. The manufacturer also specifies an additional adjustable pressure pump supplied with the Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap, allowing extra compression to be tailored to the user's requirements.
When connected to the compatible XL Control Unit, chilled water circulates through the wrap while intermittent pneumatic compression is applied. This combination may help manage localised swelling and provide temporary relief from discomfort during appropriate post-operative rehabilitation and sports injury recovery.
The Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap is suitable for consideration in physiotherapy clinics, orthopaedic rehabilitation departments, sports medicine facilities and supervised home recovery programmes.
Please note: This product includes the Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap and its additional adjustable pressure pump as described in manufacturer literature. The Cryo Pro XL Control Unit is required for operation and is sold separately.
Extended 82cm Leg Coverage
The Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap is designed for rehabilitation programmes requiring extensive lower-limb treatment coverage. At 82 cm in length, it is longer than the standard 63.5 cm Full Leg Wrap. This additional length may be useful for individuals who require cooling and compression across a larger area of the leg.
The wrap can be positioned to cover the selected treatment area, with the exact anatomical coverage depending on the user's leg dimensions and the way it is fitted. The XL designation refers to its reinforced construction and compatibility with the XL system, rather than a greater length than the standard Full Long Leg Wrap.
Reinforced Construction for Cryo Pro XL
The Cryo Pro XL system offers increased pressure capacity and a larger reservoir compared with the standard Cryo Pro. The XL Full Long Leg Wrap has been developed for use with this higher-capacity equipment. Its reinforced design makes it the recommended Full Long Leg Wrap for the Cryo Pro XL system.
- Reinforced construction for the Cryo Pro XL
- Designed for the XL system's higher pressure capacity
- Extended 82 cm leg coverage
- Adjustable wraparound design
- Circulating chilled water therapy
- Intermittent pneumatic compression
- Additional adjustable pressure pump
- Suitable for prescribed lower-limb rehabilitation
Additional Adjustable Pressure Pump
The manufacturer states that the Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap is supplied with an additional adjustable pressure pump. This accessory is intended to provide extra compression for the large wrap and allows pressure to be adjusted according to the user's requirements. The pump is an additional component of the wrap system and does not replace the Cryo Pro XL Control Unit. The control unit remains essential for chilled water circulation and the main treatment programmes.
Cold Compression Therapy for the Lower Limb
The Cryo Pro XL system combines circulating cold water with intermittent pneumatic compression. This may help manage localised swelling and provide temporary relief from discomfort following appropriate injuries or surgical procedures. The extended wrap is designed for use where a larger area of the leg requires treatment. Potential applications include selected rehabilitation programmes involving the knee, thigh and surrounding lower-limb tissues. Treatment should always follow professional advice.
Suitable for Post-Operative Rehabilitation
The Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap may be considered following certain orthopaedic procedures where cold compression has been recommended.
- Knee replacement rehabilitation
- ACL reconstruction recovery
- Selected knee surgery programmes
- Certain lower-limb soft tissue procedures
- Other appropriate orthopaedic rehabilitation programmes
The longer wrap may be particularly useful where the prescribed treatment area extends beyond the knee. The appropriate temperature, compression level and session duration should be determined by the treating healthcare professional.
Suitable for Sports Injury Recovery
The XL Full Long Leg Wrap may also be useful in selected sports rehabilitation programmes.
- Suitable knee ligament injuries
- Selected thigh muscle strains
- Localised lower-limb swelling
- Appropriate muscle and soft tissue injuries
- Multi-area leg rehabilitation programmes
Cold compression should be used only where suitable for the type and stage of injury.
Adjustable Wraparound Fit
The Cryo Pro XL Full Long Leg Wrap features an adjustable wraparound design. This allows the wrap to be positioned around the leg and secured to provide appropriate treatment coverage. The fit should be secure without excessive tightness or discomfort. The manufacturer recommends a thin protective layer of clothing between the wrap and skin.
Optional Cryo Pro XL Dual-Hose Therapy
The Cryo Pro XL Control Unit supports an optional dual-hose accessory that allows two compatible wraps to be connected simultaneously. This may be useful for certain rehabilitation programmes involving more than one treatment area. However, simultaneous use of two large Full Long Leg Wraps has not been specifically confirmed. The suitability of a particular combination should be checked with the supplier and treating healthcare professional. The Dual Hose and any second wrap are sold separately.
Nine Selectable Treatment Programmes
The Cryo Pro XL Control Unit offers nine selectable treatment programmes. These combine three compression settings with three treatment durations.
- Low: 20, 40 or 60 minutes
- Medium: 20, 40 or 60 minutes
- High: 20, 40 or 60 minutes
The manufacturer generally recommends sessions of approximately 20–40 minutes with appropriate breaks, subject to professional guidance. The wrap itself does not independently control the treatment programme.
Simple Ice and Water Operation
The Cryo Pro XL system operates using ice, water and a compatible power source. Once the reservoir has been prepared, the Full Long Leg Wrap is connected to the control unit using the appropriate hose. The user then selects the recommended programme. The manufacturer's general guidance identifies a treatment temperature of approximately 4–15°C, subject to clinical advice.
Cleaning and Maintenance
After treatment, residual water should be removed from the wrap according to the manufacturer's instructions. The separately available Cryo Pro Drain Gadget can help with this process. The wrap should be cleaned, dried and stored as recommended. In professional healthcare environments, suitable infection prevention procedures should also be followed.
