Ice It!® MaxCOMFORT™ System (Model 530) Size: Medium
Ice It! MaxCOMFORT™ System — Medium Cold Therapy Wrap (Model 530)
A convenient, versatile cold therapy system specifically designed for the neck, shoulders, back, and wrist. One 6" × 9" cold pack inside a plush insulated fabric cover with an adjustable elastic strap for hands-free, targeted therapy. Cold packs freeze in just 20 minutes, stay flexible when frozen, and maintain temperature longer than generic ice packs. Non-toxic, latex-free, reusable. Packs also microwaveable for hot therapy.
Designed for Four Problem Areas — One Versatile System
The Model 530 is the medium size-based Ice It! system — compact enough for targeted therapy on the neck and wrist, generous enough to cover the back and shoulders. The single 6" × 9" pack stays flexible at freezer temperature, conforming to body contours rather than sitting rigidly. The adjustable elastic strap holds everything in place so therapy doesn’t interrupt your day.
About the Ice It! MaxCOMFORT Model 530
The Model 530 is the medium Ice It! system in the size-based MaxCOMFORT line — sitting between the compact joint-specific wraps (510, 512, 516, 570) and the large 540 and extra-large 550. At 6" × 9" the cold pack provides targeted coverage on the neck or wrist, and can span a section of the back or shoulder when positioned with the elastic strap.
The Ice It! cold packs freeze in just 20 minutes and remain fully flexible — they mold to the contour of the neck, shoulder, or wrist rather than sitting like a rigid block. The gel fill maintains temperature longer than generic ice packs. The plush fabric cover with foam cushion protects skin from hypothermia-related tissue damage and prevents condensation from wetting clothes. The cover is fully removable and machine-washable.
The same pack can be microwaved for hot therapy in 30-second cycles — one system, both modalities. If you need continuous therapy, keep a spare 6" × 9" pack in the freezer for rotation.

Cold Therapy Safety
- Always use the fabric cover — never apply cold packs directly to bare skin for extended periods
- Apply for 15–20 minutes per session; allow skin to return to normal temperature before reapplying
- When microwaving for hot therapy, heat in 30-second cycles only — check between each cycle
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Model 530 designed for?
The Model 530 is specifically designed for the neck, shoulders, back, and wrist. The single 6" × 9" cold pack inside the plush fabric cover is compact enough for the neck and wrist, and large enough to cover a section of the back or shoulder when held in place with the elastic strap.
How does the Model 530 differ from the larger 540 and 550 systems?
The Model 530 Medium has one 6" × 9" cold pack for targeted therapy on the neck, shoulder, back, or wrist. The Large 540 has two packs in a 6" × 18" cover for wider back and hip coverage. The Extra-Large 550 has three packs in a 9" × 20" cover for full back, hip, and abdomen coverage — and is large enough to wrap around a knee. Choose the 530 for more targeted, portable therapy.
Does the cold pack stay flexible when frozen?
Yes. The cold pack remains fully flexible at normal freezer temperature. It molds around the contour of the neck, wrist, or shoulder rather than sitting like a rigid block, improving contact and cold penetration into the painful area.
Can the cold pack also be used for heat therapy?
Yes. Microwave in 30-second cycles, checking between each to avoid overheating. Use cold for the first 48–72 hours after acute injury; switch to heat for chronic stiffness and muscle tension after the acute phase passes. Alternating hot and cold may stimulate circulation — consult your doctor.
Is the fabric cover machine washable?
Yes. The fabric cover is fully removable and machine-washable to maintain freshness and appearance. The plush fabric with foam cushion is soft on sensitive skin, insulated to retain cold temperature longer, and protects skin from hypothermia-related tissue damage while preventing condensation from wetting clothes.
Can I buy a replacement cold pack for this system?
Yes. The Model 530 uses a 6" × 9" cold pack. The D-Pack Single (Model 585) and B-Pack Single (Model 520) are both 6" × 9" and work as replacements. Keep a spare in the freezer for continuous rotation during longer therapy sessions.
