Rent the NICE1 · Amputee

Cold + compression therapy for limb loss recovery

Recovery after amputation surgery brings its own challenges, swelling management matters for healing and for prosthetic fitting down the road, and standard ice packs aren't shaped for a residual limb. The NICE1 offers a purpose-made Leg Amputee wrap, plus the specialty Butterfly wrap, with circulating cold at a held temperature and gentle, even compression.

Recovery

What to expect

  • Swelling control is a central part of residual limb care, your surgical and rehabilitation team will set the plan for compression, positioning and cold.
  • Even, wrap-based compression conforms to the limb in a way flat ice packs can't.
  • Consistent cold therapy can help you stay comfortable between wound checks and rehab sessions.
  • Your care team's guidance on dressings, shaping and therapy always comes first.

General information, not medical advice. Your surgeon's plan always comes first.
