ABSTRACT:
An ice cooling apparatus and method therefor that comprise a number of ice pockets slideably attached to an adjustable strap for securing them in place around a wearer's body. By positioning the ice pockets on the painful areas, a wearer is assured of continuous contact and cooling effect, with the attendant benefits resulting from ice treatment. Because the apparatus is strapped around the wearer's body, it is not necessary to use one's hands to keep it in place, thus allowing the wearer to be freed from the usual constraint of having to hold the ice bag on the sore site.
