Key features
Circulates cold water through a pad while an air pump provides adjustable compression. Breg states it is intended for post-surgical and acute injuries where cold and compression are indicated to reduce edema, swelling and pain.
- Combines two recovery modalities in one device.
- Designed to help manage pain, swelling and edema where cold and compression are indicated.
- Adjustable cold and compression settings provide a more customizable experience.
- Compact design is practical for home use and transport.
How it fits into your recovery
Cold and compression are most often used in the first weeks after a procedure, when swelling and soreness dominate. Renting covers exactly that window rather than leaving you with a unit you no longer need.
| Post-surgical orthopedic recovery | Where your provider has indicated cold and compression |
|---|---|
| Acute injuries | Where cold and compression are indicated |
| Recovery involving significant swelling | When managing edema is the main concern |
| A premium alternative to ice alone | When you want both modalities in one unit |
What renting this actually looks like
Five stages, and a person at Caliber involved in four of them. This is the part that separates us from buying a box online.
Request
You pick the equipment and rental period and send a request. Nothing is charged at this point.
Prepare
We check the motor, the controller and every strap, then set the unit to a neutral starting range.
Deliver
Delivered and assembled in the room you will actually use it in, usually beside a bed or sofa.
Use
Most people run two to three sessions a day. Your provider sets your settings. We leave a quick-start card with setup steps and when to stop.
Return
Call or text to extend weekly, or book a pickup. We collect from your door.
