My Personal Experience
I bought the RecoveryTherm Cube because I realized that as I age, I need to start taking recovery a little more seriously. And also, who doesn’t love cool gadgets? The unit is packaged very nicely. After I charged it (which takes roughly an hour) I tried it for the first time. I was very impressed. I mostly wanted it for my legs and knees, so using the shorter strap was perfect for that application. The longer strap would be for placing the unit on your back, chest, or shoulders.
The best feature of the RecoveryTherm Cube is how it can heat up and cool down . The temperature change is instant. There are 3 settings for cold and hot:
Cold: low – 46 degrees F, medium – 54 degrees F and high – 61 degrees F
Hot: Low – 95 degrees F, Medium – 102 degrees F and High – 109 degrees F
and 1 setting for Contrast Therapy: 46°F for cold and 109°F for heat. The low setting is gentle, but the medium and high settings are very noticeable. My favorite feature is the contrast therapy, which is excellent for workout recovery.
