Guest guest Posted March 8, 2000 Report Share Posted March 8, 2000 This might be a longshot, but it sounds sort of like those things you give a baby when s/he's teething. You keep them in the fridge and then the baby can gum it to relieve the pain. Maybe check the baby section? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2000 Report Share Posted March 9, 2000 I mentioned a reusable gel pack that can be frozen and placed on the back of your neck. I found it at Long's (No. California) and it sells for $2.99. Also, there was a cloth and velcro holder for a pack like this for use during exercise. I didn't mention this, but another person did. I wish I could remember who it was. I was interested in buying it myself.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2000 Report Share Posted March 9, 2000 There is a similar reusable gel pack called " Ace reusable cold compress " which is in most drug stores and Wal-Mart for about the same price, and works great on the back of the neck. I haven't checked to see if Ace sells a cloth/velcro holder. One option is to wrap the gel pack inside a small towel while exercising, which keeps it cold longer.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2000 Report Share Posted March 9, 2000 Hi, I purchased one of these ties last summer and loved it! It really helped keep me cool and didn't make my shirt feel damp, like other brands I've tried. It was called a " Cobber. " The address for the company is: http://www.rockisland.com/cobber .

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 I remember the e-mail. I looked to see if I kept it, but I did not. Maybe it is on the rosacea site with all the messages. I think you can sort by topic there. The Sharper Image has a neck item that you wear around you neck to cool you. It is about $30-$40, I think. Go to their web site - it still may be there.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2000 Report Share Posted March 11, 2000 I have a couple of those gel packs that you all are talking about. They are called Cool Thing. I got mine from QVC. They were about $20 for two. Marji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
