Kool thy fingers with thy fidget ice packs
said no guitarists… until they learn the secret
Ever experienced pain on fingertips after playing guitar, cello, bass, or harp? Have you ever applied superglue over ruptured blisters resulting from the same in order to continue to play? Perhaps you duct-tape finger blisters, to continue to row or golf? Do you get finger blisters from touching hot surfaces in workshop or kitchen?
Before Kool Fingers introduced fidget ice packs, a well-kept secret was known only to few musicians, sportspeople, craftspeople and chefs. That is, some of us have indeed been forestalling, for decades, the formation of painful blisters, ever since household freezers became commonplace.
Blisters are a result of plasma fluid pooling under the skin, when the body decides that it has sustained enough injuries from friction, compression or heat. And it turns out that holding a bag of frozen corns or frozen chicken nuggets can preempt their formation altogether.
But you don’t want to grab a slippery bag of corns for 15 minutes after every practice. That’s where Ice Gourd comes in. It is the first fidgetable ice pack ever made. You can purchase them at our Kool Fingers Amazon store.
When you feel painful swelling and inflammation on your fingers, simply grab a fidget ice pack to bring instant and soothing cold. It will ease the pain immediately. Grip the pack with fingers that require comforting. Fidget it to apply dynamic cold therapy – a brief cold shock followed by a warm-up break, and repeat. You will build useful calluses instead of blisters.
You may walk around, and even tend to other businesses with your free hand, all the while continuing to fidget absentmindedly the Ice Gourd.
Some people wear finger cots or finger protectors to avoid blisters, at the expense of a genuine playing experience. Some wear them despite blisters to continue playing. Why forgo genuine experiences, or deal with blisters, when you can have a genuine experience AND prevent blisters with a soothing cold therapy? Get a pair of patent-pending Ice Gourd, and build useful calluses instead.
Take these small and lightweight ice packs everywhere, and enjoy immediate relief after practicing your craft. A pack measures 4.5″ x 1.4″ x 1.2″, and weighs 2.82oz.
Blue gel is optimized to forestall finger blisters, with a sprinkle of superabsorbent polymer at 1:400. Green gel with food thickener methyl cellulose provides an initial cold shock that tapers off faster, thus less long-lasting compared to Blue gel. You may also refill with your own gel inventions. See the FAQs section.
Bottle shell is made of 100% BPA-free, food-grade HDPE. Simply wipe down after use, and refreeze for your next soothing cooling session.
At Kool Fingers, we make available hand-manipulated objects that no one else would bring to the market. Our first product, a fidget ice pack, epitomizes this mission. You can purchase them at our Kool Fingers Amazon store.
