Ice bags for injuries in Dublin city?

.ak

Anyone know where you can buy one of these in the city centre?



Tried some chemists/boots etc but no joy.

Physio Needs...but they're not a bricks 'n' mortar shop. Those Atlas bags would cost €10 plus €8 for the delivery.

Probably won't be any actual shops in city that would have them.

Cheers. If I can't find em elsewhere I'll grab it from them. I'm always picking up knocks/aggravating old injuries in matches and I'm really lazy when it comes to icing them because I hate the whole wrapping ice cubs in a bag/towel etc, but it makes a massive different when you do ice it. So having something like that should make a bit easier...

You should try those gel packs. Just leave 'em in a freezer and take out as needed. Work a charm for me.

I did think that but the website gives the impression that they were just online sales.

Here it is in all its glory

It's not like a shop you can browse, but if you ask for something they will go into the stores and get it for you.

If you want an ice pack, you could probably go into most chemists and get one of those gel-packs you put in the freezer.

I have them but the only problem with them is after a lot of use they don't 'hold' the freeze well enough, and also don't sit well over the area. For example I need to ice my knee after every session and the gel packs don't contour around my tendon.
