Why Game Ready?

The clinical standard for
post-op recovery

Traditional ice packs lose temperature within minutes and provide no compression. The Game Ready system circulates ice water continuously and delivers cyclical pneumatic compression. Trusted by thousands of orthopaedic surgeons, physiotherapists, and professional sport clubs worldwide.

❄️

Active cryo-compression

Continuously circulates ice water through anatomical wraps for deeper, longer-lasting cooling vs. static ice packs.

💊

Reduces opioid consumption

Clinically proven to reduce reliance on pain medication post-surgery, for a safer and more comfortable recovery.

Faster recovery

Accelerates tissue healing by flushing waste products and delivering oxygen-rich blood to the injured area.

🩺

Recommended by surgeons

The system of choice for orthopaedic specialists, physical therapists, and elite sports teams across the world.

🦿

Large range of anatomical wraps

Effective for knee, shoulder, hip, ankle, wrist surgeries as well as acute injuries, low back and neck pain.

Frequently
asked questions

Still have questions?

Email us at ukrental@gameready.co.uk or call us on 0845 2417 920. We typically reply within 2 business hours.

What's included in the rental?

Every rental includes: the GRPro 2.1 control unit, a single-connector hose, a carry bag, and one anatomical wrap of your choice. Delivery and collection are also included, as is VAT at 20%. An additional wrap can be added for £100.

Which anatomical wraps are available?

Our cryotherapy compression rental offers 9 wrap options with different sizes designed for targeted recovery: knee (straight or articulated), ankle, shoulder (left & right), elbow (flexed or straight), hip (left & right), back, cervical spine, and wrist/hand. Simply select the wrap that matches your injury or surgery site and size when booking your home cryo-compression device rental.

How many ice cubes are needed to ensure treatment?

For each cryocompression therapy session, we recommend filling 4–5 standard ice cube trays. For better efficiency, use larger ice moulds. Larger ice blocks melt more slowly, reducing how often you need to refill.

What processing settings should I use?

Treatment settings for your Game Ready cryo-pneumatic device should be prescribed by your surgeon, physiotherapist or healthcare professional. If no instructions were provided, refer to the recommended settings chart included with the device.

Why do I need to provide identity documents?

Identity verification is required to process your Game Ready rental booking securely and to comply with medical device rental regulations. It also ensures the equipment is dispatched to the right person and address, protecting both parties throughout the rental period.

Is it possible to cancel a booking that has already been paid for?

Yes, you can cancel your cryotherapy device rental free of charge, provided the device has not yet been dispatched. You'll receive a full refund. If your surgery has been rescheduled, we can also adjust your rental dates. Once the device has been shipped, delivery costs remain non-refundable. Contact us as soon as possible at ukrental@gameready.co.uk.

Is the payment secure?

Yes. All payments for our Game Ready rental UK service are processed via a fully secured online payment system (SSL encryption, PCI-DSS compliant). Your card details are never stored.

Who should I contact if I have a problem with the device?

First, consult the troubleshooting guide included with your cryo-compression rental unit. If the issue persists, contact our support team at ukrental@gameready.co.uk. We'll get back to you as quickly as possible with a solution, including a device replacement if needed.
