The best ice therapy product on the market! The Chilly-Billy™ is a revolutionary product designed for any athlete requiring therapy for fatigued or overused shoulder and elbows. Whether you play baseball, softball or another sport, the Chilly-Billy™ ice compress provides the therapeutic benefit athletes need. All you need is ice!

Why use a Chilly-Billy™ ice compress

When an athlete fatigues or overuses a muscle, there is typically some type of microtear and bleeding with the muscles. Icing, or cryo-therapy is best used immediately after the injury or right after the athlete completes their performance. For example, it is recommended for a baseball pitcher, after throwing in a game or practice session, to apply ice wraps immediately. By applying the ice to the muscle group areas, the ice minimizes swelling and restricts the blood flow. The ice also reduces any pain and soreness associated with the injury or fatigue.

The Chilly-Billy™ ice compress provides a unique and patent pending apparatus that allows an athlete to put the icing jacket on, and obtain effective & efficient coverage of all necessary muscle groups. It’s easy for one person to add the ice. The patented saddle compartment design and icing chute allows the ice to be added very easily. In fact, one person can fill the compartment with ice as the player is actually wearing the Chilly-Billy™ ice compress.

No other product provides the amount of coverage on not-so-easy areas to ice. Anyone who has applied ice by the typical method (baggies, cellophane wrap, ace bandages) has experienced the difficulty of placing them in proper position and trying to apply the cellophane wrap. Ice or gel packs that require freezers do not adequately cover enough area nor do they typically provide optimal cooling temperatures for a sufficient time. The Chilly-Billy™ accomplishes all of this with added convenience and ease of use.

Should pitchers ice after pitching?

You should ice immediately once the game is over, right after a bullpen in practice, or after an intense long-toss session. Icing to reduce acute inflammation works best if it's within 30-60 minutes of the trauma or intense exertion.

Do MLB pitchers ice their arms?

Nowadays in baseball, pitchers tend to do this to promote healing and bloodflow to their arms after a game. Ice slows bloodflow to the area, which is good to reduce pain and swelling, but not to help the arm recover faster. More pitchers than ever do NOT ice their arms, and the research supports this.
