The Breg Wave / VPulse Cold Therapy Knee Pad is designed to be used with either the Wave or VPulse Cold Therapy and Compression Unit. These pads can be directly put on the skin and do not require a underlayer. These pads provide continuous cold therapy and compression of the knee joint. Great for using after knee surgery such as after a total knee replacement.
Using the optional Y-Adaptor, you can use 2 pads to work on different body parts at the same time (both knees). These machines improve range of movement, reduce blood loss, reduce swelling and inflammation and reduces pain.
VPulse Cryotherapy and compression helps patients achieve complete, comfortable recoveries through delivery of three distinct therapies:
- Motorized cold therapy to help reduce operative site swelling, discomfort and inflammation.
- Wound compression to further help reduce operative site inflammation
- Rapid impulse calf compression to help prevent Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) – optional.

This compression pad would have been a 5 but as it turned out The recommended size is most definitely to small. If it’s too small as mine is the straps tend to dig into my leg when it’s in the compression mode. So unless I buy another pad I can’t use the compression on low or high
