As of Oct 2022, a new Kool Fingers site at koolfingers.com will take over this page. This page will remain here unchanged going forward, leaving some historic context on how Kool Fingers® came about.
Have you ever applied superglue over ruptured blisters on your fingertips, to continue to play guitar, cello, bass, or harp? 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 fiddle a shapeless bag of corns for 15 minutes after every practice. That’s where Ice Gourd comes in. When you feel painful swelling and inflammation on your fingers, simply grab a fidget ice pack to bring instant and soothing cold. 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 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.
Some of you need to treat both hands at the same time. So you get two fidget ice packs in this deal. Some won’t ever need two packs. Then give one to your best friend, and share the secret with them.
