Brads Story

Founder Brad experienced years of ongoing pain and inflammation due to an old rugby injury.

Managing it with his physiotherapist, Brad found hot and cold therapy was the best way to reduce the impact on his life and prepare for his upcoming surgery. The relief from the temperature therapy was immediate and lasting, he knew they were on to something. 

Following his knee replacement surgery, the medical advice Brad received was to continue the treatment and get back into his exercise to rehabilitate the knee. After experiencing the relief of cold therapy prior to surgery, he knew it was what he needed post operative. 

This led to Brad exploring the best at home solutions for cold compression therapy. In the early days, he'd use the Cold Compression Kit up to 5 times a day, for 20 minutes each time. The relief this provided allowed Brad to get moving again and quickly start his recovery, from the comfort of his own home. 

Now fully recovered and 12 months on, Brad uses the Cold Compression Kit for regular recovery if he’s gone too hard on the skis, bike or at the gym. Making use of the full range of wraps, the ankles, knees, shoulders, hips and back all come in handy for anyone with an active lifestyle. 

Brad and the team at Cold on Tight are locals, outdoor lovers, and are passionate about supporting active kiwis all across New Zealand get back out there.
