Ice cup massage - how long?

[secretlyevil]

The interwebz is giving me a whole spectrum of durations to ice cup. What's H&F's thought?

ETA: clarification - dixie cup ice

[Susie]

Do you mean like freezing a dixie cup and doing an ice massage with that? I think I used to do 5-10 minutes, but that also roughly coincided with it getting pretty melted.

Here's my first experience: five minutes of icing - ice slides out of cup onto office carpet and breaks - wet carpet under my chair now. Oh and my pant leg is wet. This is messy stuff!

Mine usually stayed in the cup, I'd just peel the paper cup back as the surface melted.

I do it with a towel under my leg because yeah, it drips everywhere! My dogs also want the ice (ICE CUBES!!!), so I'm usually fending them off.

Add a toddler and this is my house. "Mommy, I have ice? Ice mommy? Mommy I want ice please. Please?!" ::snuff snuff snuff lick lick lick:: (from the dogs).

Meaning, I did it once and gave up.

Sounds like work is a peaceful place for ice cupping...

Burpees are tough, ZB might be a little sore.
