Ice & Heat Therapy FAQ
DEAS (Desk Ergonomics Assessment Score) is Desk Doctor’s product rating system. Each product is scored across core performance, build quality, and design penalties, producing a 0–10 composite — higher is better. Tap any row in the table to see the full sub-score breakdown.
Heat suits ongoing muscle tension and stiffness — common with desk strain. Ice suits acute flare-ups and swelling. Many wraps do both so you can match the symptom.
They give real short-term relief but don’t change the cause. If desk pain keeps returning, the workspace needs adjusting — the free assessment finds what.
Scores are refreshed as products are revised and new models are tested. The table always reflects the current DEAS data.
