Frequently asked questions

What is Hélé cold cryo gel used for after a football match?

Hélé cold cryo gel is designed for muscle recovery after a football match or training session. Its immediate cold effect relieves the calves, thighs and adductors worked during the 90 minutes, soothes heavy-leg sensations and helps limit next-day soreness.

When should I apply the cold cryo gel after a football match?

It is ideally applied straight after the match or training session, on clean skin, preferably after the shower. For soreness that appears the next day, it can be reapplied 2 to 3 times a day for 48 hours to speed up recovery.

Which areas should a footballer apply the cold cryo gel to?

Massage it in circular movements onto the areas most worked in football: calves, thighs (quadriceps and hamstrings), adductors and knees — the main areas affected by soreness and heavy legs after a match.

What are the active ingredients in Hélé cold cryo gel?

Its formula combines menthol, peppermint essential oil, camphor rosemary, Eucalyptus radiata and organic silicon. Menthol and peppermint provide the intense cold effect, while organic silicon supports the regeneration of the muscle tissue worked during the match.

Does Hélé cold cryo gel really help with soreness after a match?

Yes, the cold effect relieves tired muscles and stimulates microcirculation, while organic silicon supports the recovery of muscle fibres. Used after exercise, it helps reduce the intensity and duration of the soreness caused by the intensity of a football match.

Can Hélé cold cryo gel be used for cramps during or after a match?

Yes, it can be applied as soon as the first signs of cramp or muscle tension appear. The cold effect brings quick relief, which is particularly useful late in a match or in extra time when your legs start to tire.

What is the difference between the 75 ml and 500 ml sizes on footboks.com?

The 75 ml size is suited to occasional use or to slip into your kit bag, while the 500 ml size suits footballers who train regularly several times a week and want a recovery supply for the whole season.

Can Hélé cold cryo gel replace ice or cryotherapy after a match?

Hélé cold cryo gel is not intended to replace medical cryotherapy for an injury, but it offers a practical, immediate alternative to an ice pack for standard muscle recovery after exercise, without the hassle of preparing real cold.

Are there any precautions a footballer should follow when using this gel?

The cold cryo gel must not be applied to mucous membranes, open wounds or the eyes, and is not recommended for children under 3. If you suspect a muscle injury during the match (strain, tear), it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional before any application.

Can Hélé cold cryo gel be combined with other Footboks recovery products?

Yes, it fits well into a post-match recovery routine that includes electrolytes (Activ Hydrate) for hydration and stretching. The supplier also recommends following up with a joint gel the next day to support the rebuilding of muscle tissue over time.
