Chemotherapy Cooling Slippers – Foot & Nail Protection

OncoNeivia cooling booties are specially designed to preserve the health and comfort of your feet and toenails during your chemotherapy sessions. By distributing a gentle, continuous cold under the sole of the foot, the heel, and over all the toes, they offer a natural response to prevent and alleviate the side effects of treatments, such as hand-foot syndrome, severe dryness, burning sensations, tingling, or nail fragility.

During the infusion, the action of the cold causes localized vasoconstriction (a temporary tightening of the blood vessels) in the feet. This targeted reduction of peripheral blood flow helps limit the amount of treatment reaching the extremities and protects the most sensitive areas.

✨ Key benefits

❄️ Targeted protection of the extremities: Helps preserve toenails, reduce the risk of peeling, and soothe foot discomfort.

🌿 Comfort & Softness: Breathable and pleasantly soft fabric that insulates against the sensation of direct contact with the ice.

🦶 Adapted ergonomics: Enveloping design that keeps the cold well-maintained on sensitive areas (toes, sole, heel).

💡 Usage tips

1. Preparation: Place the cooling booties flat in the freezer at least 2 hours before your appointment (or the day before).
2. Transport: Slip your frozen booties into an insulated bag with ice packs to maintain the cold until you arrive at the oncology center.
3. Application: Put the booties on 10 to 15 minutes before the start of the product injection, then change them every 30 minutes for optimal cold for the entire duration recommended by your medical team. Keep the booties on for at least 30 minutes after the end of the session.
4. Maintenance: Clean the booties with a damp cloth and/or a disinfectant product (e.g., Surfanios). Never immerse them in water, and dry them thoroughly before placing them back in the freezer.

⚕️ Advice from the OncoNeivia team

Remember to consult your medical team to validate the use of cold based on your specific chemotherapy protocol.

For people who are particularly sensitive to cold, wearing a pair of thin cotton socks under the cooling booties provides optimal comfort.
