Care: club bags, bands, massage
In the bag of the volunteer physio, a cold spray, bandages, and a ready-to-use first aid kit save valuable minutes after a bump, a cut, or an ankle twist on the sideline.
Filled bags, bandages, creams, and recovery equipment to kit out a club's bench as well as a player's locker.
Treatment bag or first aid kit
The treatment bag Pro from Sporti comes filled with: cold packs, dressings, adhesive bandages, sterile gauze, scissors, a survival blanket, gloves, and tweezers, plus massage products like camphor oil, heat gel, and arnica gel. For a smaller group, the first aid kit from Sporti travels with the team everywhere. Medical bags from Errea, Kempa, or Macron help organise the treatment equipment.
Cold or hot: when to use what
Cold is applied to a recent bruise or twist, in short sessions and with cloth on the skin. Heat is for preparing a muscle before activity or relaxing stiffness, never on a fresh injury. The camphor heat cream from Select and its muscle balms belong to this second category.
Bandages, straps, and pre-emptive support
Elastic bands from Sporti, in rolls of 20, 30, or 40 meters, are for straps and bandaging. The Profcare pre-taping bandage from Select protects the skin before applying an adhesive bandage. For an effective ankle strap, ask your physio to show you how to apply it.
Recovering after effort: massage and electrostimulation
Massage guns and devices, electrostimulators like the pack of three Onamaste, and massage oil warmers from Hummel help recovery at home. These devices relieve tension, but they don't replace medical advice if pain persists.
Sprays, bandages, medical supplies: care pages
The sprays and care creams combine cold, heat, and balms. The bandages group together strips and straps. The medical supplies gather the rest of the treatment equipment.

Frequently asked questions
What to put in a hand team’s first aid kit?
A cold pack or cold sprays, gauze, plasters, bandages, scissors, gloves, and a survival blanket. Add something to clean a wound and a list of emergency numbers.
Can a filled treatment bag be restocked?
Yes, the consumables can be repurchased individually or in kits. Check the supplies after each tournament, as the cold packs run out quickly.
How long should cold be applied to a sprain?
In sessions of about twenty minutes at most, repeated, with a cloth between the skin and the cold. If the pain is severe or if bearing weight is impossible, consult a doctor.
Cold spray or ice pack?
The spray is quick to use on the field, while the ice or gel pack provides longer cooling. Always protect the skin with a cloth to prevent cold burns.
Is a heat cream used before or after a match?
Preferably before, during warm-up, to prepare a stiff muscle. After an impact, favour cold and save the heat for later.
