In-Game Recovery for Athletes
The Narwhals™ are a palm cooling device for accelerating recovery during practices and competitions, and avoiding heat stress.
Accelerate heart rate recovery during timeouts
Cool down quickly during breaks without removing gear
Extend work capacity during high intensity work
Reduce perspiration and loss of electrolytes
If you’re not thinking about thermoregulation, you’re leaving points on the table.
Our athletes love the Narwhals as they allow them to recover faster in competition and prepare for our long season. We have used them every game for the last two seasons and will continue to do so. The company and product are at the top of the field.
Paul Valukas, D1 Strength & Conditioning Coach
The Narwhals have made a significant impact on our thermoregulation model for our parathletes. We now have a proactive method for managing heat before it becomes a problem and extending our athletes’ ability to perform at higher intensities longer.
Alex Curry, Director of Sports Medicine, Adapted Athletics, University of Alabama
I’ve been using my Narwhals consistently during training and recovery for over a year and have loved how fresh and ready-to-go they help me feel! I have especially loved adding them to my wind-down routine after late practices and games to help me get more quality sleep.
Roni Perry, Professional Volleyball Player
Palm cooling is the most accessible and simplest way to improve therapy and performance across the board. Every training room and weight room on the planet should have the Narwhals!
Austin Einhorn, Movement Coach to Professional & Olympic Athletes
As ambient and core body temperatures increase, performance declines. By cooling between bouts of effort you can sustain a higher level of play longer.
Avoid heat stress
Recover heart rate faster
Increase work volume
A more powerful way to cool down is within reach
Our palms are natural radiators for the body. They contain special vasculature for efficient offloading of heat.
By holding something cool (not cold), with good thermal conductivity, and a mechanism for avoiding thermal barriers, you quickly remove excess body heat, accelerating recovery and improving performance.
The Narwhals provide portable cooling that will last entire games and long practices
Last for 2+ hours even in hot environments
Easy to swap Cool-not-Cold packs for extended use
No moving parts, batteries, or charging
High thermal conductivity & continuous heat removal
Maintains correct temperature (~55°F / 13°C)
How Palm Cooling Impacts Athlete Recovery
Palm cooling improves physical performance by delaying fatigue and accelerating recovery. In this article, we explore how palm cooling impacts an athlete's ability to recovery during games and in training.
