I have a cool tip on how to make homemade ice-treatment packs that are moldable. Just add 30 grams (two tablespoons) of salt to half a liter (two cups) of water and allow the salt to dissolve. Pour this solution into a Ziplock bag and set it in the freezer for several hours. When it's frozen, wrap the ice pack in a thin towel and apply on the affected area. Adding the salt prevents the ice from forming into the solid ice-block that it normally would when placed in the freezer.
