Purpose: To examine temperature change in the hamstrings at the point of numbness while walking with a "to-go" ice bag compared to resting with an ice bag. Methods: Participants completed both walking and resting ice bag applications separated by at least 1 week in a randomized order. Baseline measures of skin sensation and intramuscular temperature were recorded before and immediately after participant-reported numbness of the hamstrings for each condition. Results: There were no significant interactions between the walking and resting conditions at baseline or at the point of numbness for skin sensation and muscle temperature (There were no significant interactions between the walking and resting conditions at baseline or at the point of numbness for skin sensation and muscle temperature (P >.430). The walking condition reached numbness significantly faster (10.2 ± 2.6 minutes) than the resting condition (15.8 ± 4.3 minutes) (P <.001). Conclusions: When "to-go" ice bags are applied to the hamstring, the point of numbness may be used as a guide for treatment length because it indicates efficient cooling of the underlying musculature.
