What is Localized Cryotherapy?
Localized Cryotherapy, targeted to a specific muscle area or spasm can be applied via a localized device for 2-3 minutes depending on the area. Localized cold air treatments reach -25° to -40° F, and drop skin temperature rapidly without discomfort as our technicians are trained to measure skin temperature, watch the treated area for coloration changes, and interact with the customer to ensure comfort during treatments. An example of localized treatment would occur with a low back, neck, hamstring, ankle, knee, wrist, or elbow pain.
We recommend Whole Body Chamber (systemic) followed by localized cold air (targeted) after a short rewarming period for the best results.
How does Localized Cryotherapy work?
During a localized cryotherapy session, a cryotherapy technician applies extremely cold air or nitrogen gas to the targeted area for a few minutes. The cold exposure triggers a number of physiological responses, including the constriction of blood vessels, which reduces swelling and inflammation. When the treatment ends, the body sends a rush of oxygenated blood to the area, accelerating the healing process and reducing pain.
Who can benefit from Localized Cryotherapy ?
Localized cryotherapy is ideal for individuals who need relief in a specific area of the body. Some of the most common issues treated with localized cryotherapy include:
-
Sports injuries, such as sprains, strains, and muscle soreness.
-
Chronic pain from conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, or bursitis.
-
Post-surgery recovery, to help reduce swelling and pain.
