What are the primary mechanisms of cryotherapy treatment?

The body is exposes to extreme cold where the blood vessels constrict, reducing inflammation and pain. In the rewarming session, the blood vessels dilate allowing oxygenated blood circulation into the tissues. The metabolic wastes are flushed out and the cell is repaired. During this process noradrenaline, endorphins, adrenaline is triggered acting as natural pain relief.

What are the types of Cryotherapy?

• Whole-body cryotherapy sessions: In this procedure the patient is allowed to stand in cryogenic chamber for around 2-4 minutes to improve muscle recovery, reduce systemic inflammation and enhances mood.
• Localised cryotherapy: Cold gas, liquid nitrogen or ice packs are applied to the injured part of the body for quick relief.
• Cryosurgery: Damaged or cancerous cells are destroyed using liquid nitrogen.
