Local Cryotherapy
Type
Cryotherapy
Duration
15 min
Targeted cryotherapy for specific muscle groups or injuries.
Localized cryotherapy applies targeted cold to a specific area of the body using a hand-held device that delivers a stream of cold nitrogen vapor or chilled air. Unlike whole body cryotherapy, localized treatment focuses on a particular joint, muscle group, or skin area, achieving temperatures of -20°C to -40°C at the skin surface. Sessions last 5–15 minutes per area. This targeted approach is especially effective for acute injuries, chronic joint pain, post-surgical swelling, and cosmetic applications like cryo facials that stimulate collagen production and reduce puffiness.
