Localized cryotherapy is commonly used in physiotherapy to help relieve acute pain, inflammation, or injuries in a specific area, such as a joint, muscle, or tendon. It is also trendy in medical aesthetics for skin rejuvenation and resurfacing. Being effective, easy, and economical, localized cryotherapy is widely used in beauty salons, fitness and wellness centers, sports medical teams, physiotherapy centers, and other healthcare facilities.
During a localized cryotherapy session, a handheld cryotherapy machine delivers controlled bursts of extremely cold air (-78℃ CO2) to the treated areas. It can lower the skin temperature to 4℃ to create many effects in the treated areas.
