Cryotherapy in the News
Whole-body Cryotherapy for the Treatment of Arthritis
Symptoms associated with such autoimmune diseases, like arthritis, occur mainly in the joints. Whole-body cryotherapy can be considered as adjunctive physiotherapy which, if implemented decisively, can assist in achieving the therapeutic goal. It is not, in principle, a substitute for other proven effective therapies, although, as demonstrated by both experience and studies, it can lead to a reduction in consumed medication.
Cold Therapy Can Improve Quality of Life in Fibromyalgia Patients, Trial Shows
Exposure to extreme cold can help improve the quality of life in fibromyalgia patients by reducing musculoskeletal pain and inflammation, according to a clinical trial.
How a Cryotherapy Machine Will Help You Treat the 7 Most Common Injuries
Cryotherapy machines are proven to help deliver more consistent therapeutic cold that penetrates deeper into the body and lasts longer than traditional ice packs. This can mean a faster recovery, better pain relief, and a more convenient treatment system for your patients.
A cryotherapy machine can help patients recover from the most common injuries among both athletes and non-athletes including:
- Strains
- Sprains
- Knee injuries
- Fractures
- Back pain
- Shin splints
- Shoulder injuries
A cryotherapy machine can help patients recover from these types of injuries more effectively than ice alone for a few key reasons:
- Reduces pain
- Reduces swelling
- Increase in Surface area Treated
- Better patient compliance
