Cryotherapy

Localised Cryotherapy is a non-invasive therapy based on short-term application of low temperatures to the affected area of the body.

Physiologically during this procedure, for the first few seconds, the blood vessels constrict causing a reduction in pain perception after which the vessels dilate increasing the blood flow in the tissue treated which leads to an increased activity of the metabolic processes and a reduction in muscle tension. Exposing the tissue to an extreme temperature triggers a systemic anti-inflammatory response.

Cryogenic procedures are 100% safe, cause no side effects, and demonstrate outstanding results for musculoskeletal injuries and chronic conditions when used in conjunction with physiotherapy.
