Therapy information
Cryotherapy is based on surface cooling and thus a local reduction in tissue temperature. In cold air therapy, a continuously cooled air stream with a constant temperature range is used for this purpose. As a result, there are a number of thermoregulatory effects which differ from those of other forms of cold application (e.g. ice or cold compresses) and which are desirable for various indications. These include, in particular, acute and chronic pain conditions (especially in sports physiotherapy) and rheumatic conditions. Cold air therapy is also used to cool the skin surface during laser treatments.
In detail, there are the following specific physiological effects of cryotherapy with cold air flow:
- Reduction of sensory nerve sensitivity
- Reduction of nerve conduction velocity
- Immediate vasoconstrictor effect
Selected use cases
Cold air therapy has an enormously wide range of applications. Among other things, it is ideal for the treatment of:
- Bursopathy
- Soft-tissue injury
- Pain, musculoskeletal
- Tendopathy
