Local Cryotherapy is an effective 5-10-minute therapy specifically geared towards a particular body part to help reduce pain/inflammation, repair tissue damage, aid in post surgery recovery, enhance blood circulation, and improve skin tone.
Local Cryotherapy can be used independently or in conjunction with Whole Body Cryotherapy. Independently, Local Cryotherapy is ideal for someone not physically mobile or healthy enough for Whole Body Cryotherapy. In conjunction with Whole Body Cryotherapy,
it can effectively enhance treatment for muscle or joint pain or injury.
Local Cryotherapy uses a small handheld device that applies a fine mist of chilled air to a specific body part or facial. At Beyond Cryotherapy, we provide Local Cryotherapy Facials as well as Local Cryotherapy for pain management.
Cryo Local can effectively enhance treatment for muscle or joint pain or injury. This is common if one has a sprain, strained, or pulled a muscle, is recovering post surgery, or is an athlete who has sustained an overuse injury. Local cryotherapy penetrates
past the top layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production, and provides an efficient, powerful, more comfortable treatment over traditional applied ice treatments.
Local cryotherapy treatments are designed to target a specific area of the body to help provide the following benefits:
- Relieve pain
