Local/Spot Cryotherapy

Local/spot cryotherapy is often used in conjunction with Whole Body Cryotherapy. Local/Spot Cryotherapy uses a device that is able to isolate the trouble area. This is commonly used by athletes who have sustained an injury, or anyone who has suffered a sprain, muscle pull, overuse of a particular area or is recovering from surgery.

Local/Spot Cryotherapy is commonly applied to:

  • Feet
  • Ankles
  • Elbows
  • Neck
  • Shoulders
  • Knees
  • Hands
  • Legs
  • Back

The session normally runs 8-10 minutes. For those that follow the Whole Body Cryotherapy session with a Local/Spot Cryotherapy session we often call it an ‘inside/out’ as we invoke the systemic response to speed recovery, inflammation, etc. and the external will reduce the inflammation further in the isolated area.
