WBC VS. COLD AIR CRYOTHERAPY CHAMBERS (CS)

Therapeutic Benefits of Cold Air Chambers Mild analgesia (pain relief) – Cold Air Cryotherapy Chambers slow nerve conduction velocity in superficial nerves. This can dull pain signals in the skin and muscles, providing temporary relief from muscle soreness, joint pain and localised discomfort. Reduction in superficial inflammation – Cooling of the skin and muscle surface […]

IMMEDIATE CARE OF ACUTE INJURY (CS)

The Role of Cooling Application in Acute Injury Management Cold therapy is most effective after bleeding has stopped, as it does not influence active haemorrhaging. When applied early, within minutes of injury, it can significantly reduce the formation of edema. While it cannot reverse swelling once it has developed, cooling can still limit its progression […]

COOLING TREATMENTS (CS)

The following references illustrate how cooling treatments produce effective outcomes in acute injury management. The local application of cold suppresses the metabolic rate of the surrounding soft tissues. This lowered metabolism decreases enzymatic activity, helping to protect tissues from hypoxia-related damage. Additionally, local hypothermia causes vasoconstriction and decreases microcirculation by over 60%, with these effects […]
