Thermal Therapy Options Tailored to your Business
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 […]
This statement is based on: Comparative physiological studies of hormonal, circulatory and inflammatory responses. Observations of neuroendocrine stimulation, such as norepinephrine and β-endorphin levels. The rate of skin temperature drop, which must occur within 1 – 2 minutes to trigger true thermal shock. This data comes from both clinical trials and WBC protocols followed in […]

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 […]
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 […]
