Market Fundamentals
Cryotherapy, also known as cold therapy, is the local or general use of low temperatures in medical therapy to destroy abnormal or diseased tissue and is most commonly used to treat skin conditions. It is used to relieve muscle pain, sprains, and swelling after soft tissue damage or surgery. The most prominent use of cryotherapy is for surgical treatment, specifically known as cryosurgery or cryoablation. The Treatment ranges from the application of ice packs or immersion in ice baths (generally known as cold therapy) to the use of cold chambers. Cryotherapy uses imaging guidance, a needle-like applicator called a cryoprobe, and liquid nitrogen or argon gas to create an intense cold to freezing conditions and destroy diseased tissue including cancer cells.
