Targeted areas can benefit from local cryotherapy by having their pain and inflammation reduced, their blood flow improved, etc. While localised cryotherapy has directional effects and occasionally works in conjunction with full-body cryotherapy sessions, whole-body cryotherapy affects every area of your body.

These local cryotherapy devices use a chilled gas stream that is primarily made of liquid nitrogen vapour. These machines operate at a temperature of roughly -130°C, and depending on the location, a cryo session lasts 5-8 minutes.
