Cryotherapy is a treatment that uses extreme cold temperatures to stimulate the body’s natural recovery processes. The term comes from the Greek words kryos (cold) and therapeia (therapy). Modern cryotherapy began in the late 1970s with whole-body treatments developed for rheumatoid arthritis. Today, it is widely used in recovery, wellness, and aesthetics.
By exposing the body to sub-zero temperatures for a short time, cryotherapy helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and support faster recovery.
Whole body cryotherapy exposes the body to temperatures between -100°C and -160°C for 2–4 minutes inside a chamber. This rapid cold exposure stimulates circulation and reduces inflammation. It is widely used in sports recovery and wellness to support faster recovery and overall performance.
Localised cryotherapy targets specific areas using controlled cold therapy. It is commonly used to relieve pain, reduce swelling, and support recovery from injuries or joint conditions. The precise application allows for fast, targeted relief without affecting surrounding tissue.
CTN has redefined cryotherapy with fully electric systems designed for safety, efficiency, and ease of use. Unlike traditional gas-based cryosaunas, solutions like the e°CABIN™ eliminate the need for nitrogen, reducing operational complexity, costs, and safety risks. This allows for a more controlled and consistent treatment environment, improving both reliability and user experience.
With integrated smart software and precision sensors, CTN systems deliver personalised, high-performance treatments while remaining simple to operate and scale. For modern wellness businesses, CTN offers a safer, more efficient way to bring cryotherapy to clients.
