Compelling therapeutic success with cold air as low as -30°C

Cryo 7 is the perfect system for cooling tissue and skin. An important therapeutic

characteristic of cold air therapy is contact-free cooling. The level of water vapour in the air decreases as the temperature decreases and thus thecold air of the Cryo represents a dry treatment with an outlet temperature as low as -30°C. As a result, the risk of frostbite is reduced to a minimum. During cold air application – in contrast to the application of cold packs or ice bags – no moist layer of vapour forms on the skin which would make longer-lasting cooling more difficult. Cooling with cold air is therefore more effective.

In laser or IPL applications, the uniformly cold air that is chilled down to ‑30°C is proven to reduce pain. The laser beam or the intensively pulsed light is not impaired by the accompanying cold air therapy.

Broad spectrum of applications

Cold air therapy is suitable for brief, fast and intensive cooling of the skin as well as for longer periods of moderate cooling in order to decrease the temperature in deeper layers of tissue.

Treatment support through combination with cold air

Cryotherapy can be combined with a variety of other treatments, for example, to improve movement therapy by prior application of cold air (15-20 min). Other combination possibilities include:

Combination with compression in cases of acute injuries
Treatment of muscular trigger points incombination with stretching

Sports medicine and traumatology

Many sports physiotherapists and sports medicinespecialists use cold air preventively for prophylactic early-stage treatment immediately following major exertion during sports before symptoms occur, such as after a competitive event.

Gel-free ‘softshot – pulse’ Radial Shockwave

Zimmer radial shockwave devices generates a special form of shockwave with a relatively heavy projectile and a comparatively low impact speed—the enPulsPro softshot shockwave.This requires that the shockwaves with rise times of approx. 3.5 µs and the typical energy settings also generated by compressed-air devices pass through the tissue without any change in the form of the wave, because the stress is within the moment of inertia and the module of elasticity of the tissue.The slower rise of the wave and the significantly lower peak amplitude mean that enPulsPro does not generate the typical whiplash effect of the shockwave, make it easier for the patient to tolerate.

High Energy Inductive therapy – emFieldpro

High Energy Inductive Therapy ( emFieldPro) – Electromagnetic fields can pass through cells, tissues, organs and bones without any deformation or loss, activate the electrochemistry of tissues, and improve cell and cell membrane function.

The emFieldPro generates strongmagnetic field stimulates nerve cells, muscles, and blood vessels consequently.

Inductive therapy can be used to treat acute and chronic pain conditions of the musculoskeletal and neural system.
Through repetitive contractions of the muscles surrounding the joint, release of joint blockage can be achieved
Enhance local blood circulation and tissue metabolism, which indicate fracture healing process from its very beginning
Trigger muscle contractions by triggering the action potential in the neuromuscular tissue to strengthen weakened muscles
With its high frequency of stimulation, emFieldPro effectively eliminates muscle tension and therefore can be used in treatment of spastic disorders.

High Energy Inductive Therapy

The human body is a good conducting medium and also conductive to magnetic fields. Since ions in a cell have a charge, the cell membrane also needs a certain charge.

The membrane charge of normal, healthy cells is higher than that of diseased or aged cells, including bacteria and viruses. When the cell membrane charge is low, the cell has too little energy to perform its normal function.
Hence, cells need energy, and electro-magnetic field stimulation is known to increase this energy and optimize the function of the cell.

Electromagnetic fields inductive therapy can pass through cells, tissues, organs and bones without any deformation or loss, activate the electrochemistry of tissues, and improve cell and cell membrane function.

The emFieldPro generates a magnetic field of 3 Tesla, which is about 600 times stronger than a normal magnet bar. This strong
magnetic field stimulates nerve cells, muscles, and blood vessels consequently.
