Ice pack cryotherapy involves applying cold compresses to the skin to lower its temperature and constrict blood vessels in the affected area. When applied to fresh injuries, it can help reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation.
You may already be familiar with using ice to reduce swelling after spraining an ankle or bumping your shin. But did you know that ice pack cryotherapy can still be beneficial well after the initial injury?
