How cryo therapy units support faster recovery

Cold reduces blood flow to an injured area, which limits swelling and slows the nerve signals that cause pain. Combine that with some form of compression, which our cold compression units provide, and the result is another boost to speed up the clearing process. It’s that kind of synergy which makes cryotherapy so important when dealing with injuries, post-operative recovery and sports-related issues.

Cold compression units vs whole-body cryotherapy chambers

If you've been searching for a cryotherapy chamber for sale in the UK, it's worth knowing the difference between a whole-body cryo chamber and the cold compression systems we supply. A cryo chamber is a large, enclosed unit built for whole-body exposure to extreme cold, more commonly found in sports science facilities and wellness centres. The cryo therapy units on this page are portable cold compression systems, built for targeted treatment of a specific joint or injury site, the kind of equipment used daily in physiotherapy clinics, sports therapy rooms, and NHS settings. Whether you’re looking for specific cryotherapy equipment for your facility, we have everything from basic controllers to sophisticated devices like the Cryo 7 Pro.

Choosing the right cryotherapy machine for your clinic

Entry-level control units like the Cryo Pro suit clinics running a lower volume of cold compression treatments. The Zimmer Cryo 6 and Cryo 7 systems step up in build quality and suit clinics with heavier daily use. The Cryo 7 Pro adds further programme options for practices that want more control over treatment protocols. We also stock replacement parts for the Cryo 6 unit, so an ageing system doesn't need replacing outright if a single component fails.

Frequently Asked Questions On Cryo Therapy Units & Cold Compression Machines

Where can cryotherapy be used in physiotherapy and sports medicine?

Cryotherapy provides an excellent means of pain relief, swelling, and inflammation reduction post-injury or surgical procedures. It is one of the components of treatment methods, which include post-surgical and regular training in sports.

What are the differences between a cryotherapy chamber and a cold compression machine?

A cryotherapy chamber is a big chamber where the entire body can be exposed to cold temperatures. A cold compression unit, like the systems on this page, targets a specific joint or injury site and combines cold with mechanical compression. trimbio supplies the latter, the equipment used in physiotherapy clinics, sports therapy rooms, and NHS settings.

How much does a cryo therapy machine cost?

Our portable cold compression and cryo therapy units range from around £290 for an entry-level control unit up to £8,600 or more for advanced systems like the Cryo 7 Pro. Whole-body cryotherapy chambers aren't part of trimbio's range and sit in a different price bracket entirely.

Do you supply replacement parts or servicing for existing cryo units?

Yes. We stock replacement parts for the Cryo 6 unit, and our engineers service and repair cold compression systems on-site or in our workshop.

Are you a supplier of cryotherapy equipment for the NHS?

Yes, we at trimbio have the honour of being an approved supplier for NHS trusts and private facilities all around the country.
