Cryotherapy, or cold therapy, is used in rehabilitation to control inflammation, pain, and spasticity by reducing tissue temperature and facilitating recovery from acute trauma. Various methods of application include ice packs, cold compresses, and vapocoolant sprays, each with specific techniques and durations for effective treatment. While cryotherapy has advantages such as being cost-effective and reusable, it also has disadvantages like potential discomfort and the need for careful monitoring during application.
