Cryotherapy means cold therapy. Cryotherapy can be applied in various ways, including icepacks, coolant sprays, ice massage, and whirlpools, or ice baths. When used to treat injuries at home, cryotherapy refers to cold therapy with ice or gel packs that are usually kept in the freezer until needed. These remain one of the simplest, time-tested remedies for managing pain and swelling.
Cold therapy helps reduce inflammation. It’s most helpful when used for acute injuries and pain. It aids in slowing the rate of reducing tissue damage around a joint or tendon. Cold therapy can numb sore muscle tissue, almost acting as an anesthetic. It has the ability to slow down the pain signals that are transmitted to the brain. Cold compresses are part of a common at-home treatment for standard injuries – RICE – Rest, ice, compression, elevation.
Major factors that drive the growth of the global cold pain therapy market include a rise in the number of musculoskeletal disorders, arthritis, osteoarthritis, joint disorders and others, upsurge in technological advancement that have led to the development of more sophisticated and user-friendly cold pain therapy products. Furthermore, the growing aging population and growing awareness of the potential side effects and risks associated with long-term use of pain medications are the major factors that increase the demand for non-pharmacological pain management and hence propel the growth of the market. In addition, the increase in the number of key market players and the strategies they adopt for the development of technologically advanced cold pain therapy products are the major factors that boost the growth of the cold pain therapy market.
For instance, in March 2023, Aspen Medical Products (Aspen), the industry leader in solutions for mobility and pain management, and NICE Recovery Systems (NICE), a leading provider in the sports and injury recovery space, announced a strategic partnership that aims to bring more precise recovery and pain management solutions to patients and medical professionals. The partnership leverages NICE's advanced cold compression technology with Aspen's effective bracing solutions to deliver pain management and post-operative care to patients recovering from surgery or injury.
However, the growing use of low-priced analgesic pills for immediate pain relief and lack of favorable reimbursement restrain the growth of the cold pain therapy market. On the contrary, the increase in the adoption of analgesic patches is expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the cold pain therapy market to grow during the forecast period.
