Mariana Viera-Navarro, MPH, PA-C, CCT, described the double-duty utility that The Osteopathic Center gets from its Zimmer MedizinSystems Cryotherapy device. The clinic uses the all-natural cold air machine for both physical therapy and for aesthetic treatments like facial cryotherapy.

In a video testimonial and aesthetic treatment demo, Viera-Navarro detailed the concept of cryotherapy, how it is applied during their local treatments, and what some of its benefits are.

“Cryotherapy, or cold therapy, as most people know it,” Viera-Navarro began, “is the use of freezing or near-freezing temperatures to cool off the skin.” Comparing the clinic’s local treatments to that of whole body cryotherapy, she explained, “We use, at The Osteopathic Center, a more targeted approach for aches and pains and inflammation of the joints…the blood flow that gets to that [targeted] area reduces inflammation. So basically, you cool off the skin and when you remove the cold temperature, the circulation opens.”

She listed an array of candidates who might benefit from local cryotherapy: “This is a good therapy for anybody that is injured and wants a speedy recovery; athletes that must maintain that top performance; or just for anti-aging purposes.” Viera-Navarro then segued into the benefits of facial cryotherapy as a treatment video illustrated the process.  She continued, “We can also do it for aesthetic purposes… We apply cold air to your face to close the pores and make you look more refreshed.”
