Chapter 14. Application Procedures: Post– Immediate Care Cryotherapy © 2008 LWW
Transition and Subacute Care Cryotherapy • Begin once secondary injury stops • Usually within 24 hr • Used for very different reasons than during immediate care – Decrease pain and inhibition – Facilitate pain-free therapeutic exercise © 2008 LWW
Transition and Subacute Care Cryotherapy (cont. ) • Application types and times differ • The key: exercise, not the cold © 2008 LWW
Local Numbing with Cryotherapy • Ice water immersion • Ice massage • Ice bag (occasionally) © 2008 LWW
Ice Water Immersion • Ice bath immersion – Not ice water submersion • Key points – Large enough container • Plastic or rubber best – Fill with ice, then water. • Goal is 32– 34°F (0– 1°C). – Warmer water does not numb as effectively. © 2008 LWW
Ice Water Immersion (cont. ) • Initial cooling usually quite painful; help patient adapt by – Giving patient a choice before beginning treatment. – Assuring patient that subsequent bouts and sessions will be much less painful. – Using a toe cap to minimize pain. – Talking to patient during initial immersion to take her mind off the cold. – Making sure patient goes through multiple immersion bouts during first session. © 2008 LWW
Ice Massage • Slowly stroke muscle with ice pop. • Discontinue when numb. • Adding a plate weight will increase numbness. © 2008 LWW
Ice Massage (cont. ) • Prepare ice pops by – Freezing water in 6– 8 oz. paper cups – Add tongue depressor to some for handle. © 2008 LWW
Transition and Subacute Care Cryotherapy: Techniques • • Cryokinetics Cryostretch Contrast bath Connective tissue stretch © 2008 LWW
Cryokinetics Combination of cold application and active exercise © 2008 LWW
Why Cryokinetics? • Cold decreases pain, which – Facilitates active exercise • Exercise – Reduces swelling (dramatically) through muscular milking action – Promotes healing and return to function – Reduces inhibition © 2008 LWW
Cryokinetics: Disadvantages • Pain during initial session • Cold can be messy. © 2008 LWW
Cryokinetics: Indications • Sprains—dynamite treatment – Ankle (especially) – Fingers © 2008 LWW
