What it is
About Localised Cryotherapy
Localised cryotherapy uses a focused stream of very cold air applied directly to a specific area of the body for a short period — usually around 5–7 minutes. Unlike whole body cryotherapy, which delivers an all-over cold experience inside a chamber, localised cryotherapy concentrates the cold on one targeted area such as a knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow, hip or lower back. It is a quick, non-invasive recovery option commonly used to support local soreness, stiffness, swelling and inflammation as part of a wider recovery routine.

FAQs
Common Questions
What is localised cryotherapy?
Localised cryotherapy applies focused cold exposure directly to a specific area of the body — such as a knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow, hip or lower back — for a short, targeted session. It is commonly used as part of recovery routines for local soreness, stiffness, swelling and inflammation support.
How is it different from whole body cryotherapy?
Whole body cryotherapy exposes the entire body to very cold air inside a chamber for a short full-body experience. Localised cryotherapy is targeted: it concentrates the cold therapy on one specific area, which makes it useful when you want focused recovery for a particular sore or irritated spot.
How long does a localised cryotherapy session take?
Most localised cryotherapy sessions at Renew are around 5–7 minutes per area, depending on the area being treated and suitability. It is a quick, targeted recovery session that fits easily around training or a day at David Lloyd Stockton-on-Tees.
What areas can be treated?
Common areas include knees, shoulders, ankles, elbows, hips, lower back, calves, thighs and other localised areas of discomfort or stiffness. The area simply needs to be accessible so the cold therapy can be applied directly.
How many sessions might someone need?
It depends on the area, goal and how you respond. Many clients in Stockton and Teesside use blocks of 4 or 6 sessions as part of an ongoing recovery routine. We can guide you on a sensible starting point when you visit Renew.
