2 COLD - HISTORY OF THERAPEUTICAL APPLICATON
2500 B.C. – in Egypt- cold exerted an anti-inflammatory effect and alleviated injury pain; in V B.C. Hippocrates used cold to decrease swelling, bleeding and pain;

3 COLD - HISTORY OF THERAPEUTICAL APPLICATON
in 1883 a Polish physicists Karol Olszewski and Zygmunt Wróblewski executed the first condensing of nitrogen and oxygen;

4 COLD - HISTORY OF THERAPEUTICAL APPLICATON
in 1978 T. Yamauchi in Japan – created whole-body cryotherapy; for the first time in the world he applied whole-body cryotherapy in the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis

5 COLD - HISTORY OF THERAPEUTICAL APPLICATON
in 1982 R. Fricke in Germany- used whole- body cryotherapy for the first time in Europe;

6 COLD - HISTORY OF THERAPEUTICAL APPLICATON
Cryotherapy in Poland: In 1983 – Z. Zagrobelny – Department of Physiotherapy of University School of Physical Education in Wroclaw – local cryotherapy was applied for patients first time in Poland;

7 COLD - HISTORY OF THERAPEUTICAL APPLICATON
Cryotherapy in Poland: 1989 Polish cryochamber (second in Europe, third in the world) Zbigniew Raczkowski –Institute of Low Temperatures and Structural Investigations of the Polish Scientific Academy in Wroclaw; the creator of the first Polish cryochamber

13 Cryosurgical treatment with usage of spray probe

14 CRYOTHERAPY- DEFINITION
The use of extremely low temperatures (below –100°C) applied for a short time (2-3 minutes) to stimulate physiological reactions in the human body, in order to achieve more effective pharmacological treatment and kinesiotherapy.

21 WHOLE-BODY CRYOTHERAPY
Application of cryogenic temperatures for a short time (1-3 minutes) on the entire body of the patient. Whole-body cryotherapy is performed in cryochambers

22 WHOLE-BODY CRYOTHERAPY
Antechamber: acclimatisation to cryogenic temperature, exposure duration 60 seconds, temperature -60°C. Proper chamber: exposure duration 2-3minutes, temperature below -110°C. The exposure duration depends on individual cryogenic temperature tolerance. Sieroń A., Cieślar G., Stanek A. (eds).
