The Research, Design and Development of a prototype Liquid Nitrogen Cryotherapy Device combining Electrical Stimulation and Heat

With a growing consumer driven cryotherapy market and its widespread applications in the medical industry a leading British cryotherapy clinic and equipment distributer have been researching the potential benefits to health and wellbeing of a novel procedure combining localised cryotherapy with electrical stimulation and heat. The project oversaw the development of a proof of principal prototype to allow further testing and technical development with a view to manufacture. Detailed in the project report is the research into multiple systems including a framework, heating system, Liquid Nitrogen pump and bodywork. An initial working proof of principal prototype was developed establishing an architecture for the combined machine considering function and user ergonomics.
