Cryotherapy Units Market Dynamics

Technological advancements in cryotherapy equipment drive market growth

Cryotherapy has become a crucial treatment option, mainly due to the several technological innovations and advancements in cryotherapy equipment. Several developments have been observed in numerous equipment, which includes cryosurgery units and accessories. Cryochambers and cryosaunas are widely used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, inflammation, and pain management. Moreover, cryosurgical equipment has witnessed considerable developments in the forecast period. For instance, in November 2021, India Medtronic Private Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Medtronic plc, which is the global leader in healthcare technology, announced the launch of the Arctic Front Cardiac Cryoablation Catheter System. Cryoballoon ablation is an invasive procedure that offers a short recovery time and comparable safety and efficacy to standard radiofrequency therapy but with the benefit of greater treatment efficiency.

Limited access to cryotherapy and lack of awareness adversely impacted the market growth. Cryotherapy stays limited to a few geographic regions. The scope of cryotherapy practices is majorly limited to Europe and North America, with few other countries, such as China, Japan, and Australia, witnessing developments in this field, mainly owing to the lack of awareness. Even though it is safer and less painful than highly invasive surgical procedures, it is utilized only for surgical treatments on a large scale. According to the International Patient Survey: Ledderhose disease, patients, found cryotherapy to be an effective treatment option, though less available than traditional methods. The US National Cancer Institute states that although cryosurgery may be broadly available for the treatment of cervical neoplasias, the limited number of hospitals and cancer centers in the US have access to the necessary technology to achieve cryosurgery for other precancerous, noncancerous, and cancerous conditions. Restricted access to cryotherapy and a lack of awareness regarding its benefits and advantages may inhibit market growth to a certain level during the forecast period.

Cryotherapy Units Market Segmentation Analysis

The cryosurgery devices segment will project the fastest growth in the market throughout the forecast period

Based on product, the cryotherapy market is segmented into cryosurgery devices (tissue contact probes, tissue spray probes, and epidermal & subcutaneous cryoablation devices), localized cryotherapy devices, and cryochambers & cryo saunas.

The cryosurgery devices segment is estimated to witness the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. Advantages offered by cryosurgery include fewer side effects and greater affordability of cryosurgery devices, which are increasing its adoption. Therefore, the demand for cryotherapy devices is growing.

Based on the applications market is segmented into surgical applications (oncology, dermatology, cardiology, and other surgical applications); pain management; and recovery, health, & beauty applications.

The surgical applications segment held a significant market share in the forecast period. Cryotherapy is broadly used for the treatment of various health conditions, such as pain, tissue damage or lesions, malignant and benign tumors, and sports injuries. The surgical applications segment held the dominant position in the market in 2022, a trend that is likely to continue during the forecast period. The huge share of this segment can be ascribed to the higher adoption of cryoablation for cancer treatment and the advantages offered by this technique over conventional surgery.

This acquisition will expand the company's fertility and labor and delivery offerings.

COVID-19 Impact on Cryotherapy Units Market

Negative impact on the global cryotherapy units market.

COVID-19 has certainly negatively impacted the growth of the market in 2020. The governments of various countries set strict regulations on the kind of elective surgery and medical procedure that hospitals are allowed to perform. During the Covid pandemic, there was a decrease in demand for cryotherapy Units and an interruption in their supply owing to transportation regulations. Due to these challenges, manufacturers of cryotherapy units were forced to confront challenges such as a shift in customer behavior and a demand reduction. The decline in hospital visits and diagnostic tests for CVD and cancer has led to the downfall of the treatment solutions associated with such diseases. Therefore, a considerable decline in the market value of cryotherapy units globally is estimated in 2020.
