Objective . General cryotherapy effect on the human body with cooling gas is a physiotherapy method, the positive effect of which has been proven for more than 40 years of use (including in Russia, which is one of the leaders in this field). The objective of the study was to assess the prospects for the development of technical support for cryomedical effects on human organs. Methods . The work presents an overview and analysis of the current state of the technical support of this cryomethod. Results . The prospects for the method development and directions for improving the equipment are shown. It is noted that the development of the method is limited primarily by the lack of accuracy of cryotherapy and relatively high cost. Conclusion . Low-temperature therapeutic equipment can potentially be located not only in medical, cosmetology, sports facilities but also in office centers. The key in this direction is the development of technical support capabilities, which will further allow practitioners to impulse the development of methods for applying cryotherapy with cooling gas in the mass use of this physical factor in medicine.
