The Cryo Cuff from Aircast is a cold therapy unit that synergistically combines the benefits of cold therapy and compression to reduce pain and speed recovery from injuries to your knee, shoulder, back and more. You can also use this unit to speed recovery from surgical procedures as well as reduce the pain you would otherwise feel during the post-op period.
The Cryo Cuff cold therapy unit includes the following components, each of which may be purchased separately:
- Cuffs for the knee, shoulder, back, ankle, wrist and calf. There are actually 3 knee units in sizes small, medium and large. The cuffs feature an anatomical design to ensure maximum coverage and optimum cold therapy and compression effectiveness. The cuffs tighten around the areas you are treating to provide compression therapy. For additional convenience, you can wear the Aircast Cryo Cuff knee units on either leg;
- A Cooler that supplies the ice and cold water that flows through the cuff and provides the cold therapy. You can get either:
- a gravity powered Cooler that you raise and lower manually to control the flow of ice/cold water through the cuff. This Cooler is included with each cuff you purchase; or
- a motorized cooler powered by an integrated circuit (IC) that automatically controls the flow of water through the cuff. The motorized cooler is purchased separately from the cuff.
The Cryo Cuff uses controlled (not continuous) cold therapy to avoid tissue damage. Its coolers can hold ice and cold water for as long as 8 hours and provide cold therapy for that period.
The knee cuff comes in sizes small, medium and large. Please see the chart under the Sizing tab on this page for knee sizing information.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Cryo Cuff work, and what makes it more effective than a standard ice pack?
The Cryo Cuff utilizes a synergistic two-part therapy system to accelerate recovery. It combines continuous, controlled cold therapy with consistent, adjustable compression, whereas a standard ice pack offers only intermittent cold. The system includes an insulated cooler you fill with ice and water, which is connected via a tube to an anatomically designed cuff placed on your injury.
When elevated, the cooled water flows into the cuff, delivering cold and gentle pressure to reduce swelling and pain. This dual-action approach is clinically proven to be more effective than cold alone. The controlled, circulating cold avoids the risks of tissue damage associated with continuous direct ice application, while the compression helps manage inflammation more effectively, leading to a more comfortable and efficient recovery process.
What is the difference between the Cryo Cuff Gravity Cooler and Motorized Coolers, and which one should I choose?
Your choice depends on your priorities for convenience versus manual control. The Gravity Cooler is included with each cuff and operates by manually raising and lowering the cooler to regulate water flow and pressure. It is a proven, cost-effective option that offers you direct control over the therapy’s intensity.
The Motorized Cooler, purchased separately, features an integrated circuit that automatically and quietly pumps water, maintaining optimal temperature and pressure without any manual intervention. This hands-free system is ideal for post-surgical recovery or for those seeking maximum convenience, as it provides uninterrupted therapy even while you sleep or rest. Both systems are highly effective; the decision ultimately hinges on your preference for automation.
Can I use the Cryo Cuff for multiple body parts, and how do I ensure I select the correct size?
Yes, the Cryo Cuff system is modular and designed for versatility. You purchase a specific, anatomically shaped cuff for each joint (e.g., knee, shoulder, ankle), and this single cuff attaches to the universal cooler unit. This allows you to treat different injuries by investing in additional cuffs as needed, making the system a long-term solution for recovery.
For optimal results, proper sizing is crucial, especially for joints like the knee. An ill-fitting cuff cannot deliver effective compression or consistent cold coverage. Please consult the detailed sizing chart provided on the product page, using a soft measuring tape to determine the exact circumference of the joint. The cuff should fit snugly and align correctly with the anatomical contours to ensure the therapy targets the entire injured area effectively.
