PRESENTS COMBAT PAIN & PROMOTE HEALING

SENSORY RECEPTORS OF SKIN Sensory receptors in 1 cm 2 of skin: 200 25 13 2 Pain Pressure Cold Heat Besides pain, our skin responds most effjciently to sensations of pressure and cold. SummitMedSystems.com

NEURO REFLEX STIMULATION THERAPY • Combines cold temperature and pressure to produce a neuro-refmexive response • Drastically lowers surface temperature of skin in seconds, causing a Thermal Shock • Uses the body’s own resources to combat pain and promote healing • Innovative, safe, and effective compared to other cold and pain therapies SummitMedSystems.com

THERMAL SHOCK: THE COOLING • Thermal Shock is the abrupt and drastic THERMAL SHOCK & ICE THERAPY CHANGE IN SURFACE TEMPERATURE OF SKIN lowering of the surface temperature of the skin 35 • Medical CO 2 gas from CRYOFOS treatment gun SURFACE TEMPERATURE OF SKIN ( °C ) 30 cools skin to 2-4° C in under 30 seconds 25 • Thermal Shock triggers a neuro-refmexive 20 response in the body 15 Ice Therapy • CRYOFOS delivers NRS Therapy through the 10 combination of Thermal Shock and pressure 5 10 20 30 40 50 60 TREATMENT TIME (min) SummitMedSystems.com

MEDICAL CO 2 GAS: THE PRESSURE Medical CO 2 gas with CRYOFOS Nitrogen “Chambers” • Hits the treatment area at -78° C • Cools environment around the skin • Applies up to 2 bars of pressure • NO pressure component • Localized treatment applied where needed • Treatment applied to majority of body • Compact and easily stored when not in use • Requires large area, potentially entire room • Designed to be mobile • Designed to be stationary • Can be transported from room to room • Very diffjcult to move once installed SummitMedSystems.com

TWO PATHWAYS TO THE BRAIN The key to NRS Therapy is the treatment of pain through the COMBINED effects of extreme cooling AND pressure. The pressure component of NRS Therapy allows for the treatment of pain via two pathways to the Thalamus. Lateral Spinothalamic Tract (Pain & Temperature) Ventral Spinothalamic Tract (Touch & Pressure) Potentiation is achieved via the conduction of BOTH tracts! SummitMedSystems.com

PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF NRS THERAPY Analgesic Effect Near immediate pain relief through the inhibition of pain receptors within 30 seconds Anti-Infmammatory Effect Reduced concentrations of pro-infmammatory mediators like prostaglandins and histamine Vasomotor Effect Rapid vasoconstriction has a draining effect on tissue and the reactive deep vasodilation increases blood fmow Myo-Relaxant Effect Relaxation of muscle fjbers as a result of myostatic refmex in the medulla SummitMedSystems.com

TREATMENT TECHNIQUE AND SAFETY Treatment Distance 100% SAFE TO USE The easiest way to establish the appropriate treatment distance is to gradually approach the skin with the treatment CRYOFOS is equipped with gun engaged. The observance of fjne crystal formation on the a safety shut-off feature to surface of the skin, signals the optimal treatment distance. prevent the potential harmful Treatment Motion effects of exposing skin to -78° C temperatures. Treatment should be delivered with smooth and constant motion across the treatment area. Prolonged, sustained treatment application to a single area will automatically VIEW TREATMENT VIDEOS > trigger the CRYOFOS safety shut-off feature. SummitMedSystems.com
