Cryon-X One Knee Cold Compression Therapy Unit – Rental (Pad Included to Keep)

Enjoy clinic-level cold compression therapy for your knee at home with the Cryon-X One. This lightweight, no-ice system includes your choice of knee pad, and the pad is yours to keep after the rental ends.

Why choose the Cryon-X One for knee recovery?

The Cryon-X One is designed for patients and clinics who want effective cold compression without the hassle of ice. The unit weighs approximately 5 kg, making it easy to move between rooms, take to appointments or use in different areas of your home. Because the system does not require ice, there is no lifting heavy ice buckets, no constant refilling and no mess.

Cryon-X One combines controlled cold therapy with intermittent compression to help reduce swelling, manage pain and support faster recovery after knee surgery or injury. It is a practical choice for patients who want a modern, low-maintenance alternative to traditional ice-based machines.

What’s included with your knee rental

  • Cryon-X One cold compression control unit (no ice required)
  • Your choice of knee pad:
    • Articulating knee pad
    • Cylindrical knee pad
  • Connection hose and power adapter
  • Operating instructions and basic cleaning guidelines
  • Prepaid return shipping label for the control unit (Canada-wide)

The knee pad is a single-patient item and stays with you after the rental. Only the control unit, hose and accessories are returned.

Choosing your knee pad: articulating vs cylindrical

  • Articulating knee pad: Designed to move with the knee during flexion and extension. This style is often preferred after ACL reconstruction, meniscus surgery or total knee replacement, when you are gradually increasing your range of motion.
  • Cylindrical knee pad: A wrap-style pad that provides even cold and compression around the knee. It is a good option for general knee swelling, ligament sprains and non-surgical knee pain.

If you are not sure which pad is best for your recovery, contact us and we can help you choose based on your surgery, injury and activity level.

Typical uses for Cryon-X One knee rental

  • Post-operative knee care (ACL, PCL, meniscus and total knee replacement)
  • Knee ligament sprains and sports injuries
  • Rehabilitation after arthroscopic knee procedures
  • Knee osteoarthritis flare-ups and chronic swelling
  • Post-injury pain and inflammation control

Cold compression therapy is commonly used to help reduce swelling, decrease pain, support joint function and make it easier to participate in physiotherapy exercises.

How the Cryon-X One system works

The Cryon-X One circulates cooled fluid through the knee pad while applying intermittent compression around the joint. This combination helps move excess fluid, reduce inflammation and create a more comfortable environment for healing. Because the device does not rely on melting ice, cooling is more consistent and there is no need to empty and refill an ice reservoir throughout the day.

Lighter, no-ice design for easier daily use

  • Approximate unit weight of 5 kg for easy lifting and repositioning.
  • No ice required – the system cools without large bags of ice or heavy water reservoirs.
  • Less daily maintenance and fewer temperature fluctuations compared to ice-based machines.
  • More convenient for patients recovering alone or with limited help at home.

This makes Cryon-X One an attractive option if you want simple, reliable cold compression without managing ice, water and heavy containers during your recovery.

Rental terms, shipping and coverage

  • Flexible rental periods in weekly blocks so you can match the rental to your recovery timeline (2 week minimum).
  • Fast Canada-wide shipping to your home, clinic or discharge destination.
  • Prepaid return label included for easy return of the control unit.
  • You keep your knee pad at the end of the rental for future flare-ups or long-term knee management.

In many cases, private insurance and provincial workers’ compensation plans may help cover the cost of cold compression rentals when prescribed as part of a rehabilitation programme. Check with your insurer, case manager or physiotherapist for details.

Planning knee surgery? Booking your Cryon-X One rental in advance ensures the unit arrives in time for your discharge so you can start cold compression therapy on day one at home. We try to have the unit arrive a few days before the surgery date (which is considered day 1 of the rental period) to give you time to review the system and set it up.

Cryon-X One vs Game Ready knee systems

We also offer Game Ready knee rentals. Both systems provide high-quality cold compression, but there are important differences that may help you decide which one is right for you.

Which knee system should you choose?

  • Choose Cryon-X One if you want a lightweight, no-ice system that is easy to move, simple to maintain and includes a knee pad you keep for ongoing use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click on the question to reveal the answer!
What is included in the Cryon-X One knee rental?

Your rental includes the Cryon-X One cold compression control unit, your choice of knee pad (articulating or cylindrical), a power adapter, connection hose, instructions, and a prepaid return label for the control unit. The knee pad is yours to keep and does not get returned.

Do I return the knee pad at the end of the rental?

No. The knee pad is a single-patient item and stays with you for long-term use. Only the Cryon-X control unit, hose, and accessories are returned using the prepaid label.

How do I choose between the articulating and cylindrical knee pad?

The articulating pad is designed to move with the knee during bending and straightening, making it ideal after ACL surgery, meniscus repairs, and total knee replacement. The cylindrical pad is a wrap-style option better suited for general swelling, ligament sprains, and non-surgical knee pain. If you’re unsure, contact us and we can help recommend the right option for your recovery.

How do I choose between the S/M and L/XL universal knee wrap?

Choose the S/M (14") wrap if you have a smaller or average-sized leg, or if you typically wear a small or medium knee brace. Choose the L/XL (23") wrap if you have a larger knee, thigh, or calf circumference, or if you usually wear a large or XL knee brace. The L/XL option also provides more wrap length above and below the knee for added stability. If you are in between sizes, most patients prefer the L/XL for easier fastening and better overall coverage.

How often can I use cold compression on my knee?

Cold compression units like Cryon-X and Game Ready are designed for repeated use and can be used more frequently than traditional ice packs. A common guideline from cold-therapy manufacturers is up to 30 minutes per session, 3–4 times daily, especially during the first 1–2 weeks after surgery. Because continuous-flow systems offer consistent, controlled cooling—not extreme ice temperatures—many patients comfortably use them for longer durations throughout the day to manage pain and swelling. Always monitor your skin for comfort and follow your surgeon or physiotherapist’s recommendations.

Always monitor your skin for comfort and follow your surgeon or physiotherapist’s recommendations.

Can the pad be applied directly to my skin?

Yes, Cryon-X pads can be placed directly on the skin. However, right after surgery or when an incision is still healing, it is best to place a thin layer—such as gauze, a light cloth, or a surgical dressing—over the incision area for added protection and hygiene. Once healing improves, most patients switch to direct skin contact for optimal cold transfer.

What is the minimum rental period?

The minimum rental period is 2 weeks. Most post-surgical patients benefit from at least 2–3 weeks of daily cold compression during the early stages of healing.

Will I receive an email from Cryon-X after placing my rental order?

Yes. After you place your rental order, you will receive an email from Cryon-X containing a secure application form. This form is required to complete your rental setup and confirm your delivery details.

Why do I need to provide my credit card information in the Cryon-X application?

Cryon-X requires a valid credit card to secure your rental. A small temporary charge is placed on your card and refunded immediately. This verifies the card and helps prevent fraudulent or unauthorized rentals. No additional charges are made unless the rental is extended or equipment is not returned.

When will the Cryon-X unit be delivered?

Your Cryon-X One unit is shipped a few days before your rental period begins. This gives you time to receive the system, confirm that it works properly, and review the setup instructions before starting your recovery. Your rental period officially begins on the scheduled start date, not the delivery date.

How much does the Cryon-X One rental cost and what happens if I need to extend it?

The minimum rental period is 2 weeks for $650. If you need the unit longer, you can extend the rental for $325 per week. The weekly extension price is always the same, and you can continue extending as long as you need simply by contacting us.

Is the Cryon-X One safe for home use?

Yes. Cryon-X is designed for safe supervised home use. Always follow your healthcare provider’s guidance, monitor the skin for redness or discomfort, and adjust session length or frequency if needed. If you experience unusual numbness, increased pain, or skin changes, pause treatment and consult your provider.

Is the Cryon-X One lighter than other cold therapy machines?

Yes. The Cryon-X One weighs approximately 5 kg, making it easier to move around the home compared to ice-based units like Game Ready, which become significantly heavier once filled with ice and water. This makes Cryon-X a good option for patients with limited mobility or who live alone.

Does Cryon-X require ice?

No. Cryon-X does not require any ice. It uses an electronically controlled cooling system, eliminating the need to lift heavy ice buckets or refill melting ice throughout the day. This makes daily use simpler and less taxing during recovery.

Can workers’ compensation or insurance cover this rental?

Many private insurance plans and provincial workers’ compensation boards may cover cold compression rentals when recommended as part of a rehabilitation plan. Check with your insurer or case manager, and keep your receipts for reimbursement.

Can I walk or exercise while using the Cryon-X One?

The unit should be used while resting or in a supported position. Do not walk or exercise with the pad and hose connected. Many patients use cold compression before or after physiotherapy exercises to help reduce swelling and pain.

Can I use the Cryon-X One in a clinic?

Yes. The system is portable and suitable for use in physiotherapy clinics, sports medicine centers, and workplace rehab settings. Many patients use the same unit at home and during their clinic appointments.
