Summary of findings: whole‐body cryotherapy (WBC) vs control (no WBC or passive rest)

Muscle pain at rest · physically‐active adults partaking in exercise designed to produce delayed onset muscle soreness (most trial participants were male)

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings: whole‐body cryotherapy (WBC) changes muscle soreness: pain at rest (VAS) compared with control (no WBC or passive rest) (very low certainty).

It is very uncertain whether high‐intensity changes usual pain (short‐term) VAS (0 to 10; higher scores mean worse pain) compared with low‐intensity exercise programmes (very low certainty).
