When Lance Stroll injured himself ahead of the 2024 Formula One season, many wondered if he would be ready in time. In a sport where fractions of a second separate champions from challengers, even a minor injury can threaten months of preparation. Stroll’s comeback wasn’t just a testament to his determination — it also highlighted the growing role of cutting-edge recovery technology in modern sport.
At the heart of his rapid rehabilitation was Kaasen, an advanced localised cryotherapy device that’s changing the way athletes recover.
The Need for Speed — On and Off the Track
Recovering from injury in Formula One is a race in itself. Drivers must maintain peak physical and mental condition to withstand the enormous physical forces of racing at over 300 km/h. For Stroll, the clock was ticking. Traditional recovery methods, like physiotherapy and rest, were crucial but not enough on their own to meet the intense demands of the F1 calendar.
He needed a solution that could rapidly reduce inflammation, manage pain, and speed up tissue healing — all without setting back his conditioning.
That’s where Kaasen came in.
Precision Recovery with Kaasen
Unlike traditional cryotherapy, which often involves exposing the whole body to freezing temperatures, Kaasen offers targeted treatment. Using controlled bursts of cryogenically cooled air, therapists can apply cold therapy exactly where it’s needed — directly to the injured area.
For Stroll, Kaasen sessions quickly became a vital part of his recovery routine. Treatments helped to:
Minimise swelling and bruising
Alleviate pain without over-reliance on medication
Promote faster healing of muscles and connective tissues
Maintain flexibility and strength during rehab
This targeted approach meant Stroll could stay active in his recovery, continuing essential training and physio without being sidelined for extended periods.
Back Behind the Wheel
Thanks to a combination of expert medical care, physical therapy, and Kaasen’s cutting-edge cryotherapy treatments, Lance Stroll was able to return to the cockpit far sooner than many expected. He made it back in time for critical pre-season testing, ensuring he was race-ready when the 2024 season lights went out.
His swift recovery not only kept his championship hopes alive but also set a new benchmark for how elite athletes can manage injuries with the right technology at their side.
Changing the Game for Athlete Recovery
Lance Stroll’s comeback story is just one example of how Kaasen is transforming recovery in high-performance sport. By helping athletes heal faster and more effectively, Kaasen isn’t just treating injuries — it’s keeping dreams alive and seasons on track.
In a world where every moment counts, Kaasen is proving to be a game-changer — both on the track and beyond.
