Cryotherapy

Overview

Cryotherapy is a non-surgical and non-invasive medical, physiotherapy cosmetic therapy treatment. The patient enters a chamber of -60C for 30 seconds, safely preparing the patient to then enter another chamber of -110C for 2 mins and 30 seconds. This technique makes the body react in order to maintain the temperature and start speeding up the body’s metabolism to breakdown fat and cellulite. It also has a wide range of rehabilitative benefits, helps with muscle recovery and sports injury. Not only that! It does much more! It also tones and sculpts the body.

Treatment Benefits

Accelerated Muscle Recovery

Cryotherapy is a method that accelerates the recovery process by conducting vasoconstriction, which decreases the blood flow to the muscles and thus aids in the elimination of the metabolic waste products through the blood circulation. This particular medical procedure drastically lowers the sensitivity of the nerves and relieves the Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS), which results in a quicker return to the training.

Reduction of Chronic Inflammation

Systemic anti-inflammatory response of the body is one of the first reactions to extreme cold that lowers pro-inflammatory cytokines and enhances the levels of anti-inflammatory markers. This mechanism of action provides great relief for diseases associated with joint stiffness as well as chronic ones such as rheumatoid arthritis or fibromyalgia.

Metabolic and Energy Boost

The body is challenged by cold-induced thermogenesis to burn a lot of calories so it can get back to the same core temperature, and this process lasts for several hours, thus stimulating the metabolism. It can help with weight management and the activation of calorie-burning brown fat is increased.

Skin Rejuvenation and Acne Control

The procedure leads to the formation of collagen and also pumps up blood flow which consequently leads to closing the pores and making the skin more elastic. Additionally, the treatment has an anti-inflammatory effect which calms the acne breakouts that are currently happening and lessens the surrounding area’s redness thus giving you a complexion that is clearer and more even-toned.
