Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy involves exposing the body to sub-zero temperatures for a short period to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall wellness. It’s often used for skin rejuvenation and pain relief.

Benefits of Cryotherapy:

  • Skin Rejuvenation: Helps tighten skin, reduce wrinkles, and promote collagen production for a youthful appearance.
  • Reduced Inflammation: Effective in reducing swelling and pain associated with various conditions, including arthritis and sports injuries.
  • Boosts Metabolism: Can stimulate fat loss by increasing metabolic rate, promoting weight management.
  • Pain Relief: Provides relief from chronic pain by numbing nerves and reducing muscle soreness.
  • Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow, improving oxygen and nutrient delivery to tissues for faster recovery.
  • Mental Clarity and Mood Enhancement: The cold exposure stimulates the release of endorphins, which can improve mood and mental clarity.

Procedure Overview

  • Preparation: The skin is prepped, and the target area is exposed to extremely cold temperatures for a short duration.
  • Cold Exposure: The treatment involves liquid nitrogen or cold air applied to the skin or body. Depending on the type of therapy, it can last anywhere from 2 to 5 minutes.
  • Post-Treatment Care: After the session, the body begins to naturally warm up, and the treated areas may feel tingling or mild discomfort. The effects typically last for several hours to a few days.
