Cryotherapy
Boost your immune system and reduce inflammation ensuring that you recover at an accelerated rate.
Cryotherapy Explained
Immersing yourself in an ice bath has long been seen as an effective way to recover from injuries, and stimulate the body. However, ice baths can be uncomfortable and unpleasant. Whilst the temperatures they reach are sub-optimal for triggering the body’s healing abilities.
At CryoCube, we offer whole-body Cryotherapy (WBC) in our state-of-the-art Cryochamber. Whole-body Cryotherapy provides all the benefits of the cold in a comfortable and controlled environment. WBC involves the application of extreme cold to the entire body. Allowing the cold air as much exposure to the skin as possible enhances the effect of the treatment making WBC the superior way to experience Cryotherapy.
Here are just a few of the many reported benefits of Cryotherapy
Pain Relief
Cryotherapy is an effective method for reducing inflammation and pain in the body. By exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures, Cryotherapy can help to numb the pain in muscles and joints. This can be particularly helpful for those with chronic pain or arthritis.
Skin Rejuvenation
Cryotherapy can help to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin. The cold temperatures promote increased blood flow to the skin, which can help to improve skin tone and texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote collagen production.
Improved Recovery
Cryotherapy is also an excellent tool for recovery after an intense workout or injury. The cold temperatures can help to reduce muscle soreness, inflammation, and swelling, helping the body to recover more quickly
Weight Loss
Cryotherapy can also aid in weight loss by stimulating the body’s metabolism. The cold temperatures cause the body to burn more calories to maintain its core temperature, which can lead to increased weight loss over time
Increased Energy
Cryotherapy can also help to boost energy levels and endurance. The cold temperatures can stimulate the body’s metabolism, increasing energy levels and promoting the release of endorphins, which can help to improve mood and mental clarity
Improved Sleep
Cryotherapy can also help to improve sleep quality. The cold temperatures can help to calm the nervous system and promote relaxation, leading to a more restful night’s sleep
Cryotherapy The Evidence
Cryotherapy has been shown to reduce inflammation, even in rheumatic disease. One study that was trying to understand the way in which this happened said, “local cryotherapy induces an intrajoint temperature decrease, which might downregulate several mediators involved in joint inflammation and destruction.”(Guillot et al., 2014) Inflammation can impinge on nerves, causing pain and if the inflammation can be reduced, so will the pain.
Long term repeated bouts of cryotherapy have been shown to decrease cortisol levels in the brain by around 30%. Cortisol is the stress hormone and therefore cryotherapy could potentially reduce stress and anxiety in users.
