What Is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is the science of exposing the body to subzero temperatures in order to stimulate physical and mental health benefits. It reduces inflammation in the body by boosting an anti-inflammatory chemical.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is an innovative treatment based on the localized or full body use of intense cold for short bursts of time to reduce the surface temperature of the body to 4°C. This drop boosts blood circulation, which in turn results in a higher metabolic and caloric burn rate. The increased circulation of healthy nutrients in the body stimulates various health benefits.
The cutting-edge technology is proven to yield impressive results in the areas of performance, recovery, wellness, beauty, and slimming. With its versatility and effectiveness, cryotherapy is a powerful, non-invasive treatment that delivers an incredible amount of benefits and can be used for a multitude of health and wellness purposes.
