Cryotherapy is a cool therapy treatment that involves the use of freezing or near-freezing temperatures. Cryotherapy is a safe way to prevent swelling and inflammation by reducing pain relief and muscle fatigue from daily life or intense training and exercise.
Cryotherapy provides both physical and mental benefits. Cryotherapy reduces pain and inflammation, it can improve joint function as well as support exercise recovery, improve performance and help with mental disorders. According to medicalnewstoday.com in a small 2008 study it found that people with depression or anxiety, using cryotherapy reduced their symptoms by at least 50 percent.
The difference between cryotherapy and CoolSculpting ® is that CoolSculpting uses cold temperatures in a non-invasive way on a person’s problem areas to eliminate fat cells. Many beauty spas use this machine to help their clients with stubborn belly fat or fat that traditional diet and exercise cannot remedy. In contrast, Cryotherapy is a recovery non-invasive session designed to heal sore muscles and reduce inflammation post-workout and pre-workout.
Cryotherapy is a good combination as a part of a workout pre- or post-workout routine for athletes to treat muscle injury and faster recovery. When your body temperature decreases, blood flows to your body which starts your body’s muscle recovery, cryotherapy is also suitable for reducing inflammation and sore muscles. On whole-body cryotherapy (WBC) is the same as taking an ice bath, which many athletes do as part of their daily routine.
