Cryotherapy: basics and methods❄️

Today, cryotherapy has become a common practice, attracting more and more courageous people.💪🏽

But do you really know what’s behind this vast concept? What are the different types of cryotherapy? How can you tell them apart🤔

Without further ado, Cryo Control explains it all to you!💡

Cryotherapy is the term used to describe all treatments aimed at reducing body temperature without destroying tissue. In other words, cryotherapy is a medical technique in which the body is exposed to very low temperatures in order to stimulate its natural healing powers.🌬️👩‍⚕️

Increasingly used in sports medicine and more recently in aesthetics, it can be used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, improve recovery from injury or surgery and even lose weight!🏋️‍♂️💅💪 

In short, there are many benefits, but we’ll talk about them in a future article… 😉

But did you know that there are different types of cryotherapy? 🤓

Here are the main methods:

• Cold Bath Immersion (CWI): what we have been doing for 20 years (yes, 20 years already…). 🛁🔬

In fact, according to several scientific studies, it’s one of the most effective methods, depending on the protocols used! 

• “Cabin Cryotherapy” (CCE): The most popular, but not the most effective. This method involves immersing the whole body in a cold chamber, usually for 2 to 3 minutes at extremely low temperatures. ❄️⏱️

• The spray: the classic cold spray for immediate use traumas, minor injuries, bruises…💨🤕

• By contact with cold compresses.❄️🩹

• By exposure to jets of cold air. 🌬️

New methods are also emerging, particularly for beauty and beauty treatments.🧖🏼
