Cryotherapy Benefits
Cryotherapy elicits a positive response from the body to the external stimulus of the extreme cold temperature. As well as improving sports performance and pain management, the body response has many other beneficial effects that contribute to the overall feeling of wellness.
Pain Management
Living in constant pain has a severe impact on your quality of life.
Cryotherapy reduces the impact of pain and provides a liberating feeling as the relief from symptoms enhances your sense of wellbeing. Continued use of cryotherapy can help alleviate the symptoms causing the pain.

Boost Immunity
Cryotherapy can enhance the immune system to counteract viruses and other forms of illnesses. Skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis can be effectively treated using cryotherapy and the fluid shunting that takes places enhances blood circulation.
Mental Health & Wellbeing
The feelings of wellbeing are enhanced through cryotherapy. Post-treatment users report a feeling of euphoria, with a surge of positivity and being completely refreshed, having shaken off any pre-treatment feelings of anxiety and depression.
These feelings are prolonged and help users to feel better prepared to deal with stress and the complications of everyday living.
Sleep & Relaxation
The power of a good night’s sleep cannot be underestimated. Cryotherapy literally chills you out, enabling a deeper and relaxed state of mind and helping your body to fight the negative effects of disease, stress, depression and anxiety.
Heart Health
Cryotherapy has positive benefits for heart health. Studies have shown that cryotherapy can help you to reduce oxidative stress, a primary cause of heart disease as well as enhancing your heart rate variability. Enabling you to manage stress better, feel better overall, and increase your health and wellness.
Anti-Ageing
Cryotherapy can help to counter the effects of advancing years. With its combination of pain relief, reduced oxidative stress and the flushing of toxins in the body, coupled with the positive effects on our skin, cryotherapy can keep the years at bay, inside and out.
Weight Loss
Cryotherapy is shown to increase fat-burning levels and raise user’s metabolic rate.
The treatment stimulates the production of brown adipose fat or “good fat”. The cold temperatures promote the brown fat to ‘burn’ white fat (cellulite). This thermogenesis process leads to a leaner body mass.
Beauty & Skin Care
Rejuvenating properties of the cold help to protect against the signs of ageing. Promoting collagen production, reducing inflammation and the removal of fine lines, wrinkles and stretch marks are just some of the benefits of cryotherapy.
