Cryotherapy

During a whole-body cryo session, you might feel like you're at the North Pole; you stand in a chamber where cold dry air is circulated, exposing you to temperatures ranging from -80°C to -110°C for 3 minutes. This therapy offers several health benefits.

The extremely low temperature stimulates the body to respond to the cold stress by constricting blood vessels and directing blood towards vital organs to protect them. Once the person exits the cryo chamber, the blood vessels rapidly dilate, allowing oxygen-rich blood to flow throughout the body.

We can advise you on the safety and suitability of the treatment for your specific situation.

Benefits

  • Reduction of inflammation: Suitable for people with conditions such as arthritis and fibromyalgia.
  • Pain relief: Can provide temporary pain relief for muscle and joint pain.
  • Improved recovery after exercise: (Top) athletes often use whole body cryotherapy to speed up muscle recovery and reduce fatigue. It helps in faster recovery after injuries.
  • Stress reduction and improved sleep: The cold stimulus can help reduce stress and improve mood and sleep. During a session, you produce a lot of endorphins and serotonin.
  • Overall well-being: More and more people are working preventively on their health. Cryotherapy gives you energy, boosts your immune system, and helps you feel even better and more relaxed.
  • Increased oxygen levels in the blood: This allows tissues to recover faster; better blood circulation.

Contraindications

Whole Body Cryotherapy is safe for most people, but there are some contraindications. People with the following medical conditions should consult with a doctor before trying Whole Body Cryotherapy:

  1. Heart problems: People with a history of heart conditions, such as unstable angina, arrhythmias, or heart attacks, should avoid cryotherapy due to the risk of increased stress on the heart.
  2. High blood pressure: Cryotherapy can temporarily increase blood pressure during treatment. People with uncontrolled high blood pressure should be cautious and consult with their doctor before trying cryotherapy.
  3. Severe respiratory conditions: Individuals with severe respiratory conditions, such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), should be cautious, as the cold air can affect breathing.
  4. Neurological conditions: People with neurological conditions such as epilepsy should avoid cryotherapy, as the cold stress may trigger seizures.
  5. Pregnancy: Pregnant women should avoid cryotherapy due to the lack of data on long-term effects and potential risks to the fetus.
  6. Cold intolerance: People who are particularly sensitive to cold or prone to hypothermia should be cautious with cryotherapy.
  7. Raynaud's syndrome: People with Raynaud's syndrome, which causes blood vessels to constrict in response to cold temperatures, should avoid whole-body cryotherapy due to the risk of exacerbating symptoms.
