Cryotherapy is a form of treatment that uses extremely cold conditions to encourage a physiological response from the body. It is a natural treatment that can enhance ones fitness, health and wellness which can lead to improvement in an individuals quality of life and happiness. There are many different methods that can be used like cold water exposure which includes ice baths and cold water submersion or dry cold exposure which include electricity or liquid nitrogen. In this article we will be discussing the different types of electric cryotherapy.
WHOLE BODY CRYOTHERAPY:
Electric whole body cryotherapy also know as WBC consists of briefly exposing the whole body to extremely cold air which can range from -80 to -120 °C. Users are required to wear minimal clothing but still cover their extremities by wearing gloves, socks and a hat/ headband. This will help protect the most vulnerable parts of the body from the extremely cold temperatures. To maximise the benefits, individuals can enjoy 3 minute bouts in the electric cryotherapy chambers. You can do this twice a day to promote healing, well-being and quality of life.
LOCALISED CRYOTHERAPY:
Another treatment is a smaller machine known as a localised cryotherapy device. This device is a smaller instrument that is localised to cooling a specific area. In addition, they don’t require much space. All that is required is a power source as cryoair machines use electricity to create the extremely cold temperatures required for treatment. You can target the cold air from the device over the specific body part causing pain and irritation. Once you have treated an area of the body, the cold air can then be placed on another part of the body should this be required by the client. You can aid recovery and rehabilitation from injury, surgery and joint problems with this device.
CRYO FACIAL DEVICE:
Cryo facials are another method of applying cryotherapy that is specifically designed for the neck and face. It provides a unique, non-invasive, pain free and highly effective natural treatment powered by electricity. It's easy to handle, so you can direct the air towards the desired area which creates instant results for tighter healthier skin by removing toxins and providing an instant analgesic effect.
