Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is a non-invasive method of exposing the body to freezing temperatures to promote recovery, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall wellness. Using a specialized chamber, such as the XR cryotherapy chamber, nitrogen vapor rapidly cools the skin’s surface to a temperature as low as -220°F. This process triggers various beneficial responses in the body, including increased blood circulation and the release of endorphins. Commonly used to treat areas like the back, legs, arms, and joints, cryotherapy is popular among those suffering from muscle soreness, joint pain, and inflammation.
