In theory, one could enjoy the benefits of Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) every day for the rest of your life. Of course, the same could be said for devouring a never-ending mountain of chocolate cake, so let’s be practical going forward. All things in moderation, and a little of what you fancy does you good!
Cryotherapy for Best Results
Depending on the condition for which you are using WBC to fix what ails you, an initial program of 7 – 10 treatments is the recommendation. These should be in close succession, one-to-two days apart over a three-week spread for optimum effect. Following that, you can reduce the treatment sessions and space them further apart or add more sessions on.
Regular Treatment Programs Work Best
A good example would be to visit your preferred Cryotherapy center once a week, or at least once a fortnight to maintain the best results. A quick observation at this point, you do not have to be on the mend from an injury or recovering from surgery. WBC is incredibly therapeutic even for those in good health. Just as you would not stop toning up at your local gym when you achieve a certain fitness level, you can enjoy the benefits of cryotherapy whenever you like.
Revisiting the Benefits of Whole Body Cryotherapy
Before deciding on how frequently you plan to visit your Cryotherapy Studio, why not contact your nearest treatment point to set up an initial screening session. You will find friendly and experienced consultants eager to share their knowledge with you. They will advise you on the best WBC to suit your circumstances. Essentially, whole body cryotherapy focuses on three basic principles to achieve the desired results.
These are Freeze, Relieve and Recover modes:
Freeze Control – Temperature drops between -190 and -256 degrees Fahrenheit for around 1.5 to 3 minutes. In the Cryosauna chamber, nitrogen vapor envelopes your body and the chill triggers natural physiological responses.
Relieve – Your body enters survival mode during the freeze as your brain performs a quick crosscheck of physiological and metabolic functions. This helps boost the anti-inflammatory protocol to heal traumas
Recover – Research suggests that Whole Body Cryotherapy could provide immediate health benefits, both short and long term – we examine these benefits next
Note: As with any treatment program, it is imperative that you contact your health practitioner and inform them of your intentions.
Start Treatment Program and Health Benefits
Research indicates that patients do their first ten WBC sessions within thirty days, and then decide how often they would like to continue. Even at the first session, many benefits accumulate, including a rush of endorphins and better sleep patterns. Here are some of the other health benefits emanating from WBC treatment programs:
- Increases your metabolic rate and boosts the immune system
- Reverses autoimmune and other inflammatory disorders
- Arrests skin aging, poor skin elasticity, and cellulite
- Helps relieve depression, anxiety, and stress
- Addresses insomnia and chronic fatigue
- Helps ease rheumatoid arthritis pain
- Improves energy levels naturally
- Increases blood circulation
- Treats skin disorders
