Just like ice, cryotherapy promotes reduced swelling and increased healing in the body by helping you relax and find relief from pain.
Cryotherapy helps the blood vessels constrict and reduce inflammation throughout the entire body.
Cooling has been shown to reduce cellulite, increase cell regeneration, and tighten the skin by increasing collagen production.
Our online treatment planning tool matches you with personalized recommendations based on your unique concerns.
When you visit us for cryotherapy in Nashville, we recommend wearing loose-fitting clothing that’s easy to change in and out of. You’ll be getting undressed before stepping into the chamber. Most patients opt to wear a bathing suit.
For your protection, we’ll provide gloves and slippers and you should remove all metal jewelry and avoid using any lotions or topical products beforehand.
Simply put, cryotherapy feels like being cold. The chamber reaches between -225 and -250 degrees Fahrenheit. Because you’re only exposed to these temperatures for a couple of minutes, it’s completely safe. Towards the end of the session, you might feel “pins and needles” sensations as if your arm or leg were falling asleep, but it will go away as soon as the treatment ends.
Generally, 2 to 3 times a week is an optimal schedule for the average person. Professional athletes or those who are very active might use cryotherapy more frequently, as might those who are using cryotherapy to help with healing from an injury. During your consultation, we’ll discuss the best schedule for your needs and your budget.
It’s common to use cryotherapy prior to a workout to help increase the range of motion and blood flow. Following your workout with a cryotherapy session is a great way to help the body cool down and prevent potential injuries. We do recommend you shower prior to your appointment.
