Are you ready to enter a winter wonderland? While Naples may not offer snow, you can still experience the refreshing chill of winter with whole body cryotherapy. At Thrive IV Bar, we offer a cutting-edge CryoArctic Chamber designed to boost everything from energy and metabolism to sleep and immune system health. As temperatures drop, you’ll experience the unique, therapeutic benefits of cooling technology. Let’s take a closer look at how the process works and what you can expect.
What Is Cryotherapy?
Before we start unpacking the benefits of cryotherapy, it’s important to understand what this process is. Put simply, cryotherapy involves exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures for a short amount of time. One of the most well-known types is whole body cryotherapy, which utilizes a cold chamber. The cool temperatures then provide anti-inflammatory effects that can help muscles heal and recover.
At Thrive IV Bar, we deliver high-quality cryotherapy services with our nitrogen-based CryoArctic Chamber. Equipped with an excellent sound system, our chamber gives you a chance to unwind and revitalize. You’ll definitely feel the chill as temperatures drop all the way to -220º F (-140º C). In exchange for the intense cold, you’ll start to feel the resultsWAlk in just two to three minutes.
What Are the Benefits of Cryotherapy?
If you’ve never tried cryotherapy before, the concept might sound a bit strange. In theory, the idea of submerging yourself in icy, cold conditions sounds downright uncomfortable. In practice, however, it offers many unique healing benefits—especially after a particularly intense workout. Here are a few of the leading benefits:
- Physical benefits: The low temperatures associated with cryotherapy are known to reduce inflammation and pain while boosting energy and muscle recovery. These benefits are especially helpful when recovering from an exercise session or injury.
- Immune system health: When you exit the cryotherapy chamber and re-enter the warm world, blood is quickly delivered to your brain and extremities. This blood flow can boost cellular and organ function, which in turn helps strengthen the immune system.
- Mental health benefits: In addition to improving your physical health, cryotherapy offers mental health benefits. Increased blood flow to the brain is linked to improved concentration and awareness. Furthermore, cryotherapy encourages the nervous system to produce endorphins, which are hormones known to reduce stress and improve sleep habits.
- Weight loss: As your body is exposed to cold temperatures, your metabolic rate increases. Generally, faster metabolisms are linked to increased calorie burning and weight loss. The weight loss benefits of cryotherapy are especially helpful for post-menopausal women experiencing increased abdominal fat.
- Anti-aging properties: Cryotherapy doesn’t just make you feel better—it also makes you look better. The cold temperatures actually freeze the outer layers of skin, which then encourages your skin to produce more collagen. Increased collagen production is associated with smaller pores, reduced wrinkles and improved skin elasticity.
Whether you’re looking to quicken muscle recovery after workouts or burn fat due to hormonal changes, cryotherapy can help.
