BENEFITS OF CRYOTHERAPY
Reduces migraine symptoms
Cryotherapy can help treat migraines by cooling and numbing nerves in the neck area. Studies show that applying a neck wrap containing two frozen ice packs to the carotid arteries in the neck significantly reduced migraine pain in those tested. It’s thought that this works by cooling the blood passing through intracranial vessels. The carotid arteries are close to the skin’s surface and accessible.
Numbs Nerve Irritation
Many athletes have been using cryotherapy to treat injuries for years, and one of the reasons why is that it can numb pain. The cold can actually numb an irritated nerve. Doctors will treat the affected area with a small probe inserted into the nearby tissue. This can help treat pinched nerves or neuromas, chronic pain, or even acute injuries.
Helps Treat Mood Disorders
The ultra-cold temperatures in whole-body cryotherapy can cause physiological hormonal responses. This includes the release of adrenaline, noradrenaline, and endorphins. This can have a positive effect on those experiencing mood disorders like anxiety and depression. Studies shows that whole-body cryotherapy was actually effective in short-term treatment for both.
Reduces Arthritic Pain
Localised cryotherapy treatment isn’t the only thing that’s effective at treating serious conditions; whole-body cryotherapy significantly reduced pain in people with arthritis. They found that the treatment was well-tolerated. It also allowed for more aggressive physiotherapy and occupational therapy as a result. This ultimately made rehabilitation programs more effective.
May Help Treat Low-Risk Tumours
Targeted, localised cryotherapy can be used as a cancer treatment. In this context, it’s called “cryosurgery.” It works by freezing cancer cells and surrounding them with ice crystals. It’s currently being used to treat some low-risk tumours for certain types of cancer, including prostate cancer.
Treats Atopic Dermatitis And Other Skin Conditions
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with signature symptoms of dry and itchy skin. Because cryotherapy can improve antioxidant in the blood and can simultaneously reduce inflammation, it makes sense that both localised and whole-body cryotherapy can help treat atopic dermatitis. Another study examined its effect for acne, targeting the sebaceous glands.
