History of Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is dated back to 3500 BC and can be found in some ancient Egyptian text. There are many names associated with cryotherapy origins and development worth mentioning. Hypocrites a Greek physician used cold therapy to treat pain, injuries, trauma and swelling in 400 B.C. In 1050 A.D. Anglo-Saxon monks recorded using cold therapy as a local anesthetic. Dr. James Arnott a cryotherapy pioneer was instrumental in modern cryotherapy. in 1845 Arnott discovered that was an effective treatment for cryosurgical treatment of neuralgia and migraine headaches. Arnott also treated certain cancers such as breast cancer, uterine cancer and different types of skin cancer. He also advocated for cryotherapy to treat acne and other skin conditions.
Science behind Cryotherapy
Localized high impact cryotherapy works by applying extreme cold to the treatment area. Extreme cold applied to the injured area stimulates oxygenated blood flow, reducing tension and inflammation. Since the outer layer of skin is lowered, capillaries and blood vessels undergo vasoconstriction, immediately followed by vasodilation. This causes the body to release toxins and feel-good endorphins. The process also causes fat cells to die (apoptosis) in a process called cryolipolysis.
What is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy also known as cold therapy is the local or general use of extreme cold to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue. It is also used to treat pain, lesions, reduce fat, treat cellulite and other things. To create this severe cold, the use of a substance like liquid nitrogen or argon gas is used. Temperatures can get up to -198°c.
