Cryotherapy is the art of exposing the body to subzero temperatures for a short period of time. This causes adrenaline to be released, which boosts blood circulation and an increase in oxygen being sent to the cells. Overall, this stimulates the natural healing processes as a by-product. Over time, it has observed that many famous athletes and fitness oriented personalities are incorporating cryotherapy into their daily routine. Cristiano Ronaldo Floyd Mayweather, Lebron James, Steph Curry are just a few avid users of cryotherapy for recovery, fitness and healing.

All athletes sustain injuries at some point, from professional sports people to fitness enthusiasts to people who just play sport to relax. These injuries are often treated by applying ice packs to the injured area, a common remedy. Athletes are also seen to have ice baths as part of their routine for the same benefits, the only setback is that ice baths are painful and most athletes dread this part of their routine and holding an ice pack to the injured area for prolonged periods of time is not necessarily viable. Cryotherapy is an easy, quick, painless and effective method providing more benefits in a more efficient and practical way.
