Cryotherapy process
Cryotherapy stimulates receptors that respond only to cold. During the procedure, the body temperature drops by only 0.5 ° C and the skin temperature by a maximum of 3 ° C. The action of extreme cold on receptors induces a process that positively affects the nerve endings and induces a response in the body, producing hormones, increasing metabolism and reducing pain. As a result of exposure to extreme cold, hormones are activated and the body’s own corticoids are released in an amount necessary to eliminate inflammatory processes, pain inhibitors, endorphins – happiness hormones, adrenaline, testosterone and many other body beneficial substances.
