Skin Rejuvenation with Cryotherapy

Whole Body Cryotherapy May Reduce Cellulite and Fight Ageing

We all want to feel and look our very best but finding the best, safest and quickest way isn’t easy with the myriad of treatments available. Imagine a method that takes only 3 minutes per session and is affordable.

One of the most requested anti-ageing treatments by women is for the treatment of cellulite.  Around 90% of women have it to some degree or another and it can get worse with age as hormonal changes affect tissue breakdown and collagen production. Topical products can be ineffective at removing it and diet and exercise may only slightly improve it.  However, a new way to possibly reduce cellulite is with Whole Body Cryotherapy treatments.

Whole Body Cryotherapy was firstly developed in 1978 in Japan by Professor Toshiro Yamaguchi as a medical treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and since then it’s been refined and used for many health benefits which can include skin rejuvenation, cellulite, weight loss and anti-ageing treatments.

The reason Whole Body Cryotherapy may help you visibly reduce ageing and cellulite is that during your Cryotherapy treatment, the sudden exposure to extreme cold causes the blood vessels in the dermal layer of the skin to contract.  As soon as you finish your treatment, your blood vessels then do the exact opposite – they dilate.

This process can oxygenate the blood and healing enzymes and nutrients can be delivered to every part of your body. The production of collagen can be increased which may improve elasticity and firmness of your skin and therefore help to reduce cellulite.  The immune system may also be boosted and the lymphatic system can move toxins out of the body.

How Many Treatments Should You Have?

In order to achieve the maximum anti-ageing results with Cryotherapy, in addition to your healthy eating and exercise plan, it’s recommend that do consistent, regular Cryotherapy treatments as the benefits can be cumulative.

Feel Exhilarated

Cryotherapy can not only improve your appearance but the experience can make you feel fantastic. The additional rush of ‘feel good’ endorphins can help combat the ageing effects of fatigue which may leave you feeling refreshed and exhilarated. 

What Happens During a Cryotherapy Treatment?

With whole body Cryotherapy, the body is exposed to extremely low temperatures for up to 3 minutes. During this time, the average skin temperature drops whilst the core body temperature remains unchanged.  Once you are in the Cryosauna your head and neck area are not covered by the chamber and so are exposed to room air above the device. A fine chilled oxygen & nitrogen mist is then sprayed into the chamber in order to lower the temperature.  You are never left alone.  A trained therapist stays with you throughout your treatment and you can leave the chamber at any time you wish during the treatment.
