Cryotherapy, sometimes known as cold therapy, is the local or general use of low temperatures in medical therapy. Cryotherapy may be used to treat a variety of tissue lesions. The most prominent use of the term refers to the surgical treatment, specifically known as cryosurgery or cryoablation. Cryosurgery is the application of extremely low temperatures to destroy abnormal or diseased tissue and is used most commonly to treat skin conditions. Cryotherapy is used in an effort to relieve muscle pain, sprains and swelling after soft tissue damage or surgery. It is commonly used to accelerate recovery in athletes post exercise for decades. Cryotherapy decreases the temperature of tissue surface to minimize hypoxic cell death, edema accumulation, and muscle spasms, all of which ultimately alleviate discomfort and inflammation. It can be a range of treatments from the application of ice packs or immersion in ice baths (generally known as cold therapy), to the use of cold chambers.

CR7 : récupération par cryothérapie (froid) & sauna (chaud)

La cryothérapie corps entier : c’est comme un sauna “à l’envers”. La pièce peut accueillir plusieurs personnes. Elle est refroidie grâce à l’électricité, comme un immense congélateur. Le corps est intégralement exposé au froid , y compris la tête ; pieds, mains, nez, bouche et oreilles protégés. Température : -110 °C après avoir traversé successivement une ou deux salles à -10 °C et -60 °C. Avantage : possibilité de traiter les douleurs situées au niveau de la tête (migraines).
