whole body cryotherapy (wbc) is stepping into a -110-140° small room and standing there for 3-6 minutes. cryo could also be submerging in a really cold bath. cryo could also be local cryo and just applying an ice pack to a sore knee. for this note, i'm referring to wbc.
we are all inflamed bc inflammation is a natural part of healing (think bruising around an injury but that actually points the immune system to where it's needed).
what's unfortunate tho is that between our shite diets and the constant influx of shite news, our nervous systems are amped up and then our immune systems also get stuck in pro inflammation mode (the two systems are intricately connected). the whole point of cryo is to bring balance back so the immune system can switch to anti inflammatory mode. thus calming your nervous system down too.
