Introducing Cryotherapy: The Coolest New Health Trend In Town

 

 So what on earth is Cryotherapy? And how is freezing your body to a -150°C a good thing?

 

Whole-body Cryotherapy has been used in Europe and Japan for more than three decades. During a whole-body Cryotherapy session, the body is exposed to temperatures ranging between -130 °C and -150 °C with cold air for 1 to 3 minutes in a Cryochamber. When the body is cooled at such a rapid rate, it goes into ‘survival mode’, causing the blood to flow to the most vital organs in order to relay more oxygen and nutrients. Upon exiting the Cryochamber, enriched and less-toxic blood is flushed back into the rest of the body. The first thing you notice is an enormous rush of endorphins and energy. And there’s another benefit: Cryotherapy is also an effective method for weight loss. In one whole-body Cryotherapy session, you burn 800 calories in 3 minutes.

 

 

Cryotherapy has been used by many athletes to reduce muscle inflammation and fatigue, and to boost their recovery post-workout. These include Cristiano Ronaldo, Shaquille O’Neal, LeBron James, Michael Phelps, Floyd Mayweather, the New York Knicks, the NBA’s Phoenix Suns and Leicester City (EPL Football Club). Kate Moss, Jessica Alba, Demi Moore, Jennifer Aniston are just a few of the many celebrities who use Cryotherapy on a regular basis.

 

 

Alchemy, Mumbai brings whole-body Cryotherapy for the first time to the country. Neville Wadia (Director – Alchemy) and John Gloster, (former physiotherapist of the Indian Cricket Team), who also serves as the Head of Physiotherapy at the center oversees the process.

 

Along with the whole-body Cryotherapy, you can also try out localized Cryotherapy for inflammations and also Cryo-facials for a quick boost for your face. Cryo-facials are effective before parties and events for immediate glowing skin, reduction of eye bags and tired eyes. It works well after parties too.

 

 

I personally have very good tolerance towards cold temperatures so other than a mild shiver, I wasn’t uncomfortable at all. The Cryo-facial feels great and is very relaxing. Your face looks and feels healthier and eye bags and dark circles vanished almost instantly.

 

You realise the effect of the whole-body Cryotherapy after a few hours. My energy levels escalated, along with increased hunger and alertness. I ate 8 huge meals the next day and could work out much longer than usual and even lift more weights than I regularly do. There was a sudden improvement in my cardio performance too. It did affect my sleep cycle but that smoothened out within two nights. If used on a regular basis, whole-body Cryotherapy helps you become more energetic, push yourself more and physically become stronger and more alert.
