What Does Cryotherapy Treat?
What Does Cryotherapy Treat? Whole body cryotherapy was started in Japan in the 1970s as an alternative treatment for rheumatoid arthritis. It only became readily available in the states within the last decade. In my time spent at CryoZone, I met and spoke with patients from all walks of life. From healing an injury, to post-op recovery, to sufferers of chronic pain and auto-immune afflictions, to migraines, to individuals managing anxiety and depression — it really is a holistic way to treat pain that comes in so many different forms. In speaking with Montross, I learned that a large percentage of clientele are athletes seeking cryotherapy post-workout, to minimize inflammation, recover faster and perform better.
