Cryotherapy ❄️ — more than just ice after an injury!

cold therapy is a key part of managing acute injuries. It helps reduce swelling, inflammation and pain by slowing blood flow to the affected area — allowing the body to start the healing process safely. 💪

But you don’t need to be injured to benefit from cryotherapy. Regular cold exposure (like ice baths or localized cryotherapy) can aid muscle recovery, decrease soreness, and improve circulation — helping you feel fresher, recover faster, and perform better over time. 🧊

Whether it’s post-game recovery or part of your self-care routine, cold therapy can be a simple yet powerful tool to support your body’s resilience and performance. 🏉✨

Cryotherapy ❄️ — more than just ice after an injury!

In rugby (and most contact sports), cold therapy is a key part of managing acute injuries. It helps reduce swelling, inflammation and pain by slowing blood flow to the affected area — allowing the body to start the healing process safely. 💪

But you don’t need to be injured to benefit from cryotherapy. Regular cold exposure (like ice baths or localized cryotherapy) can aid muscle recovery, decrease soreness, and improve circulation — helping you feel fresher, recover faster, and perform better over time. 🧊

Whether it’s post-match recovery or part of your self-care routine, cold therapy can be a simple yet powerful tool to support your body’s resilience and performance. 🏉✨

Struggling with sleep? Cryotherapy might help.

Cryotherapy can enhance sleep quality by reducing stress, balancing hormones, and easing pain, leading to more restful nights.

Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) uses extreme cold to improve sleep by calming your nervous system, regulating sleep hormones, and reducing pain. Sessions last just 3–5 minutes, with temperatures as low as -85°C.

The Cryo Hub in Berkhamsted offers tailored cryotherapy plans, with afternoon/evening sessions between 14:00–19:00 being ideal for sleep improvement. This is because the post-Cryo ‘high’ as neurotransmitters are boosted naturally fades leading to the ideal conditions for deep sleep.

Pairing treatments with good sleep habits like hydration, avoiding caffeine, avoiding alcohol (sorry!) and maintaining a cool bedroom leads to the best results.

Whole body cryotherapy (WBC) involves briefly exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures (typically around -85°C) for about 3 to 5 minutes.

Here's what happens to your body during those intense 5 minutes:

0–1 Minute: The Shock Phase
➡Your skin cools rapidly (though your core body temp stays stable).
➡Blood vessels constrict to preserve core warmth.
➡The sympathetic nervous system kicks in—heart rate and alertness rise, and adrenaline surges.

1–3 Minutes: The Adaptation Phase
➡Your brain starts releasing feel-good chemicals like endorphins and norepinephrine.
➡Your body boosts calorie burning to try to generate heat.
➡Pro-inflammatory cytokines start decreasing, reducing inflammation temporarily.

3–5 Minutes: The Peak Cold Exposure
➡Cold desensitizes nerve endings, offering temporary pain relief.
➡Some people report feeling mentally sharp or euphoric due to neurotransmitter activity and improved blood oxygenation.

Post-Cryotherapy (After You Step Out)
➡Blood vessels expand, delivering oxygen-rich blood back to muscles and tissues.
➡A rush of warmth and energy often follows.

👉 Metabolism Boost: Resting metabolic rate can increase by up to 350% during a session.

👉 Brown Fat Activation: Cold exposure stimulates brown fat, which burns calories to generate heat.

👉 Afterburn Effect: Calorie burning continues after the session ends.

👉 Weight Loss Results: Studies show reductions in fat mass, waist circumference, and overall body weight with regular sessions.
