If you are passionate about your sport and exercise, struggling with a niggling injury, suffering from a few aches and pains, want to boost your recovery after a tough training session/competition or if you want to enhance your preparation then CryoSpa North West can help. Our state of the art cold water spa uses a technique called ‘cryotherapy’ which submerges parts of the body in cold water for a period of time (typically 10 minutes per treatment). The exposure to cold water causes blood vessels to improve their blood flow to muscles, increasing the amount of oxygen provided to muscles and the amount of toxins removed from the muscles, for example lactic acid. This helps your muscles to recover much quicker, much more effectively and helping you to feel fresh to train or compete again. A wide body of research notes the benefits of cryotherapy as:
•Shorter recovery time post exercise
•Faster resolution of soft tissue injuries
•Reduce fatigue and assist with injury prevention
•Treat common inflammatory and swelling injuries, muscle/joint soreness and strain
•Promotes neural and cardio vascular system recovery
Whether it’s an important match, a triathlon, a boot camp or you are getting ready to run a marathon or even if you’ve had a tough week at work, the CryoSpa can assist your preparation and recovery.
