FAQ
How does Advanced Local Cryotherapy work for pain management?
Our advanced localized cryotherapy helps by reducing inflammation and rapidly cooling sore areas. The thermal-shock causes the body to trigger itself into recovery/healing mode too by increasing the production of “feel-good” hormones.
Also:
- The body will increase its respiratory rate, thereby increasing oxygen intake
- Blood vessels will subsequently dilate to 4x their resting size, which helps with muscle relaxation (making muscles up to 25% looser)
- Reduces pain levels by slowing synaptic communication between nerves (somewhat acts like an opioid)
If it’s a long-term injury, our cryotherapy treatments can help temporarily relieve the symptoms.
How does Advanced Local Cryotherapy help with Psoriasis or Eczema?
Regular weekly visits can help the symptoms of irritable skin conditions by:
- Thermal shock normalizes the healing process of the skin plaques
- Reduces plaque build-up of skin
- Reduces itching (dulls receptors)
- Slows skin platelet production
- Rapidly reduces inflammation & calms immune system in treatment area
In some cases, results can be visible after just the 1st treatment
How does Cryotherapy help with mood improvement or provide an energy boost?
Cryotherapy can help with mood improvement and/or provide some with an energy boost by:
- Increasing energy production by increasing the production of feel-good hormones (epinephrine, norepinephrine, adrenaline)
- Increase the body’s respiratory rate, which increases your oxygen
Additional, mood improvement can be realized through vagal nerve stimulation.
When we apply very cold temperatures to an individual’s scalp, behind the ears, and down through the neck and shoulders, it stimulates the vagus nerve and cause a relaxation process to occur.

Cryotherapy vs Cool Sculpting® - What is the difference?
Cryotherapy is also known as cold therapy. Cold temperatures are used either in a specific part of the body or the entire body primarily to help reduce pain or inflammation. While pain management is one of the primary purposes of cryotherapy treatments, cryotherapy is used for several other purposes including mood improvement, helping with migraines, and helping to reduce nerve pain.
Cool Sculpting® is a type of fat freezing treatment generically referred to as cryolipolysis. It is not designed to reduce pain or inflammation, but rather, Cool Sculpting is intended to destroy fat cells through the use of very cold temperatures.
