When Whole Body Cryotherapy was first developed in Japan in 1978, it was specifically conceptualized for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, an inflammatory, autoimmune disease of the joints. While incredibly successful for that specific issue, it quickly became apparent that other joints and muscles throughout the body responded to the cryotherapy. Quite simply, people felt less pain and soreness in the injured or affected area.

Whole Body Cryotherapy is great for joint repair, whether it is from the result of an injury, overuse or a form of arthritis. This process will reduce inflammation, promote rapid healing and minimize pain. Cryotherapy is also an excellent choice post-surgery as it accelerates healing to get you back to full mobility as soon as possible.
