You can actually Improve Energy with Cryotherapy

By October 7, 2018December 20th, 2018No Comments

1. Environmental Fluctuations

The body’s response to the extreme cold felt during a whole body Cryotherapy session is to constrict muscles and increase blood flow and what follows is a chain reaction of effects that ensure you Improve Sleep with Cryotherapy.

2. Norepinephrine

Norepinephrine gives you a similar sensation to a cup of coffee, it’s synonyms with alertness, goal seeking behavior, and energy levels.

Your Body secrets 3-5 times the normal amount of Norepinephrine while in the Cryochamber..

Low amounts are also associated with depression, Norepinephrine is a natural “Feel Good” Hormone

3. Brown Fat

10-20 Sessions can increase the amount of mitochondria in your body as much as 38%.

This Mitochondria Dense fat is known as “Brown Fat” and gets it’s name because Mitochondria are dense in iron, giving them a brown color.

Mitochondria is known as the Powerhouse of the Cell, and it’s aptly named. The Mitochondria dense Brown Fat is easily turned into energy in emergency situations, or temperature shifts, and may increase resting caloric burn.

This increase in Mitochondria is a natural adaption from your body to the extreme temperatures – people in colder parts of the world (especially those who work outside) have larger amounts of Brown Fat.

 

How can you Improve Sleep With Cryotherapy?

 

A Single Session is all it takes to improve your sleep with Cryotherapy. After  20 Cryotherapy Sessions your sleep will be greatly improved for the next 3 months Post-Cryotherapy, So even if you have to stop using Cryotherapy for a while (an active lifestyle is great!), you will still be able to reap these benefits of Cryotherapy. That is, for at least 3 months before you need to start doing your sessions again. Still not bad for a treatment that lasts only three minutes. Think of all of the things you could do with ninety days of good sleep. If your doing everything right;

  • Not drinking coffee after 5pm
  • Turning off all devices with screens while trying to sleep
  • Not eating after six pm
  • Giving yourself enough time

And you’re still not sleeping, you could benefit greatly from cryotherapy. Hey, it can be hard to relax and get the much needed zzz’s you deserve when you have important meetings or life events coming up,  have many stresses in your life, or if you hear your kids wonderful voices screaming in your head at night. Here’s how it works.

Your body responds to the extreme cold felt during a whole body cryotherapy session in many different ways. It constricts muscles and increases blood flow to start with. What happens next is a large chain reaction of differing effects throughout the body.

One of those effects is the release of feel good endorphins in the brain and an increase in production of norepinephrine as well. The endorphins, once in your bloodstream, will act as an analgesic which will decrease any sensations of pain you might have been experiencing while simultaneously acting as a mild sedative. Norepinephrine is a hormone and neurotransmitter that affects your sleep-wake cycle and has dramatic effects on energy, focus, mood, and sleep patterns. That means that these changes in your body caused by cryotherapy will directly affect how well you sleep!

Other effects include a boost to your immune system and a reduction of pain and inflammation. When your immunity is heightened, it is easier to combat and resist catching colds, disease and other illnesses that might keep you up at night as a side effect from the sickness itself or from the pain/problems you have to manage from the illness. Similarly, less pain and inflammation will prevent trouble you have when falling asleep and also it helps against frequently waking up/ tossing and turning throughout the night. These changes in your body indirectly affect how well you sleep!

Whether your pain is preventing you from getting enough sleep at night or if you suffer from a stressful schedule, you may very well be able to Better your Sleep with Cryotherapy

Additionally your body is able to produce more energy during the day through a more efficient and higher functioning metabolism as well as from the increasing amount of Mitochondria Dense “Brown Fat” your body stores.
