What is WBC?
Whole Body Cryotherapy is a process of cooling a persons skin down to as close to 32 degrees Fahrenheit as possible in a 2-3 minute period. This is done by surrounding the body with air at temperatures varying anywhere from negative -90C to -120C (-184F).
During this fast cooling process, the body enters temporarily into “survival mode” triggering the body’s natural healing mechanisms as though it were freezing. Blood will then be sent to the body’s core in order to become warmed and become highly oxygenated. This will trigger a protective response that releases adrenaline, endorphins and other hormones into your body. This results in many beneficial effects including pain relief, increased blood circulation, increased collagen production, reduction of inflammation & swelling, increased weight loss & caloric burn and several other positive effects.
