It helps with chronic pain
Some forms of cold therapy, such as whole-body cryotherapy (WBC), can help those dealing with chronically painful conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis. WBC requires you to spend a few minutes in a cold, dry room with temperatures below -200 F, wearing little other than gloves, shoes, and face protection. As this may be unbearable or impossible for some, simpler solutions such as cold showers can also temporarily relieve localized pain. This is because cold can affect the speed at which pain travels through nerves.
It improves overall well-being
Cold therapy is considered a trending topic, but people have been raving about its benefits for centuries. In 400 BC, Hippocrates, also known as the father of medicine, prescribed cold bathing as part of his treatment for most serious illnesses. Now, research on cold therapy and its impact on the immune, endocrine, vascular, and nervous systems continues. It can be as easy as jumping into a cold bath. Have you warmed up to the idea yet?
