INJURY AND MUSCLE RECOVERY FOR ATHLETES
On the day after Slaughterfest here in Salem, Oregon I feel it is appropriate to talk about how Whole Body Cryotherapy can help athletes recover. The Crossfit athletes who competed yesterday are waking up to massive lactic acid and soreness. Their legs and arms are stiff and inflamed, no doubt from the massive reps they produced over a short period of time, pushing their bodies to the limit. Cryotherapy can help with pain management.
Cryotherapy subjects the body to extreme cold and sends a rush of blood to your vital organs and core. As soon as you leave the cold, this new enriched blood is sent back to the rest of your body, including the injured areas. The 2-3 minute session will increase your mobility, reduce stiffness and help manage your pain as you recover.
The endorphin rush you feel coming out of the chamber is your blood returning from your core, stripping inflammation and lactic acid and reducing the chance for future injury and helping you recover faster to get back to your next workout. Whole Body Cryotherapy, unlike an ice bath can get you back to competition the same day versus the 24 hour recovery time of an ice bath.
Remember to fuel your body! We have some great partners in town that can help with those supplements as you prep for your next competition. Kamikaze has taken the valley by storm and now has a new shop in Keizer! Check them out 😉
