Cryotherapy’s Affect On The Body
If you’re unfamiliar with cryotherapy, let us give you a brief summary of what it is and what it does to your body:
Cryotherapy is where your body is exposed to temperatures far below freezing, solely for a short period of time, though, so you aren’t harmed in any way by the extreme cold.
The effect this has is that of literally shocking your body into action. This causes your body to start up its ‘fight or flight’ mode and encourages everything to work faster, which has many benefits to your health and tends to make you feel revitalized.
A Word On What Dementia Is
Dementia, simply put, is when your brain’s nerve cells or their connections are damaged.
What causes this damage varies from accidentally bashing your head too hard to medical conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, vascular dementia, and frontotemporal dementia.
Each of those things has a negative effect on the cells in your brain, which slows your mind down and causes you to struggle to remember the things you need to.
How Cryotherapy Helps Dementia
Directly, it speeds up your healing. This means dementia caused by injuries is recovered from faster, and even in cases where there is a medical condition behind it, at least your body is able to heal some of the damage as it happens.
Also, the hormones you make when you are stressed and inflammation from damage are two very bad things for your brain cells. Cryotherapy reduces both of these, making for less your brain has to protect itself from while it focuses on repairing or replacing its cells to help your memory and other mental functions get back on track.
How Cryotherapy Offers Overall Support
When it comes to how cryotherapy helps with dementia indirectly, this is because it helps your overall health. What does the one have to do with the other?
Well, when your health is better, you are able to move around and get your blood pumping more, which is great for the health of your brain cells. Also, it means you’re less likely to get ill, meaning your body is able to focus on taking care of your brain.
Finally, cryotherapy tends to improve your mood, and we all know how being frustrated or in a bad mood really doesn’t make focusing or using our brain any easier; in fact, it’s quite the opposite.
