Did you know that around 80 % of diseases are linked to vascular problems?
Our ancestors were constantly exposed to warm and cold stimuli, which trained their muscles and blood vessels, strengthening the body. However, in modern life, we lack these natural stimuli—making us more susceptible to illnesses. This is where cryotherapy comes into play. Targeted cold exposure trains the blood vessels, improves microcirculation, strengthens the immune system, and promotes the body's regeneration. It has been particularly effective in relieving muscle and joint pain, combating chronic fatigue, and aiding athletes in recovery. Positive results have also been observed in treating skin conditions and atopic dermatitis.
The healing power of cold has been known for centuries and has a long-standing tradition. Hippocrates already used cold therapy to relieve pain, stop bleeding, and reduce swelling from injuries. Similarly, Sebastian Kneipp recognized the benefits of cold and developed his famous hydrotherapy method, known as "Kneipping." To this day, cold therapy remains an integral part of many spa and rehabilitation programs.
Just a few minutes at –140°C are enough to trigger health-boosting processes in the body. The body enters an intense protective state, mobilizing new energy and activating biochemical processes. Our qualified therapists at Spa Ninfea will guide you every step of the way, ensuring that you, too, can appreciate this extraordinary experience.
