I’ve heard a lot about iCryo over the years. It’s a place I’ve been meaning to stop by and finally made it out after I realized my legs felt like death during this training.
The first thing I tried was compression therapy.
I was told what it was but I’m a horrible listener so I had to quickly Google what it was. Compression therapy is a medical and therapeutic technique that uses controlled, gentle pressure to improve circulation, reduce swelling, and prevent blood from pooling in the limbs.
There were these pants that looked like ski bibs. I put them on, and for the next hour, it was like a big massage for my legs and hips. My quads were incredibly sore just walking down the stairs or crouching and this helped immensely.
One thing I wish I had brought was AirPods or a laptop so I could multitask.
After I was finished, I was about to walk out the door but saw this door.
It was the cryotherapy chamber. I know the basic gist of it; I started asking questions.
It’s designed to reduce inflammation, ease pain, and boost your body’s natural healing processes.
Next thing I know….
Three minutes of cryotherapy at -150 degrees. No lie… it was cold. No lie… I wanted to yell profanity.
My shoulders were shivering but I made it through and oddly enough, felt pretty good when I stepped out.
It was something I was worried to try but it was a much better experience than I thought it’d be.
Would I do both services again? 100%. Especially with my half-marathon training which could one day turn into marathon training, I’m open to taking whatever steps to give me a leg up.
Stay tuned for more!
