WHAT IS LIQUID NITROGEN CRYOTHERAPY
After the development of the vacuum flask to store subzero liquid elements, such as nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen the use of cryotherapy dramatically increased. By the 1940s, liquid nitrogen became more readily available, and the most common method of application was by means of a cotton applicator. In 1961, Cooper and Lee introduced a closed-system apparatus to spray liquid nitrogen. In the late 1960s, metal probes became available. By 1995 Whole Body Cryotherapy became a standard procedure in Departments of the plasma, the central nervous system fluids, the lymph, and the bone. This enables oxygen to be carried to areas where circulation is diminished or blocked.
HBOT allows extra oxygen to reach all of the damaged tissues and enables the body to support its own healing process. The increased oxygen greatly enhances the ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria, reduces swelling, and allows new blood vessels to grow. HBOT is an effective, non-invasive, and painless treatment.
