Key Takeaways of Contrast Therapy
Cold Therapy at 45°F vs. Cryotherapy
Using cold therapy at 45°F (ice baths, cold showers) is often safer and more practical than extreme cryotherapy (-200°F) because:
Controlled Environment – Easily manageable in home settings
Lower Risk of Skin Damage – Minimal chance of frostbite or tissue damage
Greater Accessibility – No expensive cryo chambers or specialized facilities needed
Gradual Acclimatization – Helps the body adjust naturally to cold exposure
Fewer Health Risks – More tolerable for individuals with underlying conditions
