In this blog post, we’ll explore the benefits and risks of cryotherapy and what to expect during a session at Nao Medical in NYC.
What is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a treatment that involves exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures for a short period of time. This can be done using a cryotherapy chamber or a localized cryotherapy machine.
