Surgery is a big deal - physically, emotionally, and mentally. Whether you’ve undergone orthopedic surgery, cosmetic procedures, or soft tissue repair, your body is working overtime to heal. At CryoVida Cryotherapy, we’re here to support that process with science-backed, non-invasive therapies that help you bounce back faster, feel better sooner, and regain your momentum.


One of the most powerful tools in our recovery toolkit? Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) a fast, invigorating treatment that taps into your body’s natural healing systems.


🔬 The Science: How Cryotherapy Supports Post-Surgical Recovery

Cryotherapy works by briefly exposing your body to subzero temperatures (typically -115°F to -124°F) for 2–3 minutes. This cold shock triggers a cascade of physiological responses that are especially beneficial after surgery:


  • Reduces inflammation at the source

    After surgery, inflammation is your body’s natural response - but too much can delay healing and increase pain. Cryotherapy constricts blood vessels and slows the release of inflammatory cytokines, helping to calm swelling and discomfort without medication.


  • Boosts circulation and nutrient delivery

    Once you step out of the cryo chamber, your blood vessels rapidly dilate, flooding your system with oxygen-rich blood. This surge helps deliver vital nutrients, enzymes, and immune cells to the areas that need repair - accelerating tissue regeneration and reducing recovery time.


  • Supports pain relief and mobility

    The cold exposure can temporarily numb nerve endings, offering natural pain relief and making it easier to move, stretch, or begin physical therapy.


⚠️ Important: Always consult your physician before beginning cryotherapy after surgery. Every recovery timeline is different, and your doctor can help determine when it’s safe to begin cold therapy.


🔴 Red Light Therapy: The Perfect Post-Cryo Companion

Once inflammation is reduced and circulation is activated, red light therapy becomes even more effective. This gentle, non-invasive treatment uses low-level wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to stimulate healing at the cellular level.


Here’s how it helps:

  • Accelerates tissue repair by stimulating ATP (cellular energy) production

  • Reduces bruising and scar formation by enhancing microcirculation

  • Promotes collagen synthesis, which supports skin and connective tissue healing

  • Eases stiffness and soreness in muscles and joints


💡 Pro tip: For optimal results, use red light therapy immediately after cryotherapy. Your body is primed to absorb the light’s healing benefits thanks to increased blood flow and reduced inflammation.
