What to Expect
Application of Alternating Hot & Cold Temperatures:
-
After a specialized gel is applied to the skin, the treatment wand is massaged over the areas to be treated.
-
The machine alternates between 2 minutes of warm and cold temperatures throughout the treatment.
-
The cold treatment will help reduce inflammation, numb pain receptors, and promote vasoconstriction.
-
The warm treatment will improved circulation and assist in muscle relaxation.
-
Overall, the alternating between warm and cold will help to reduce chronic pain and further promote circulation to speed healing.
