Cryotherapy: incredible or incredulous? - Cat Patterson, St George's

Cryotherapy is one of the most recent health and beauty trends to hit the scenes; it literally means “cold therapy” and involves the use of extremely cold air on the skin to stimulate collagen production, tighten pores, reduce inflammation, even destroy cancer cells and much more. It has evolved over the past 70 years, and is a therapy used for a range of things, from facials to cancer treatments. The growth of cryotherapy in recent years has been exponential.
