icelab - Your visit to the icelab
In the icelab you will find a special climate – one found neither on earth nor in space.
You can remain at -110°C from one to three minutes. This is possible because at this temperature the air no longer contains moisture and there are no air currents. You do not perceive the cold to be as extreme as it is. There is more: at -110°C the air volume shrinks by 45% compared with room temperature. This means that you inhale almost twice the amount of oxygen per breath. The two antechambers through which you pass without stopping stabilize the temperature and prevent the formation of heavy fog in the main chamber.
Spending time in the icelabis a unique experience, surprising you with the spontaneous surge of well-being that is created. The positive effects of the icelab climate on health and performance have been the subject of numerous scientific studies and have been fully documented over the past 20 years.
The technology for the procedure was developed in Germany during this period and is perfected in the new hi-tech product icelab.
Pain Therapy
In the icelabthe patient experiences immediate pain relief that lasts several hours. This time span is perfect for conducting movement physical therapy and manual treatments. A series of icelabvisits, for example, 1–2 times daily with a total of 20–30 visits, is beneficial.
It helps to erase the hypersensitive pain memory formed in patients suffering chronic pain, and the central pain sensors are desensitized. Inflammatory processes are inhibited and mobility is improved.
Pain mitigation is appreciable and effective for up to one year, accompanied by a reduction in the use of analgesics and a significant improvement in the quality of life.
This is the basis for the successful utilization of icelab, particularly in:
- Acute traumatic and postoperative situations and rehabilitation
- Inflammatory and degenerative rheumatic diseases
- Chronic headache
- Fibromyalgia
Immune-Modulating Effect of Cryotherapy
There is a reduction in inflammatory and irritative stimuli in hypersensitive immune reactions. icelab may therefore also be used successfully to treat:
- Neurodermatitis
- Bronchial asthma
