Sub Zero Temperatures, Peak Performance – Ronaldo and Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy has a great many fans in the world of celebrities. Few are so vocal in their support of the treatment, however, as Cristiano Ronaldo. The man who many regard as one of the greatest football players to ever grace the field relies on cryotherapy to keep him at the top of his game. But what is it about the treatment that keeps this footballer coming back for more?
Cryotherapy is a full body treatment that exposes a person to temperatures as low as -200°C. This process is said to aid the recovery process and has been suggested to have a number of benefits. From keeping skin looking young and tight to alleviating aches and pains, cryo treatment could potentially help all manner of issues for athletes and couch potatoes alike.
Ronaldo began using cryotherapy as a boost to his regime all the way back in 2013, while he was still playing for Real Madrid. Receiving treatments for as long as five minutes, he would climb into his cryochamber, where he would be exposed to the freezing cold temperatures. The process is thought to improve his circulation, as well as decrease fatigue, giving the athlete more energy to train.
However, Ronaldo isn’t the only major league footballer who uses the treatment. He’s joined by Marcus Rashford and Gareth Bale, who also believe that cryotherapy has a positive treatment on their training regimes. Many A list celebrities, including actors and actresses, similarly use the equipment to stay in the very best of shape possible.
