Is it worth it? Cryotherapy

冷冻疗法到底值不值得?

What is it? Stripping down to your pants and spending three minutes in a room chilled to –85C. No, wait, come back – it’s good for you.

这是什么?脱下衣服只剩裤子,然后在零下85度的房间里待三分钟。不,等一下,别走——这对你有好处。

How much does it cost? Two sessions at Cryoclinics in a BMI private hospital in Hendon, north London (one of the only full-body cryotherapy units in the country) costs 50.

这需要花费多少钱呢?在伦敦北部的亨顿BMI一个私人医院的冷冻室(全国唯一一家全身冷冻治疗机构)做两个疗程需要花费50英镑。

冷冻疗法到底值不值得?

What does it promise? There are two ways to approach full-body cryotherapy. If you suffer from inflammation, due to either disease or injury, it can relieve pain and improve joint function. But if you’re an athlete, it’s a tool to accelerate recovery, limit muscle damage and enhance performance. The theory is that bursts of extreme cold allow serious athletes to train harder. Mo Farah apparently uses cryotherapy, as do most top-flight sport clubs.

它有什么作用呢?全身冷冻治疗适用于两种情况。如果你遭受炎症的痛苦,不管是疾病还是受伤,它都可以减轻痛苦,改善关节的功能。但是如果你是一个运动员,这就是加速愈合,减少肌肉损伤,提高表现的好方法。它的理论依据是,突然的极端寒冷让危急的运动员可以更强烈地训练。长跑运动员Mo Farah显然用了冷冻疗法,大多数一流的运动俱乐部同样如此。

What’s it actually like? It’s cold. You strip down to your shorts, put on gloves, socks and a hat, and step into the cryochamber. God, it’s cold. Time slows to a crawl as your extremities start to sting. You look down. Your chest hair has gone white. You’re pretty sure that your eyelids have started to freeze. All you’re aware of, mentally and physically, is the cold. But then it’s done and you step out, and the blood rushes back to your extremities and you’re invigorated. The soreness in your limbs from that morning’s workout has left your body. You feel supercharged. You can’t wait to get back in. Then you do, and immediately regret it. God, it’s cold.

冷冻疗法究竟是什么样的呢?很冷。你脱下衣服只剩短裤,穿上手套,袜子和一顶帽子,然后走进冷冻室。天啊,真冷。当你的骨头开始刺痛,你会觉得时间度秒如年。你向下看,会发现你的胸毛已经变白了。你很确信自己的眼睫毛也被冻住了。精神和肉体上意识到的只有寒冷。但是当结束后走出来,血液重新冲进你的骨端,你感到焕发新生。白天练习带给你的四肢酸痛全部离开。你感觉到了超能量。你忍不住想要再进去。然后你这么做了之后会马上后悔。天啊,太冷了。

Is it worth it? If you’re seriously training for something, it might be worth the investment.

这究竟值不值得呢?如果你很认真的为某事训练着,这或许是值得投资的。
