Want to Say Buh Bye to Cellulite??
Try Fire & Ice at Chill!
Cellulite. It is a dirty word. Between 80 – 90 percent of women get it, while the percentage of men with cellulite is less than 10%. The exact cause of cellulite is not known, but medical experts believe it is a combination of 7 factors:
- Poor circulation/lymphatic drainage/toxin accumulation
- Inflammation
- Oxidative damage
- Collagen deterioration
- Fat accumulation
- Glycation
- Scar tissue formation
Thankfully, Chill Cryotherapy has a solution to address ALL 7 of these risk factors for cellulite, so YOU can feel great about your gorgeous body!
For cellulite reduction, Chill Cryotherapy offers a two-step process called Fire & Ice. In our 7 years of being in business, we have 100s of clients who have reduced fat & cellulite all over their bodies using this 2-step protocol.
Fire and ice is a combination treatment that starts with heat therapy. At ChillRx, we offer 2 types of heat therapy: a full-spectrum infrared sauna and a full-spectrum infrared slim pod. Both of these treatments use infrared heat to directly increase the temperature of your fat tissue, leading to a huge calorie burn, metabolic boost, and fat tissue destruction! Chill infrared sauna is a 40-minute treatment, while our Slim Pod is a 30-minute treatment. Our slim pod also includes red light therapy, which builds collagen in the skin.
The ice part of our fire & ice treatment is a 3-minute whole-body cryotherapy session. Whole body cryotherapy involves exposing your (naked) body to temperatures between -121 to -220 F. Cryotherapy is colder than Mars!! Cryotherapy has many benefits, including inflammation reduction, pain relief, and weight loss!! A single 3-minute whole-body cryotherapy session can burn up to 800 calories, boost metabolism, and increase mental and physical energy!
How Does Fire & Ice Help Get Rid of YOUR Cellulite?
Let’s tackle each risk factor one at a time….
- Poor circulation/lymphatic drainage/toxin accumulation: Fire & ice improve circulation, lymphatic drainage, and detoxify toxins in the following ways. Our infrared sauna & slim pod improve blood & lymph circulation by dilating blood & lymph vessels. After infrared therapy, cryotherapy works in the opposite way by vasoconstricting blood & lymph vessels. This contrast therapy creates a pumping action within the blood & lymph circulatory systems to not only improve circulation but also to detoxify waste products and toxins. This vasodilation/vasoconstriction sequence improves. Infrared heat is a well-known toxin-detoxifier in its own right, as it penetrates fat cells and releases fat-soluble toxins for detoxification through the blood & lymphatic systems.
- Inflammation: Infrared heat improves circulation, promoting injury healing, relieving inflammation, and protecting against oxidative stress. Whole-body cryotherapy is extremely anti-inflammatory: cold exposure triggers strong biomechanical and biochemical responses in the body, leading to a significant reduction in local and system-wide inflammation! The combination of infrared therapy with cryotherapy can significantly reduce inflammation throughout the body, including wherever cellulite is found—leading to a reduction in the appearance of cellulite!
- Oxidative damage: whole-body cryotherapy specifically triggers a 200–300% increase in norepinephrine in the brain and body. Norepinephrine has been clinically shown to reverse oxidative damage by acting as a free-radical scavenger. Since oxidative damage is a cause of cellulite, whole-body cryotherapy has significant potential to reduce cellulite by stimulating norepinephrine.
- Collagen deterioration: Numerous studies have shown that infrared heat can increase collagen & elastin in the skin, leading to visible improvement in skin texture and thickness! Additionally, cold-temperature exposure, as found in whole-body cryotherapy, reduces the collagen-degrading enzyme collagenase. So while infrared heat stimulates fibroblast activity and collagen production in the skin, cryotherapy can halt collagen degradation, leading to improved cellulite!
- Fat accumulation: infrared sauna and infrared slim pod both burn up to 500 calories and increase metabolism. Whole body cryotherapy can burn up to 800 calories and boost metabolism. The combination of fire & ice can burn tons of calories AND boost metabolism, leading to significant fat & weight loss with consistent usage.
- Glycation is caused by the presence of excess glucose in skin fibers: This excess glucose triggers an internal reaction in which sugar molecules bind to collagen and elastin, leading to their degradation. Both infrared heat and cryotherapy stimulate new collagen production, thus potentially reversing glycation and reducing cellulite!
- Scar tissue formation: Many clinical studies show that inflammation is the trigger. Reducing inflammation can not only reduce the formation of scar tissue but also help degrade existing scar tissue! Since infrared heat therapy and cryotherapy are highly anti-inflammatory, they are also highly effective at reducing the appearance of cellulite by reducing scar tissue!
Wonder why cellulite gets worse with age?? As we age, our estrogen levels drop, which negatively affects blood vessels—leading to poor circulation. As mentioned above, poor circulation and toxin buildup are believed to contribute to cellulite. Older women can counteract this hormonal shift by including fire and ice in their daily or weekly self-care. You don’t have to live with Cellulite! ChillRx Can Help!
