What is Cryotherapy?

Is it possible to freeze your way to better health? Here at Health 1st of the Triad, we do just that by offering cryotherapy treatment to our patients. Using two to three intense minutes of exposure to freezing nitrogen gas, this therapy is great if you are suffering from a muscle spasm or just recently developed a soft tissue injury, cryotherapy is an excellent way to help reduce swelling and further injury in the early stages of your healing process.


During the process, the skin sends signals to the brain, which stimulates physical reactions and activates naturally occurring healing resources. Extreme cold stimulates skin sensors, activating a Central Nervous System (CNS) response. This causes the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain inhibitors and mood elevators while the enhanced circulation activity decreases inflammation by clearing toxins and metabolic waste with a supply of oxygen and nutrient enriched blood to stimulate faster healing.


If you are interested in receiving cryotherapy treatment, give us a call.

New Site - New Year!

Welcome to the new website!!!




We've changed hosting providers and in so doing - ALL OUR CONTENT was lost to the other web host!

SO -
We've gone back to our ORIGINAL blog back in 2014 and will be added all our content BACK on this blogspot.

Since Google is the owner of blogspot (or at least I think it is!)  We should always have access to this blog for updates and information.

That means - this will be the latest information about our offices (starting in JANUARY of 2016!)

It will also be tied with our Facebook and Twitter pages - so make sure you're following us on social media (pintrest and G+ too!!!)
