Thermal Contrast Therapy, better known as Hot and Cold Therapy, utalizes your bodies natural healing functions. By alternating between hot and cold, your body naturally produces the effects of a blood transfusion. 

The "Vascular Pump" Effect

• The Heat (Vasodilation): When you apply heat, your blood vessels widen. This floods the damaged or sore area with fresh, oxygen-rich, and nutrient-dense blood.

• The Cold (Vasoconstriction): When you switch to cold, those same blood vessels instantly clamp shut. This forces the blood away from the surface and back toward your core.

By alternating back and forth, you create a powerful, flushing action in the tissue. This pump manually flushes out metabolic waste, cellular debris, and lactic acid accumulated from exercise or injury, while bringing in the raw materials needed for cellular repair.

You are essentially getting the swelling-reduction benefits of cryotherapy plus the circulation and tissue-relaxing benefits of thermotherapy, without the negative side effects of doing either one for too long.
