At Whites of Wexford luxury hotel we aim
to be both innovate and attentive to our guests needs. Looking for a spa
break in Ireland with a difference - we are the first
hotel in Ireland or the UK to offer a Cryotherapy Clinic. Cryotherapy
reduces recovery time from muscle strain and injuries and also gives
pain relief in illnesses such as Arthritis.
Whole Body Cryotherapy
initially originated in Japan in 1978 but it was a group of polish
scientists who took the idea and made Whole Body Cryotherapy the
effective physical therapy it is today. The Olympic rehabilitation
centre in Spala, Poland opened in May 2000 and has been used as a training and
injury rehabilitation centre for many sporting bodies
including the Irish rugby squad and many premiership soccer clubs. Whites of Wexford
offers both team and individual
training and rehabilitation
facilities.
“..The benefits
of Cryotherapy are instant. They begin with the feeling of
being glad to be alive and soon become more scientifically
sports-related. Once I stopped shivering I could feel a rush of blood
through my arms and legs. A rush of energy came with it. It could have
been just me but I also felt an intoxicated sense of well-being” Ian
O’Riordan, Irish Times Sport
“The freeze and fix it system is just about the hottest development in
sports medicine since the “magic bottle” that might have contained just
about anything from illegal brew to foul-smelling salts.” Article
