Hello

I just heard about this new treatment for RA called cryotherapy. At first I thought it was the thing where you freeze your body instead of dying and get thawed out in the future, but that is something completely different! Cryotherapy is where they apply extreme cold to your body for 3-5 minutes. It is supposed to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. I'm thinking about trying it out, has anyone else?

I don’t know about that therapy you were asking about but I’d like to suggest something else I went to a vegan health clinic for one month in Northern California. It’s called True North I fasted for 17 days on juice and then I did their plan to eat their healthy organic food. In addition to some other things I should just I’m 79 years old and I’ve had bad pain and inflammation and trouble with RA for 30 years I feel the best I’ve ever felt in my life so I would be curious to know about people using a vegan diet if it helps them. Thanks Terry Barber.

Hi @jack48

How are you doing today?

This is an interesting topic-I did a quick google. Here is a link for reference for others who may want to learn a bit more about Cryotherapy:

@Angel8167 @MelStill78 @Susieje @belanjatani @Rusty_zMom09! @Smittyjeanne @sonny16 @Deannaw @Neshia @EmpressWisdom @Danalynn @Daisy79 @simplyavonforyou @NVclaudiaMack @Msmothers72 @CallaLili @Nance64 @handsumque @ShirtMac @MaryleePA @Jackieelkins79 @Rockinrobynne @Doingmybest @Adouet @Lmg21532 @Maggie1234 @Blake0808 @Robyn13 @MaxFlex

Have you heard of this therapy before? Have you tried it? What were the results? If you haven't tried it, do you think it would be something you would look into?\

Take care,

Lizzi from the Carenity team
