Alpha Cooling is one of the most innovative forms of cold therapy, developed to generate low temperatures in a targeted manner. The system consists of a box with two openings for the hands, insulated walls and a vacuum pump that can reach temperatures of up to 4 degrees Celsius.
Alpha Cooling has a wide range of applications, including medical therapy, sports medicine, cryotherapy and cold therapy. It is used to improve performance, treat inflammation and pain and promote muscle regeneration.
The use of a pain box can have various effects on the body, including improved blood circulation, the release of endorphins, optimisation of metabolic processes, reduction of inflammation and pain as well as general refreshment and vitalisation.
Alpha Cooling cools the hands down to 4 degrees Celsius.
The use of a pain box offers numerous benefits, such as improved athletic performance, faster recovery after training, reduction of inflammation and pain, support of muscle regeneration, increase in collagen production and increased general well-being.
You don't have to undress, which saves you time, and there's no freezing. Only your hands are in the device, as the most important nerve impulses run through your hands and feet.
The frequency of use of the pain box can vary depending on individual goals and needs. Some people use Alpha Cooling several times a week, while others use it less frequently. We recommend using it 2-3 times in the first and second week, and about twice in the third week. After that, most users generally use the pain box once a week. It is important to follow the recommendations of professionals.
People with certain medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease, Raynaud's syndrome, cold allergies, pregnancy or kidney problems should always seek medical advice before using a cold chamber and, if necessary, refrain from using it.
