Exposing the body to cold temperatures has proven to be one of the most effective natural strategies for improving quality of life and slowing down the ageing process.

The latest scientific research shows that when properly managed, exposure to low temperatures stimulates metabolism, strengthens the immune system and promotes cellular regeneration.

Dr Vincenzo Primitivo, head of the scientific research department at Starpool, said, “Cold exposure, when integrated into daily life in the right way, becomes a true ally for living a longer and healthier life.”

When we are cold, the body burns more calories to maintain internal heat, helping to control weight and blood sugar while reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular problems.

Cryotherapy can also strengthen the immune system as it triggers an increase in white blood cell production.

Rooted in ancient practices and now a widely practised wellness activity, a range of beneficial cryotherapy experiences can be achieved using Starpool’s technology.

Zerobody Cryo by Starpool offers a gradual approach to cold therapy, where the user remains dry at all times. The client lies down on a dry flotation bed with their body wrapped in a patented membrane. The membrane comes into contact with water at 4-6 °C, providing the user with a daily energy boost.

Alternatively, for those involved in professional sports, Ice Bath allows cold water immersion at 4-8 °C, offering optimal psycho-physical recovery. Ice Bath can also be installed in health clubs or in homes and has seating on two levels for the user to tailor their own experience and level of submersion.

When integrated into a healthy lifestyle, cold exposure becomes a valuable ally for longevity, offering clear benefits for both body and mind.
