Cryotherapy or Infrared Sauna??

Hi All, I've heard that sauna & cryotherapy (hot to cold) treatments can benefit autoimmune conditions as well as some skin conditions (psoriasis / eczema). Wondering if anyone has tried either or both of these and if you saw or felt any improvement in symptoms? I've read it can help with itching and slow regrowth. Willing to try as it's low risk - would love to hear from any of you who have tried.

  1. Hi ! I wanted to share this article written by our Editorial Team about the use of cryotherapy for psoriasis: https://plaquepsoriasis.com/clinical/cryotherapy-effectiveness. Many of our community members have used saunas, but I am not sure exactly about infrared saunas, specifically. I do hope some community members chime in with their personal experience! Sending hugs. -Rachel (Team Member)
