Summary
Positives
- A long-hauler with neurological symptoms (tremors, ear ringing, severe fatigue) for 1 year tried cryotherapy (3-minute cold air chamber) and felt dramatically better after just 2 sessions, rating the mood improvement 10 out of 10 Reddit.
Negatives
- A long-hauler with PEM, brain fog, and MCAS reported that cryotherapy helped a little in the short run but not in the long run, and that saunas were more helpful by comparison Reddit.
Hurdles & Side Effects
- The same poster emphasized that cryotherapy is NOT recommended for POTS patients or anyone with heart conditions, which excludes a significant portion of the LC population Reddit.
- Benefits required ongoing sessions, with symptoms returning within 6–8 weeks of stopping, making it a maintenance therapy rather than a cure Reddit.
