Experiences with

Cryotherapy

I’m wondering if wearing ice mitts or socks really does prevent neuropathy during docetaxel treatment? Our oncologist tells us that there’s no real evidence that the use of either of these can prevent CIPN from developing.

I meet with my urologist on Oct 29 to go over the recent biopsy and I hope we discuss cryotherapy but he may want to schedule that for another visit. My guess is it’ll be December of January if I decide to do cryotherapy with him. Same for Zelefsky or even longer.

Here’s why: When I made the appointment weeks ago, I did not know if I would qualify for cryotherapy at Duke. Now I know I do. I think it's likely Dr Zelefsky will recommend ADT for a short period before and after the procedure.

The salvage treatments I’m considering are SBRT, Brachytherapy and Cryotherapy.

Any reports or advice on cryotherapy for PD symptoms?

Infrared sauna followed by cryotherapy chamber which is really helping my bones/joints inflammation i am sick of tablets the four for thyroid and BP are enough I have accepted there is not a pill to help and am currently trying any and everything to keep myself moving and living it makes me miserable

It was -10C and I think I unwittingly did cryotherapy on my poor thighs which only had one layer of leggings. I've run in five countries apart from the UK, hoping to make that 6 this week. On reflection though, the most important run I ever did was Week 1, Run 1 of C25K.

I am thinking about having salvage cryotherapy which may or may not kill all of the cancer using partial or whole gland cryotherapy…Thanks!

Options mentioned to me by my oncologist and urologist was possibly cryotherapy or Hifu. But urologist says most are miserable after those treatments and he hasn't heard of those two mentioned in quite awhile. Lastly, pharmacist at Xtandi said I could stop Xtandi and restart in 4 months.

Please Help Me Out, What Can I Do? After resolving incontinence after RP w/ PLNR (8) on 03/14/2033 Had Davinci Radical Prostatectomy with Lymph Node Removal on 03/14/2023 Only 8 Lymph Nodes Removed, according to operating urologist surgeon that is what he saw to remove I brought onto my team

He also tried cryotherapy and red light therapy. Alongside the wellness center activities, he took a variety of supplements to include Omega 3, NAC, D3, K2, Glutathione and Magnesium Glycinate. I prepared Pine Needle tea and fruit or vegetable smoothies for him daily.

I take Curcumin, BioAcidophillus, am having an anti inflammatory diet and am even trying cryotherapy, though I have only had one session as the machine is now broken! It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.

I'm trying to find an experienced physician in SBRT or Focal Cryotherapy. Thank you in advance!

Gary Onik metastatic stage 4 prostate cancer with immuno and cryotherapy? Would greatly appreciate any success stories on getting into remission or being cured by his treatments. Also, if you had a bad experience or got worse from his treatment please let me know. Thank you very much.

Would like to have either salvage partial gland cryotherapy or HIFU…This is a recurrence. Thanks

Has anyone had good results with Immunotherapy with Cryotherapy? Thank you

Has anyone tried cryotherapy for PMR? I’d be interested to know as it’s supposed to be reduce inflammation (as well as other benefits) . I am embedded in the football world and the physio of a club suggested it to me saying he thought it might help. Any thoughts?

At the age of 70 my most recent treatment was a Robotic Prostatectomy after which pathology report was Gl 3+4 prostate cancer, pT3a (EPE and bladder neck invasion), N1 (1/15 nodes positive), multiple positive margins.( Prior to that I underwent Cryotherapy for prostate cancer in Mar 2012.)

My local spa offers cryotherapy for arthritis. Has anyone tried this for RA and had any effect? I tried having a full body massage to help ease my aches but ended up hurting all over! A cold shower helps but I can’t spend all day in there. Does anyone have some good tips please ?
