4 Ways to use ice for skin care and wellness

Updated: Apr 25, 2023

Do you ever wonder how ice can be used for skincare and wellness? Here are four of the best ways to use it:


1. Reduce inflammation and swelling. Ice constricts dilated blood vessels that cause puffiness, dark rings around the eyes, and fine lines and wrinkles.


2. Relieve joint and nerve pain. Applying ice to your joints helps reduce inflammation by slowing down the chemical reactions that cause pain in the first place, or by reducing swelling caused by tissue damage or injury.


3. Reduce post-workout muscle soreness. Applying cold on sore muscles helps relieve pain by reducing inflammation and swelling as well as increasing blood flow to the area, which helps deliver nutrients to repair damaged tissue faster than normal temperature would allow!


4. Improve sleep quality! When we sleep our body produces growth hormones that help repair damaged cells during the night—but if we don’t get enough sleep those hormones aren’t produced in large enough quantities (which leads to aging faster than our bodies should). So keep cool at night!
