The constriction of vessels and muscles slows the blood flow and forces the immune and hormonal systems to respond.
Immediately the blood vessels dilate to around four times their usual size.
This floods the area with blood,which is rich in
oxygen
hormones
nutrients
activated enzymes
Utilising carbon dioxide at -78 °C
and 50 bar pressure ,the tissues are
cooled to 4 °C in under 30
seconds,causing Thermal Shock.
