Summary
Common features in chronic inflammatory disease patients (CIDP) are inflammation, mental stress (MS), and autonomic nervous system imbalance. Whole-body cryotherapy (WBC) and regular physical exercise are known to regulate these features. In this study, we assessed the impact of regular physical exercise and WBC in CIDP on the level of skin resistance (SR) in order to estimate the sympathetic nervous activity and MS levels. SR was evaluated before and after a 10 day-period of daily physical exercise preceded or not by WBC in two groups of 134 CIDP. At baseline, the number of severe stress patients was similar in both groups. After the training period, the number of severe stressed patients significantly decreased in the WBC group only. An increase in SR was also noted only in the WBC group and was higher in men than in women and in patients younger than 60 vs patients older than 60 years old. In conclusion, the use of daily WBC combined with physical exercise induced physiological adaptations, lowered the sympathetic nervous activity and reduced the number of severe stressed patients.
