Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy exposes the body to extremely cold temperatures for a short period. It is used for various health and wellness purposes and typically involves standing in a cryotherapy chamber or cabin, where the ambient temperature drops significantly, often to as low as -124 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cryotherapy has been proven effective in supporting several conditions, including: 

• Reducing muscle soreness
• Reducing muscle, joint and skin inflammation
• Alleviating pain
• Improving circulation
• Increasing energy

Cryotherapy is used for various purposes, primarily for its therapeutic and wellness benefits. Some common uses of include:

• Muscle Recovery
• Pain Management
• Skin Conditions
• Circulatory Conditions
• Energy and Well-Being
• Weight Management
• Injury and Inflammation Reduction
• Stress and Anxiety Management

It’s important to note that while cryotherapy can have benefits for some individuals, it is not a substitute for medical treatment when necessary. Not everyone should undergo cryotherapy. Individuals with certain medical conditions, such as cardiovascular issues, cold intolerance, or circulatory problems, should avoid or consult with a healthcare provider before booking a session. Pregnant individuals should not engage in cryotherapy. Please review our consent form to ensure that it is right for you.  

The frequency of sessions can vary depending on individual goals and personal preferences. It’s essential to consider factors such as your desired effect, the potential benefits, and any guidance from healthcare professionals. Listen to your body and consult with your medical provider when deciding on the frequency of sessions. Pay attention to how your body responds and consider integrating it as part of a comprehensive wellness plan that includes other health and lifestyle factors.

Remember that the effectiveness of cryotherapy can vary among individuals. Always prioritize safety and informed decision-making when using it as part of your wellness routine.

While cryotherapy may be uncomfortable, it should not be painful. If you experience  pain or other adverse reactions during a session, you should immediately exit the chamber and seek assistance. Additionally, individuals with certain medical conditions, such as cold intolerance or circulatory problems, should exercise caution and consult with a healthcare provider before attempting a session.

After a session, there are several common effects and sensations that individuals may experience. These can vary depending on the type of cryotherapy (whole-body or localized), the individual’s tolerance, and the specific goals of the session. Here’s what you can typically expect:

1. Immediate Reactions: Right after a session, you may feel a rush of adrenaline and a sense of alertness. Some people experience a “high” or improved mood immediately following the treatment.
2. Redness and Skin Reaction: Skin in the exposed areas may appear reddened immediately after the session. This is due to increased blood flow to the surface of the skin in response to the cold.
3. Cold Sensation: Your skin may continue to feel cold for a brief period after the session, but it should gradually return to its normal temperature as blood flow normalizes.
4. Pain Relief: For those using it for muscle recovery or pain relief, you may notice reduced muscle soreness and increased mobility in the hours and days following the session.
5. Improved Sleep: Some individuals report better sleep quality after sessions, as the release of endorphins and relaxation can promote restful sleep.
6. Energized Feeling: You might feel an increase in energy and vitality after a  session.
7. Increased Circulation: Cryotherapy can promote improved circulation, which may benefit individuals with circulatory issues.
8. Long-Term Benefits: For conditions like muscle recovery, pain management, or skin conditions, the full benefits of cryotherapy may become more evident after a series of sessions, rather than immediately.

It’s important to stay hydrated after a session and avoid activities that could lead to overexertion or overheating. The specific effects and how long they last can vary among individuals, and some people may not experience the same reactions. If you have any concerns or unusual symptoms after cryotherapy, consult with your medical provider.

When you arrive, you will be given a wrap to wear during your treatment. Coverings for your hands, feet (crocs) and head are also provided. You can wear your own clothing, such as what you would wear to work out on a warm day

We recommend that you remove all piercings and jewelry (including permanent jewelry) before your cryotherapy session. If you can’t remove the piercings or permanent jewelry, you will need to double-layer the area around the piercing. If you double-layer and experience any discomfort in the chamber, you will need to exit the chamber immediately.
