It is cold but not painful! Temperatures are very tolerable and the session only lasts 3 minutes!

Men can wear shorts, underwear or swim trunks. Women can wear a swimsuit or shorts and sports bra. A beanie and/or ear warmer-style headband is a helpful addition as well. Thick socks are required.

Recently, advances in technology have allowed for safer and more efficient ways to provide cryotherapy, namely, using electricity to produce cold, refrigerated air, similar to a large freezer.

2 of the main advantages Electric Cryobuilt Systems have over Nitrogen Systems are:

• The most obvious difference between the two, is electric cryotherapy uses freshly oxygenated cool air to fill the chamber with no risk of exposure to harmful gas. Nitrogen cryotherapy uses liquid nitrogen to cool the chamber, which has a forced air-cooling effect from the feet up, with the clients head outside of the tank, and ventilation is required.

• With electric cryotherapy, you are able to expose your ENTIRE body to the ultra-low temperatures which results in true whole body cooling. Again, this is because you are in a refrigerated cooled air chamber which is completely safe to breathe.  With nitrogen cryotherapy, you have to keep your head and chest above the treatment area, because the chamber is full of nitrogen and it can be very dangerous when inhaled. This type of partial body is certainly still beneficial but partial cooling targets lower body extremities and yields less bodily reactions.

We welcome kids ages 12 & up with parental consent. Although, we offer localized cryotherapy for all ages.
