Cryotherapy: A New Level of Chill

Cryotherapy: A New Level of Chill

Cryotherapy—also known as “cold therapy”—uses nitrogen cooled air to expose the body to sub-zero temperatures of up to -220°F in order to stimulate multiple physical and mental health benefits. It is proven to boost energy, reduce inflammation, relieve joint pain, speed up muscle recovery, restore collagen, and increase the metabolism within minutes. 

“In order to ensure the positive things you’re seeking you need to allow recovery time. Everything needs time to recover, rebuild and rejuvenate before exposed to stress again.”—Dr. Cedric Bryant, Chief Science Officer for the American Council on Exercise

Cryotherapy has been used to treat chronic conditions such as arthritis and pain, but has also become an effective, mainstream treatment for energy (pre workout), muscle recovery (post workout), and even stress.
