Whole Body Cryotherapy is a revolutionary treatment that uses extreme cold to promote natural healing, recovery, and wellness in just three minutes. Cryotherapy is available at our NYC location only.
BENEFITS OF Cryotherapy
Decreased Muscle Soreness, Pain, Inflammation, and Fatigue
Cryotherapy effectively reduces inflammation and soreness by constricting blood vessels, which helps alleviate pain and discomfort associated with muscle fatigue and overexertion. This targeted cooling also helps to minimize swelling and inflammation in injured tissues, facilitating faster recovery.
Increased Energy and Peak Athletic Performance
Cryotherapy can provide an energy boost and enhance athletic performance by stimulating the release of endorphins, which promote feelings of well-being and increased energy levels. Athletes often report feeling more alert, focused, and energized after a cryotherapy session, allowing them to perform at their peak during training and competitions.
Boosted Lymph Draining and Blood Circulation
Cryotherapy promotes increased blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, which helps remove toxins and metabolic waste products from the body more efficiently. This enhanced circulation can improve nutrient delivery to tissues, accelerate healing, and support overall health and well-being. Great for race day prep!

What to Expect
During your visit, you will step into our Cryo chamber where cryogenically cooled air will be pumped in, lowering the temperature to -184ºF. The drop in temperature will increase circulation and enrich the blood with oxygen and nutrients. In just three minutes, you will step out feeling invigorated.
Recommended Frequency
Cryotherapy works most effectively when done regularly. It can be as frequent as daily; many people find that the regular routine provides the most consistent results. During the first week, it is recommended to come 3-5 times to receive the most benefit. From there, endurance athletes will see the most consistent results in coming 1-2 times/week throughout a training cycle.
What To Wear During a Cryotherapy Session
Upon arrival, you will be given a robe, dry socks, booties and gloves to change into. You can either choose to enter the machine with or without undergarments or towel. Consider bringing a set of athletic clothes (top and bottom) to change into, as it’s advised to spend 5-10 minutes doing active movement to enhance the overall effect after the session.
Note: cryotherapy is not recommended for those with recent heart conditions, cardiovascular issues and/or diabetes who are not taking medication, or for people who suffer from Renaud’s.
