Does Cryotherapy actually work? Sharing details you need to know and a personal experience after 30 days of Cryotherapy sessions.
The type of Cryotherapy that about 90% of us are used to seeing is considered partial body Cryotherapy because your head and neck are outside of the tube that is filled with liquid nitrogen. You’ll get much better results with FULL body, where your head and neck are also inside a room.
Preparation for Cryotherapy
When you’re getting ready for your session you’ll strip down to your undergarments (no wires!!) Then put on the robe, socks, slippers and gloves that the studio provides.
Make sure that you are not wearing anything metal and that you are not sweaty or wet when going into the chamber to avoid the possibility of getting freezer burn on your skin.
Otherwise you don’t need to do any special to get ready for a session.
You are going to be in a -211 degree Fahrenheit chamber for roughly 2:50 to 3 minutes. It’s really not that bad! The key is to stay distracted to make those minutes pass by quickly!
