About US Cryotherapy
US Cryotherapy offers whole-body cryotherapy using a dry, oxygenated air system that does not cause shivering or other uncomfortable reactions associated with cold temperatures. During the treatment, the skin’s temperature is lowered by 30-45 degrees for a period of 2.5 to 3.5 minutes in the cryotherapy chamber. Despite the cold temperature, the process is not painful and can actually leave individuals feeling warm and rejuvenated after the session. The therapy is designed to benefit the body, skin, and mind, providing a range of potential health benefits.
