Is cryotherapy safe? 

Yes, nitrogen is a friendly, non-toxic gas.   Nitrogen composes 78% of the air we breathe.  The other components are 16% Oxygen, 1% Hydrogen and 5% other gases.  Nitrogen is as common as Oxygen.

​

What if I am often cold or get cold easily?

Cryotherapy is a dry cold with no moisture and tolerable even to those who consider themselves cold-intolerant. Cryotherapy improves circulation throughout the body and stimulates production of brown fat, so your future ability to tolerate cold should improve.

​

What do I wear?

Cryo Care provides every client with a robe, socks, slippers, and gloves for the purpose of protecting your extremities during treatment. Men are required to wear their own underwear or shorts (no metal). Women must make sure they have a sports bra with no metal/ wires. All clients must remove jewelry and exterior body piercings below the neck. Additionally, clients should not apply oils, lotions, or cologne prior to treatment.

​

How does Cryotherapy compare to an ice bath?

The benefits of a three-minute WBC treatment are equivalent to that of a twenty to thirty-minute ice bath. Unlike an ice bath, there is no downtime to cryotherapy.

How long is each session?
