During your session, blood circulates through your natural filtration system (kidneys, liver and heart) and removes toxins and inflammatory properties from the body. After your session, your blood vessels dilate through a process called vasodilation in which blood vessels are dilated up to four times their normal state. Filtered blood, supercharged with oxygen, nutrients, and enzymes, flows through your body and to your peripheral tissue.

Cryotherapy has also been used as a tool for increasing metabolism. Cryotherapy exposes your body to extremely cold temperatures for a short period of time which can raise the body's metabolic rate as it works to heat back up again using a considerable amount of energy. Studies have shown that this can cause the body to ‘burn’ up to 800 calories following consistent, weekly cryotherapy treatment. That’s the equivalent of running for around 45 minutes or swimming for an hour!

In a whole body cryotherapy session you'll spend 2-3 minutes in the chamber with a total of 10 minutes allotted for prep/recovery. A cryotherapy facial and/or local spot treatment will take around 10-15 minutes in total.

During a full body cryotherapy session, we suggest wearing undergarments. 

Sensitive body parts will be covered with a facemask, ear muffs, gloves, and socks provided by Lume.

All jewelry or anything metal should be removed.

You should feel refreshed and energized after your Cryotherapy session. Some people say they feel benefits immediately after a cryochamber session, research has shown that you will experience improved and cumulative benefits after a minimum of 10 sessions, within a two or three week period.

For general use 2-3 sessions per week is the norm.

The greatest risk to cryotherapy is Asphyxiation. Our chambers are equipped with an oxygen monitor and your head will be out of the chamber for the entire session allowing you to breath room-air.

A trained operator is always present during the treatment to control the temperature levels and monitor your comfort.

Sensitive body parts should be covered with a facemask, ear muffs, gloves, and socks or slippers. Burning of the skin or frostbite can occur when proper attire protocol is not followed.
