Whole-body cryotherapy takes place in a cryotherapy chamber (a small room with a glass door) which surrounds the entire body. The purpose of the chamber is to expos your whole body to extreme cold. Liquid nitrogen cools the air to temperatures as low as -140 degrees. During the short treatment, your skin dramatically cools down which activates receptors to the brain telling the body to go into survival mode. The brain then re-routes oxygenated blood to vital organs to keep them warm. There is no danger to body organs whatsoever with the cold air only reaching less than a millimetre beneath the skin. The temperature in a cryotherapy chamber can vary from -90 degrees to -140. The lower the temperature, the shorter the treatment time. Read more about our Cryo Chamber here.
