We invite you to the ultra-modern Cryotherapy Center to try this amazing method for regeneration and relaxation of the body, strengthening blood circulation, relieving pain, reducing swelling and treating many diseases and conditions. Cryotherapy, derived from the Greek (krio) “cold” and (therapia) “treatment”, is an alternative therapy that uses very low temperatures from -120°C to -140°C. It begins with a medical examination, during which the doctor determines whether the client does not suffer from a disease unsuitable for cryotherapy. Then follows the actual entry into the cryochamber. The cryochamber is entered in special clothing made of natural cotton, which consists of a headband, a mask to protect the respiratory tract, gloves, a T-shirt for women, shorts, knee socks and clogs.
Activation of happiness hormones – endorphins
The cryochamber has two parts: one adaptive, in which it is -60°C and the client stays in it for approximately 1 minute, and the other therapeutic with temperatures of -120°C to -140°C, in which the stay is 2 to 3 minutes. During the therapy, the average skin temperature drops to about 5°C, while the internal body temperature remains virtually unchanged. Blood circulation is strengthened, as blood is pumped into the cells to maintain body temperature, which results in a pleasant internal warming.
As a result of exposure to extreme cold, hormones are activated and pain inhibitors present in the body, “endorphins – the hormone of happiness”, adrenaline, testosterone and a number of other substances beneficial to the body, are released, which results in immediate, natural pain relief and stimulation of a sense of well-being. During their stay in the cryochamber, pain and inflammation are suppressed, and participants speak positively about the many health benefits they experience in the cryochamber.
This unimaginable cold is not unpleasant, although you feel it on your body throughout the short duration of the procedure, because there is minimal humidity in the chamber, which has a significant impact on the perception of cold by humans.
During the therapy, the chamber doctor is in constant audiovisual contact with clients. The chamber’s operation is controlled by a computer. Visitors can leave the cryochamber at any time through a security door. The cryochamber has alarms and microphones that perform a safety and protective function.
Kinesiotherapy
Then follows the so-called kinesiotherapy – about 20 minutes of exercise on machines. The exercise warms up and increases blood flow to the body, which results in accelerated blood circulation, which oxygenates, mineralizes and revitalizes the cells.
After the procedure is completely completed, the participants begin to feel a state of well-being, tension decreases and everyone begins to be relaxed, calm and physically and mentally fresh.
Reconditioning and healing effects appear approximately after the 7th session, but if you want to achieve a long-lasting effect, it is recommended to spend at least 10-15 sessions in the cryochamber once a day and repeat this therapy at least 2 times a year.
Benefits of Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is extremely invigorating, relieving the symptoms of many common diseases and health conditions, such as stress, insomnia, joint and muscle pain, psoriasis and eczema, fibromyalgia, nervous disorders, depression, and also smoothing the appearance of skin, hair, and cellulite.

- Relaxation of tense muscles around pathologically altered joints – significantly increases their range of motion
- Abundant blood flow through the abdominal organs as a result of blood redistribution due to the difference in temperatures on the body’s surface
- Increased metabolism leads to a more perfect redistribution of minerals and vitamins – a great positive for osteoporosis
- Positive impact on the immune system – strengthening the body’s defenses
- Biochemical regeneration and detoxification of the body
