Cryotherapy

Cold Therapy. Real Benefits.

Cryotherapy uses ultra-cold temperatures for short periods to help support your body’s natural recovery and wellness processes. This invigorating treatment can help reduce inflammation, ease muscle and joint discomfort, boost energy levels, and leave you feeling refreshed and revitalized.

Whether you’re recovering from an active lifestyle, managing everyday aches and pains, or looking for a convenient wellness solution, cryotherapy offers a quick and effective way to support your overall well-being. Available to both members and non-members, sessions can be booked during staffed hours through the One50Fitness app, member portal, or the link below.

How does cryotherapy work?

Cryotherapy works by exposing the body to ultra-low temperatures, triggering several powerful physiological responses:

  1. Circulation Boost: The intense cold causes immediate vasoconstriction (tightening of blood vessels), followed by rapid vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) upon leaving the chamber. This powerful circulatory flush helps clear metabolic waste and deliver nutrient-rich blood for faster recovery.
  2. Natural Pain Relief: The cold acts as a physical “stressor,” prompting the body to release natural compounds like endorphins and noradrenaline. This systemic response can temporarily elevate your mood, increase energy, and significantly reduce the perception of pain.
  3. Inflammation Management: The sustained cold exposure helps constrict blood vessels and suppress inflammatory enzymes, actively supporting the body’s natural processes for reducing localized inflammation and swelling.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Reduces Inflammation: helps lower levels of pro-inflammatory chemicals in the body, reducing overall inflammation and promoting faster recovery.
  • Relieves Pain and Muscle Soreness: Cold exposure acts as a natural pain reliever, easing muscle soreness, joint pain, and stiffness, making it popular among athletes.
  • Enhances Muscle Recovery: By promoting blood flow and reducing inflammation post-session, cryotherapy aids in quicker muscle recovery after workouts or injuries.
  • Boosts Metabolism: The body works harder to warm up after cryotherapy, potentially increasing calorie burn and supporting weight management efforts.
  • Increases Circulation: Alternating between vasoconstriction and vasodilation during and after a session improves blood flow, which aids in delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues.
  • Elevates Mood: Stimulates endorphin release, often leading to an immediate boost in mood and reduction in symptoms of anxiety and depression.
  • Improves Skin Health: Regular cryotherapy sessions can increase collagen production, promoting tighter, healthier skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
  • Reduces Stress and Boosts Energy: Exposure to cold can stimulate the release of adrenaline, giving a natural energy boost and reducing stress.
  • Enhances Immune System Function: Cold exposure may increase white blood cell counts and activate the immune system, potentially making the body more resilient to illness.
  • Supports Weight Management: Although cryotherapy alone isn’t a weight-loss solution, it can complement weight-loss efforts by boosting metabolism and aiding muscle recovery for more effective workouts.
  • Promotes Better Sleep: The endorphin release and stress reduction from cryotherapy can improve sleep quality, especially in people dealing with pain or stress-related insomnia.
  • Relieves Symptoms of Arthritis and Joint Pain: Cryotherapy can temporarily relieve joint pain and stiffness, making it beneficial for those with arthritis or other joint issues.
  • Enhances Athletic Performance: By accelerating recovery, reducing muscle soreness, and boosting energy, cryotherapy helps athletes train more effectively and with less downtime.
  • Decreases Muscle Spasms: Cold exposure can reduce muscle spasms and cramping, which is helpful for athletes and individuals with neuromuscular issues.
  • Anti-Aging Benefits: Through improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and increased collagen production, cryotherapy may contribute to anti-aging benefits for skin and overall vitality.

Cryotherapy is considered safe and non-invasive when administered correctly under the supervision of trained professionals. At One50Fitness, your safety is our top priority, which is why we require a mandatory consultation and pre-screening to ensure it is right for you.

You should be careful about, and discuss with our staff, the following precautions:

  1. Contraindicated Conditions: Cryotherapy is not permitted for individuals with specific health conditions, including pregnancy, severe hypertension (uncontrolled high blood pressure), heart issues, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or cold allergy. We review your health history thoroughly to ensure compatibility.
  2. Safety Protocol: To prevent minor cold-burn or frostbite, it is essential that your skin is completely dry and you wear the protective gear provided (gloves, socks, slippers, etc.) at all times. Our trained staff will guide you through the process and monitor you closely.
  3. Blood Pressure Impact: The sudden exposure to cold can cause a brief, temporary increase in blood pressure. We screen for pre-existing cardiovascular concerns to eliminate any risk associated with this physiological response.

In short, when you follow the guidance of our professionals, cryotherapy is a highly effective, low-risk way to accelerate your recovery.

Individuals with the following medical conditions should consult with a medical provider before trying cryotherapy:

  • Uncontrolled high blood pressure or serious heart/circulation disease.
  • Cold sensitivity / conditions like Raynaud’s. 
  • Open wounds, infections, or poor skin integrity in the area to be exposed. 
  • Pregnancy (many providers don’t recommend it without approval).

Severe respiratory conditions (such as COPD with oxygen dependency)

  • You’ll remove most clothing (except minimal undergarments) and wear protective gear provided to you (dry socks, gloves, maybe a headband) so you don’t risk frostbite. 
  • The cold exposure is very brief, 2-4 minutes only, and you’ll feel intense cold, possible tingling, numbness or “buzz” when you exit.
  • After the session, you might feel a flush or warming, and some people move around/exercise lightly to boost circulation.

There’s no fixed “magic” schedule. Some guidelines:

  • For general wellness or recovery: maybe 2–3 times a week.
  • For heavy athletes or rehab: possibly more frequent (but under supervision). 

You’ll want to monitor how your body responds and adjust accordingly.

The unit puts out about -40 degrees fahrenheit. With windchill the maximum perceived temperature is -80 degrees fahrenheit.

Contrast therapy rapidly boosts recovery and performance by alternating heat and cold. Heat increases circulation and relaxes muscles, while cold reduces inflammation and pain. Switching between the two creates a powerful “pumping” effect in your blood vessels—flushing out toxins, speeding muscle repair, and leaving you feeling refreshed and energized.

Benefits:

  • Faster recovery & less soreness
  • Improved circulation & mobility
  • Reduced inflammation & joint stiffness
  • Enhanced relaxation and stress relief
