Cryotherapy
Why it works
Whole body cryotherapy has been used in Europe and Japan for over 30 years, and has revolutionized the healing power of cold. For 2-3 minutes, the body is exposed to ultra low temperatures, and the body reacts in turn by quickly sending blood to its core where the blood is pumped with nutrients, endorphins, and anti-inflammatory molecules. When the session ends, new, nutrient dense blood is circulated through the body creating a rush of endorphins, and an overall feeling of well being.

How it assists with weight loss:
Whole Body Cryotherapy is a safe, non-stimulant method that significantly raises the body’s metabolism. The swift decrease in body temperatures leads to a boost in metabolism that acts to reheat the body, bringing it back to normal temperatures.
