Cryotherapy

Targeted cryotherapy using directed nitrogen vapour applied to a specific joint, muscle group, or injury site. A 10-minute treatment for localised pain relief, swelling reduction, and accelerated healing of soft tissue injuries.

Targeted nitrogen vapour cryotherapy applied to a specific joint or muscle area for approximately 2-3 minutes, providing localised pain relief, inflammation reduction, and accelerated healing.

A 5-minute whole-body electric cryotherapy session in a MECOTEC chamber reaching -100°C. Nitrogen-free design provides consistent temperature and breathable air throughout the session.

A single whole-body nitrogen cryotherapy session at Kriosonik Warsaw. The cryochamber reaches -120°C to -160°C for a 2-3 minute exposure, preceded by preparation time. Targets systemic inflammation reduction, pain relief, and post-exercise recovery.

A whole-body cryotherapy session in a nitrogen-based cryochamber with a two-tier system: acclimatisation at -60°C in the antechamber, followed by up to 3 minutes at -130°C in the main chamber. Conducted under medical supervision.

Spot cryotherapy at Mráz léčí targets a single body area with a −150 to −170 °C nitrogen air stream for 3 minutes, delivering analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects with pinpoint accuracy. Unlike whole-body cryotherapy, this modality concentrates the cold dose directly on an inflamed joint, strained muscle, or injured tendon, producing rapid local vasoconstriction that reduces oedema and interrupts the pain-signalling cycle without pharmaceutical intervention. The standard protocol applies 180–240 seconds of cold air per area over 2–3 cycles with 300-second rest intervals, and sessions are typically repeated five times per week over one to two weeks for acute injuries. With a 0.05% complication rate when protocols are followed, it is among the safest physical therapy modalities available.

A combined session pairing whole-body nitrogen cryotherapy with radial or focused shockwave therapy in a single 30-minute visit. Designed for musculoskeletal patients who benefit from both systemic cold exposure and targeted acoustic wave treatment.

Local cryotherapy applies a focused stream of cold gas at temperatures down to −160 °C directly onto a painful or injured area — knee, hip, spine, shoulder, elbow or wrist — for 2–3 minutes per session. Unlike whole-body cryotherapy chambers, the targeted approach concentrates the cooling effect precisely where it is needed, triggering rapid vasoconstriction followed by vasodilation, reduced inflammatory mediators, and significant pain relief. At Kryoterapie Olomouc the protocol follows a rehabilitation framework: sessions are performed daily, with 6–10 consecutive visits recommended for lasting results. The studio is supervised by trained staff who guide session intensity to individual tolerance, making it accessible for post-operative recovery, chronic rheumatic conditions, and acute sports injuries alike.

Local cryotherapy at Colliery Recovery applies a directed stream of liquid nitrogen vapour to a specific body area, rapidly cooling the tissue to reduce swelling, calm inflammation, and relieve pain. The studio uses it routinely as part of rehabilitation after sports overload, for joint, muscle and tendon complaints, post-operative swelling, and minor injuries, as well as for skin-focused applications such as supporting acne-prone skin and the appearance of scars and stretch marks. At 150 Kč per application it is one of the most accessible recovery tools on the menu, and is frequently stacked with massage, shockwave or physiotherapy in a single recovery visit.

Cryodestruction uses liquid nitrogen to destroy unwanted skin tissue with extreme cold. The clinic applies it to viral and seborrhoeic warts, actinic keratoses, some superficial skin cancers (basaliomas) and hypertrophic or keloid scars, and also offers a cryostimulation protocol for hair loss. At Derma Blansko the freeze is applied by a dermatovenerologist after assessing the lesion; treated warts then die back and shed naturally, typically over about two weeks to a month.

Local device cryotherapy at Modrý pavilon's physiotherapy department applies intense cold (down to around −160°C) to a targeted area to help reduce pain, inflammation and swelling and to support recovery. It is a quick, single-area treatment used as part of physiotherapy care, priced per application.

Whole-body cryotherapy session in a dedicated cryotherapy chamber, available as a standalone add-on or as part of a residential programme.

Local cryotherapy at FOXYLIFE uses a Cryofén device that delivers liquid nitrogen vapour to a targeted area of the body rather than the whole body at once. The treatment is applied for five to ten minutes to specific joints, muscles, or skin areas where the client experiences pain, inflammation, or sports-related strain. Because the cold is focused rather than systemic, local cryotherapy is a practical complement to whole-body sessions for athletes with a specific injury site, or as a standalone option for localised conditions. The Cryofén is a professional liquid nitrogen applicator that achieves the same cryogenic temperature range as the whole-body sauna but concentrates its effect precisely where needed.

Hydrogen therapy at Kryocentrum Jihlava involves breathing molecular hydrogen gas through a comfortable nasal cannula for 30 minutes while seated at rest. Molecular hydrogen (H₂) is the smallest molecule in existence and readily diffuses into tissues and across the blood-brain barrier. Current research associates hydrogen inhalation with antioxidant activity, reduced oxidative stress markers, and support for post-exercise recovery and fatigue. No injections, no physical exertion — the session is completely passive. Clients leave with no downtime. The therapy pairs naturally with a whole body cryotherapy session and is included free in the 10-session cryotherapy pack.

Whole-body cryotherapy at Mráz léčí exposes the entire body to −120 °C in a professional nitrogen-cooled cryochamber for 3 minutes. A 30-second pre-chamber stage at −60 to −80 °C acclimatises the body before entry into the main cabin, minimising thermal shock and ensuring a controlled exposure. The cold triggers a cascade of physiological responses — vasoconstriction followed by rapid rewarming — that may support reduced muscle soreness, faster post-exercise recovery, lower systemic inflammation, and elevated mood through endorphin release. Mráz léčí has delivered more than 15,000 sessions since 2012 and serves both professional sports teams (FC Zbrojovka Brno, SK Líšeň) and general clients seeking pain management or wellness. Sessions are supervised by trained cryotherapists and followed by 10 minutes of light exercise to maximise circulatory benefit.

A 10-session whole-body cryotherapy package at Kriosonik Warsaw, reducing the per-session cost to 35 PLN. Each session includes 2-3 minutes of nitrogen cryochamber exposure at -120°C to -160°C. Valid for 3 months from purchase.

Whole-body cryotherapy at KryoBody Olomouc takes place inside a nitrogen-cooled cryosauna that reaches between -110°C and -150°C — the only cryosauna in Olomouc. The session itself lasts one to three minutes, during which your body's surface temperature drops rapidly while your head remains above the cabin and you breathe normal room air. The dry nitrogen environment means there is no moisture to worsen the cold sensation; most clients find it sharper but easier to tolerate than an ice bath. Immediately after stepping out, you complete a short round of squats or light movement to drive warm blood back to the skin. The rapid thermal shock triggers a systemic response: blood vessels constrict then dilate, endorphins rise, and inflammatory markers drop. Athletes use cryotherapy to speed muscle recovery between training sessions; regular clients report improved sleep quality, reduced joint pain, and a noticeable lift in mood and energy. Sessions run on Monday and Wednesday evenings by advance booking only.

Whole-body cryotherapy at FOXYLIFE uses an Aurora Cryosauna that drops to between −110°C and −180°C — a premium range that reaches colder than most local alternatives. Sessions last two to three minutes while an operator remains present throughout, and clients breathe normal room air with their head above the cabin. The dry nitrogen environment eliminates the moisture discomfort of an ice bath, making the thermal shock more tolerable and more consistent. FOXYLIFE recommends a minimum course of 10 sessions, ideally 15–20 over consecutive weeks at a frequency of two to three per week, for therapeutic benefits such as reduced joint inflammation, improved recovery times, and elevated mood from the endorphin release. The centre also offers localised cryotherapy using a Cryofén device targeting specific body areas. Group pricing and a combined hyperbaric-cryo package are available.

A 4-minute session in a MECOTEC electric cryochamber cooled to -110°C. The whole-body exposure triggers a systemic cold stress response that may support recovery, reduce inflammation, and promote alertness and wellbeing.

Whole body cryotherapy at Kryocentrum Jihlava uses the CRYONiQ Cryo XC chamber — a Czech-engineered cryotherapy unit that reaches temperatures between -110°C and -140°C. During each 2–3 minute session, intense cold triggers a cascade of physiological responses: blood is redirected to the body's core, flooding organs with oxygen-enriched blood, then released back to the extremities as you exit the chamber. The result is rapid reduction in muscle soreness and inflammation, a surge in endorphins, and heightened alertness that lasts hours. The centre provides all protective equipment — cotton underwear, specialist socks, gloves and slippers — and a trained operator is present throughout. First-time visitors pay only 250 Kč for an introductory session.

CryoBioLifting at Mráz léčí applies a controlled nitrogen cold stream to the face, neck, and décolleté over 10 minutes to stimulate collagen production, reduce puffiness, and tighten skin tone through thermally-driven microcirculation. The sub-zero air stream causes rapid superficial vasoconstriction followed by reactive hyperaemia — an increase in local blood flow — which may support firmer skin texture and a reduction in under-eye oedema. Unlike invasive facial treatments, CryoBioLifting is completely non-surgical, requires no downtime, and can be performed before a special event or as part of a regular skin-care maintenance programme. The session is delivered by Mráz léčí's cryotherapy team in the same clinical environment as their whole-body and sport-recovery treatments.

Whole-body cryotherapy at Cryo Plzeň takes place in a kryosauna — an open-top cryo chamber where dry, technically conditioned air is cooled to roughly −110 °C to −150 °C for a one-to-three-minute exposure. Because the air is moisture-free, only the skin surface cools rapidly while core body temperature is maintained, triggering a strong circulatory and hormonal response associated with reduced perception of pain, lower muscle tension, and a post-session sense of energy. The studio sits inside the Max Fitness gym at Galerie Slovany, making it convenient to schedule a session straight after training. Sessions are done in underwear or swimwear with slippers and a bathrobe provided; all metal items must be removed before entering. Results are often noticeable after a single session, but a regular series is recommended for more lasting effects, which is reflected in the discounted 5- and 10-session packs.

Carlsbad Clinic operates the only whole-body cryotherapy facility in Karlovy Vary: a chamber cooled with treated dry air to around -110 C, arranged across three separate closed rooms. You spend up to 3 minutes in the chamber, then about 15 minutes of guided cryostimulation on bikes or a treadmill to amplify the effect. The intense cold is associated with reduced joint and back pain, eased muscle stiffness and a rise in anti-inflammatory hormones. A short, concentrated course of 10 or more sessions gives the best results.

A 9-minute facial cryotherapy session applying controlled cold to the face and neck area for skin tightening, pore reduction, and a rejuvenating lifting effect.
