Two to three minutes of active exposure in a chamber cooled to minus 110 degrees Celsius. The rapid temperature drop triggers a systemic stress response that increases endorphin and norepinephrine output, constricts peripheral blood vessels, and activates cold shock proteins involved in cellular repair. After exiting, blood flow returns to the extremities carrying oxygen and nutrients. Clients commonly report improved mood, reduced muscle soreness, better joint mobility, and enhanced sleep quality with regular sessions.
About this treatment
Alchemy Cryotherapy Centre's whole-body cryotherapy session places you in a chamber cooled to minus 110 degrees Celsius for two to three minutes of active cold exposure. Unlike localised cryo devices, whole-body chambers deliver uniform cold across the entire body, producing a stronger systemic response.
During the brief exposure window, skin temperature drops rapidly. The nervous system interprets this as a survival signal, redirecting blood to the core and flooding the body with endorphins, norepinephrine, and anti-inflammatory proteins. Cold shock proteins activate pathways associated with cellular maintenance and repair.
On exiting the chamber, peripheral blood vessels dilate and oxygen-rich blood rushes back to the extremities. Many people notice an immediate lift in mood and alertness. Over repeated sessions, research suggests cryotherapy may help reduce exercise-induced muscle damage, ease chronic joint conditions, and support mental wellbeing.
