Whole-Body Cryotherapy

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.

FOXYLIFE's whole-body cryotherapy protocol begins with a thorough pre-session consultation where the operator screens for contraindications — a list that includes unstable hypertension, recent cardiac events, pacemakers, severe anaemia, cold allergy, active skin infections, and any oncological diagnoses. Once cleared, clients undress to a tank top and shorts, put on ankle socks (or knee-high socks preferred), wool gloves, and hygienic single-use socks provided by the centre, then step into the Aurora Cryosauna. The Aurora is an orange cryosauna model that uses vaporised liquid nitrogen to fill the chamber. Temperatures drop rapidly to between −110°C and −180°C — the colder end of this range places FOXYLIFE among the more capable Czech cryotherapy providers. The head remains above the open-top cabin at all times, so clients breathe ordinary room air rather than cooled nitrogen vapour. An operator monitors the session throughout and can adjust or terminate it at any point. Sessions run for two to three minutes based on the client's tolerance. The physiological response follows a well-documented pattern. Peripheral vasoconstriction occurs within seconds as the nervous system redirects blood from skin and extremities to protect core temperature. The body responds by releasing norepinephrine and endorphins — the latter producing the mood lift that many regular clients report as their primary motivation for weekly maintenance sessions. Upon exiting, light movement (squats, jogging in place) accelerates the vasodilatory rebound, flooding muscles with oxygenated blood and clearing lactic acid and inflammatory metabolites faster than passive rest. FOXYLIFE positions cryotherapy for a broad range of use cases: athletes using it post-competition or between heavy training blocks, individuals managing fibromyalgia or rheumatic joint pain, post-operative recovery (with medical sign-off), cosmetic applications including cellulite reduction, immune system support, and general vitality maintenance. The centre recommends a minimum of 10 sessions to observe therapeutic effects, with 15–20 consecutive sessions at two to three per week as the optimal initial course. Preparation is straightforward: arrive in dry clothing with no moisture on the skin, avoid alcohol and topical warming products on the day of the session, and skip sauna or solarium beforehand. Remove all jewellery, glasses, and metal items before entering. Own wool gloves can be brought if preferred. Clients with hands inside the chamber (rather than resting on top) must wear wool gloves. Post-session, the operator guides a two-to-three minute movement protocol before clients redress. Group bookings for two or three people are available at reduced per-person rates, and a combined hyperbaric-plus-cryo package offers added value for those using both modalities in one visit.
