Whole Body Cryotherapy

A three-minute whole-body cryotherapy session exposing the body to extreme sub-zero temperatures to promote recovery, reduce inflammation, and support endorphin release. Staff-supervised with protective gear provided.

Recoverie's whole-body cryotherapy session places clients in a chamber cooled to extreme sub-zero temperatures for approximately three minutes. The rapid temperature drop triggers a powerful physiological response: peripheral blood vessels constrict to protect the core, the nervous system releases endorphins and norepinephrine, and anti-inflammatory cascades activate across the body. Upon exiting the chamber, blood vessels dilate and oxygen-enriched blood floods back through the limbs and joints. The session is brief by design — three minutes is sufficient to trigger the cold-shock response without the risks associated with prolonged cold exposure. Staff provide protective gloves, socks, and ear coverings before entry and remain present throughout to guide breathing and monitor comfort. The total visit time including preparation and recovery is typically under 15 minutes. Cryotherapy at Recoverie is popular with athletes managing training loads, runners and cyclists recovering between sessions, and Brooklyn residents who incorporate cold exposure into their daily wellness routine. The treatment is also used by people managing chronic inflammation, joint stiffness, and delayed-onset muscle soreness. Many clients at Recoverie pair cryotherapy with an infrared sauna session immediately afterwards for a contrast therapy protocol — cycling between extreme cold and deep warmth to amplify circulatory and recovery benefits. The studio's uniform pricing makes it straightforward to combine multiple modalities without cost complexity. First-time visitors can try any single core therapy at an introductory rate before committing to regular sessions.
