Whole Body Cryotherapy

A whole-body cryotherapy session in an electric chamber that cools the air to minus 110 degrees Celsius for up to three minutes. The nitrogen-free system ensures consistent temperature throughout the chamber while allowing normal breathing at head level. The rapid cold exposure triggers a systemic vasoconstriction-vasodilation response that promotes endorphin release and supports post-exercise recovery.

RESYNC's whole-body cryotherapy chamber uses electrical refrigeration rather than liquid nitrogen to achieve extreme sub-zero temperatures. This distinction matters for two reasons: the electric system maintains a more uniform temperature distribution throughout the chamber, and it avoids the oxygen displacement risk that nitrogen-based units can pose in enclosed spaces. Clients step into the chamber wearing minimal clothing, gloves, socks, and ear protection, with their head remaining above the cooling zone at ambient temperature. During the two-to-three minute exposure, skin surface temperature drops rapidly, and the nervous system interprets this as an acute cold stress event. The hypothalamus triggers peripheral vasoconstriction, redirecting blood to the core organs. Norepinephrine levels rise — research has documented increases of two to threefold following a single session — which influences alertness, focus, and mood. Endorphins and anti-inflammatory cytokines flood the bloodstream as part of the cold shock response. Upon exiting the chamber, blood vessels in the skin and extremities dilate, sending oxygen-enriched blood back through peripheral tissues. This constriction-dilation cycle is the primary mechanism behind the recovery benefits that regular cryotherapy users report: reduced delayed-onset muscle soreness, improved joint mobility, faster resolution of training-related inflammation, and a sustained elevation in energy and mental clarity. The total session from arrival to departure takes roughly 15 minutes when accounting for a brief health screening on the first visit, changing, the active cold exposure, and a short warm-up period afterwards. Staff are present throughout to monitor comfort and can end the session at any point. RESYNC offers multi-session packages for those building a regular cryotherapy routine. Two to three sessions per week is the typical frequency recommended for cumulative benefits. Many clients pair cryotherapy with red light therapy or massage on the same visit, using the cold for systemic inflammation management and the subsequent modality for targeted tissue recovery.
