Sessions last two to four minutes — the shortest of any major recovery modality. The dry cold air is typically more tolerable than cold-water immersion of equivalent temperature. You'll wear protective gear (gloves, socks, minimal clothing) provided by the studio. Immediately after, most people feel a warm rush as blood returns to the extremities, followed by heightened energy and alertness lasting several hours.

Whole-body cryotherapy (WBC) involves standing inside a cryotherapy chamber for two to four minutes while the surrounding air is cooled to between -200°F and -300°F (-130°C to -185°C) using liquid nitrogen or refrigerated cold air. Unlike a cold plunge, skin never contacts liquid — cold air surrounds the body, triggering an intense but brief cold-shock response while the head and neck remain above the chamber opening.
