Cryotherapy
What is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a cold therapy treatment that briefly exposes your body to extremely low temperatures to trigger powerful recovery and anti‑inflammatory responses. In a 2–3 minute session, your skin temperature rapidly drops, helping reduce muscle soreness, calm irritated joints, and support a noticeable full‑body “reset.”
At Recover Pro, cryotherapy is used as part of an integrated recovery plan—not a one‑off treatment—so you get a safe, medically aware experience that complements your training, rehab, or long days on the job. Many clients notice less stiffness, better sleep, and improved energy over time when cryotherapy is consistently paired with smart training and rehab.
Recover Pro combines evidence‑informed recovery tools with real medical, rehab, and sports performance expertise under one roof, so cryotherapy is never done in isolation. The team understands pain, injury, and high‑level performance, and will help you use cryotherapy at the right intensity and timing to support your goals.
How Cryotherapy Works
You’ll step into the CryoBuilt Everest Peak whole‑body electric cryotherapy chamber, which uses ultra‑cold, nitrogen‑free air to drop your skin temperature by roughly 30–40°F in just 2–3 minutes. The intense cold helps reduce inflammation, ease muscle and joint soreness, and stimulate your nervous system for a fast, full‑body reset.
During your first visit, the team will review your goals, medical history, and recent training or injuries to decide if cryotherapy is appropriate and how to time it with your workouts. You’ll change into appropriate clothing, put on provided gloves, socks, and slippers, step into the chamber for your 2–3 minute session, then walk out feeling energized, clear‑headed, and ready to take on your day.
Cryotherapy for Active Recovery and Performance
Cryotherapy is ideal for athletes, active adults, and high performers who want faster recovery, less soreness, and a reliable way to manage day‑to‑day aches and stress. It can be especially helpful for people dealing with chronic stiffness, joint irritation, or training volume that leaves them feeling beat‑up between sessions.
Inflammation and pain from nagging or overuse issues
Can support short‑term relief for irritated joints, overuse aches, and flare‑ups so you can move more comfortably while you rehab.
Energy, mood, and sleep support under stress
Many people report a post‑session rush of energy, improved mood, and better sleep quality when cryotherapy is used regularly.
Performance, resilience, and longevity routines
Whole‑body cryotherapy is used in pro sports facilities, high‑performance gyms, and recovery centers as part of ongoing durability and performance programs.

Cryotherapy Frequently Asked Questions
Cryotherapy works well for healthy adults and can be adjusted based on your recovery goals, training schedule, and medical history. The Recover Pro team customizes session length and temperature settings to match your plan.
This service should be used with caution—or avoided—by people with uncontrolled high blood pressure, significant heart disease, circulation problems, or cold‑sensitive conditions. If you have any of these concerns, clear it with your healthcare provider first. The team will help you figure out if cryotherapy fits your plan or if another recovery option makes more sense.
Is cryotherapy safe?
Whole‑body cryotherapy is generally well‑tolerated when done in a controlled setting with proper screening, timing, and supervision. Risks such as frostbite, skin irritation, and blood pressure spikes are rare but real, so it is important to keep skin completely dry, wear proper protective gear, and avoid sessions if you have uncontrolled hypertension, serious heart disease, or other high‑risk conditions unless cleared by a provider.
How should I time cryotherapy around my workouts?
For muscle growth and strength gains, research suggests that doing intense cold therapy immediately after lifting can blunt some of the hypertrophy signals. A better strategy is to use cryotherapy before training to prime the nervous system or wait roughly 4–6 hours after your workout so your body can start the muscle‑building process first.
How long is a typical session?
What happens during a session? You’ll check in, change as instructed, and put on gloves, socks, and slippers provided by the team. After a brief safety check, you’ll step into the chamber for a 2–3 minute session while your coach or provider monitors you and guides breathing and positioning; once finished, you step out, warm up, and most people feel an immediate boost in energy and a gradual stacking of recovery benefits with regular use.
What makes the Recover Pro cryotherapy chamber different?
The chamber at Recover Pro is 100% electric—no nitrogen or gas—so you breathe normal air throughout the entire session.
It fits 1–2 people and includes LED lighting, Bluetooth music, and touchscreen controls for a more comfortable, customized experience.
The system also has UL‑level and industry‑leading safety features, with more than a million safe sessions delivered nationwide on this platform.
Who should not do cryotherapy?
People who are pregnant, children, and those with uncontrolled high blood pressure, serious cardiovascular disease, certain circulation problems, or cold‑reactive skin conditions are commonly advised to avoid whole‑body cryotherapy or only use it with explicit medical clearance.
Anyone with complex medical history should speak with a qualified provider to decide if this treatment is appropriate.
