Cryotherapy Benefits: A medical treatment rut-buster and magic eraser for your skin

Calling all chronic health condition sufferers and maturing bodies

You can safely exceed the limits of traditional healthcare and gently erase all kinds of skin irregularities - including wrinkles and sags – at the very same time. It sounds unbelievable until you understand how it works, then it actually makes a lot of sense.

If you have a chronic health condition and have been told it’s the best it’s going to get by your healthcare provider, don’t lose heart. Cryotherapy is a legitimate option to consider to reach a breakthrough.


And it’s not just a hack for celebrities and athletes - it’s more affordable and accessible than you may think. Let’s talk about what it is, how it works, and everything you need to know, especially those incredible benefits!


What is cryotherapy?

Cryotherapy is simply applying the benefits of extreme cold to the body for therapeutic purposes. It reduces the body’s core temperature to aid in pain relief and reduce inflammation. It works at a cellular and physiological level, lowering nerve transmission (pain signals) and oxidative stress (free radicals that cause cell damage).


How does cryotherapy work?

At CryoWellness.Fit in Hermosa Beach, CA, we use an electric, nitrogen-free, whole-body cryochamber. In a full body session, you enter into a commercial-grade unit the size of a fitting room wearing minimal clothing. While standing inside the unit, cryogenically-cooled air circulates around you for up to 6 minutes as you are being monitored by a technician.


The temperature in the unit quickly decreases to –124°F, which initiates a physiological reaction within your body. This reaction is the moment that all of the transformative health and aesthetic benefits kick in.


Production of the stress hormone cortisol plummets, collagen production skyrockets, and up to an astonishing 800 calories are burned as a result of the body’s core systems being highly activated.

What are the benefits of cryotherapy?

Although not the relaxation station you would initially imagine, the aftereffect of such a highly energetic physiological response does include total muscle relaxation. And the key benefits only start there:


  • Reduces inflammation, pain and soreness

  • Increases energy, reduces fatigue

  • Promotes collagen production

  • Burns up to 800 calories per session

  • Revitalizes skin

  • Reduces stressors, enhances mood

  • Boosts blood circulation

  • Increases muscle recovery rate

  • Improves sleep quality


The elevated levels of circulation and collagen production are key when we’re talking about improved health outcomes and pushing past the limits of bottled medicine and traditional therapies.





Those have their place too, so it’s recommended to integrate cryotherapy into your existing regimen with the guidance of your healthcare provider. Cryotherapy is a natural way to circulate more oxygen throughout your body, experience the regenerative properties of collagen, and meaningfully repair your body at a cellular level from the inside out.

The cherry on top? A single session does way more heavy lifting than your $140 bottled moisturizer from Ulta. Smearing collogen cream into your skin is completely different than your body naturally producing its own from within.

Collagen is a protein in our skin that provides strength and structure, which visibly translates to elasticity and supple smoothness. Production of this protein declines as we mature, even as early as 30 years old.


Aging is a gift. It means we’re still alive. But we can still look and feel our best.

What’s the difference between full body and shoulder-down cryotherapy units?

Chambers that include the head have a tremendous edge over the shoulder-down style. Allowing your head to receive cryotherapy means that your neck, face, and hair also experience a major boost in collagen production. Plus, a more relaxed neck reduces tension, eases headaches, and promotes stress relief throughout your entire body. All of those miraculous benefits flow head to toe without any disconnect at your shoulders.


What’s the science behind cryotherapy?

Although viewed as an alternative therapy outside of mainstream healthcare practices, countless studies have demonstrated its overall effectiveness when administered by trained technicians and professionals using commercial grade equipment.


Research has shown that sufferers of asthma, chronic pain, fatigue, migraines, mood disorders, and different types of arthritis are helped in the treatment and management of those conditions. WebMD noted that “For several of these conditions, the studies showed benefits after several rounds of whole-body cryotherapy” in the cases they reviewed.


Cryotherapy is tremendous for most users, but it’s not quite for everyone with certain underlying conditions. Verify with a healthcare provider that is well-informed on the benefits of cryotherapy so he or she can give you credible direction.


The FDA has not yet placed attention on this therapy to be able to review and approve its use. However, the growing number of testimonials of chronic condition sufferers is absolutely compelling and continues to drive more awareness to this vitally important therapy.

How much does cryotherapy cost?

Depending where you live, the average price for a session under 10 minutes can start at $75. And you’ll need more than one session depending on the outcome you’re targeting.


At CryoWellness.Fit, we offer multiple monthly membership options to choose from without any contracts or commitments. Unlike other cryotherapy clinics, we also provide commercial grade red light therapy and infrared sauna services under one roof to harness the transformative healing and aesthetic benefits of all three combined.

We are positive the benefits you receive will have a transformative effect in your health and quality of life. We invite first time clients to experience one free session or enjoy a week of unlimited visits for only $69 to try everything.
