Full body reset with fast & effective hyper-cooling

Increased Athletic Performance

Cryotherapy triggers your body’s fight-or-flight response. As a result, your body releases adrenaline, and blood flow is directed to the brain and essential organs. Your heart rate increases, so more blood reaches your muscles. This boost of muscle energy means you can train harder for longer to become a stronger athlete.

Weight Loss

After your cryotherapy session, your body works overtime to regulate your core temperature. This increase in metabolic activity results in you burning more calories over the next 24-hour period. Studies show that people burn up to 800 calories after a cryotherapy session.

Muscle Recovery

Cryotherapy reduces inflammation and boosts blood circulation, speeding up your recovery time. It is a great passive form of recovery that allows you to rest while accelerating your physical recovery.

Mood Booster

Cold Therapy triggers hormonal responses. Some of these hormones are adrenaline, noradrenaline and endorphins. Studies have shown that increasing levels of these hormones can positively impact anxiety and depression.

Pain Management

Cryotherapy temporarily constricts blood vessels, reducing inflammation and pain by slowing nerve signals to the brain.

Better Sleep

As mentioned, releasing hormones promotes relaxation and acts as a mild sedative. The metabolic activity increase helps tire you out by the end of the day, making you tired and calm so that you can sleep better.

What is Whole Body Cryotherapy, and how does it work?

Cryotherapy comes from the Greek words Cryo, meaning cold, and Therapy, meaning cure. Cold therapies have been utilised since the 17th century to help diminish pain.

Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) is a modernistic strategy to traditional cold Therapy, which utilises an innovative climate-controlled chamber to deliver various therapeutic and recovery benefits.

WBC is an alternative to cold water therapy or ice products, which exposes clients and athletes to cold, dry air for up to three minutes. WBC is non-invasive and significantly more comfortable than an ice bath or any other traditional form of cold therapy, delivering accelerated results.

During a cryotherapy session, your body constricts peripheral tissues, sending blood from the skin surface, muscle tissue and surrounding joints to the core to protect core temperature. The blood travels to the body’s centre and follows its natural filtration pathway. It passes through the cardiovascular system, cleansed of toxins and pumped full of oxygen, nutrients and enzymes. The body continues to flush the tissue of toxins and circulate blood, continuing its normal flushing process and reaction to subzero temperatures.

After a cryotherapy session, your body immediately returns the enriched blood to the peripheral tissues, delivering blood back to the skin, muscle tissue and surrounding joint space, providing various benefits.

Book Online

    We offer the options of Eftpos, Visa, Mastercard and Cash. We also offer Afterpay on-site.

    To read full terms and conditions please visit our Terms and Conditions page.

    To obtain optimal cryotherapy results and to keep your skin safe, you should ensure:

    • Your skin is completely dry
    • You are not wearing any creams, lotions, sunscreen or oil on your body. Your face is fine as the cryo chamber chills you from the neck down. Please ensure you have showered to remove any product from your body before your appointment.
    • No jewellery or other metal is to be worn inside the cryo chamber, including the underwire in your bra or metal tags or buttons on your clothing.

    Depending on the condition you are treating, our professional staff will recommend a session that last between 1.5 and 3 minutes. No session is longer than 3 minutes.

    Multiple sessions will provide you with the most significant benefits. We recommend loading and maintenance phases, where you’ll initially do 7-10 sessions quickly, followed by 1-2 sessions a week for overall health and weight loss.

    For athletes, we’d recommend an initial blast of 10-15 sessions, followed by sessions after intense exercise to enhance recovery or before competitions to ensure you’re ready to perform at your best.

    We are happy to help you tailor the perfect program to suit your needs.

    While using the Cryosauna, your extremities will be protected by gloves, socks, and slippers. All jewellery must be removed. Women can choose whether to remove or wear undergarments; men must wear cotton underwear for protection.

    To reiterate, please do not wear any metal inside the cryo chamber. This includes the metal underwire in your bra.

    Upon arrival, our trained staff will greet you and answer any questions you may have to ensure you are entirely comfortable before commencing your session. You will complete and sign a waiver identifying any pre-existing conditions that may prevent you from using Cryotherapy.

    You will be supplied a robe, dry socks, gloves and an area to change in. Men need to wear cotton briefs or boxes, and women can wear underwear, sports bras or equivalent (not containing metal).

    Once you are changed, you will enter the Cryosauna to begin your first WBC (Whole Body Cryo) treatment. We take your privacy very seriously, and it is important to us! You can de-robe inside the sauna once the door is closed, with only your head and neck visible outside. Your robe will be returned to you, allowing you to dress before exiting the sauna.

    The platform will rise to the correct operating position. During the cold but quick 3-minute session, you may feel an array of immediate benefits, including a refreshing and energised feeling triggered by the brain releasing endorphins whilst burning 500-800 calories.

    Once the treatment ends and you are re-robed, you will then exit the sauna, re-dress in privacy and continue to reap the benefits of your first Cryotherapy treatment!

    You should NOT use whole-body cryotherapy if you have any of the following conditions:

    Pregnancy and or breastfeeding, Hypertension (BP> 180/100), acute or recent myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, arrhythmia, symptomatic cardiovascular disease, cardiac pacemaker, peripheral arterial occlusive disease, asthma, venous thrombosis, acute or recent cerebrovascular accident, uncontrolled seizures, Raynaud’s Syndrome, fever, tumour disease, symptomatic lung disorders, bleeding disorders, severe anaemia, infection, claustrophobia, cold allergy, age less than 18 years (parental consent to treatment needed), acute kidney and urinary tract diseases.

    If you have any concerns, speak to your doctor before booking in.

    Yes. Cryotherapy uses cold air, and the cooling agents never actually come into contact with your skin. The air is chilled using liquid nitrogen, and nitrogen makes up 78% of the air we breathe. Because the temperature change in your body is only superficial, your internal body temperature remains constant throughout treatment. Your head will remain outside of the low-temperature area.

    The Cryosauna has several safety features. While the door closes, it never locks, so you fully control your environment. A trained operator is always present to ensure your maximum safety. In addition, the room is equipped with oxygen sensors and proper ventilation systems to ensure optimal air quality. Our staff are highly trained to ensure you experience ultimate healing and safety.

    When the session is complete, your skin will return to its average temperature within minutes. Immediately after, you may feel a slight tingling sensation, but within minutes, you will likely feel relaxed and muscular pain generally begins to subside immediately. Many patients report feeling invigorated with diminished pain symptoms immediately after WBC. Additionally, many experience better sleep after a session, and the stimulating effects of a session are cumulative and long-lasting with additional treatments.
