At Adventure Fitness Athletic Club in Thornton, CO something new has arrived, The Recovery XR cryotherapy chamber by Cryo Innovations. Cryo Innovations says “The Recovery XR cryotherapy chamber is the safest, most technologically advanced…cryo chamber invented”.
How does it work?
Cryo Innovations says, “The Whole-body Cryosauna uses a gaseous form of nitrogen to lower skin surface temperature by 30-50 degrees during a two-three minute session. The exposed skin reacts to the extreme temperatures by sending messages to the brain that stimulate natural regulatory functions of the body. In addition, the skin’s exposure to these subzero temperatures trigger the release of anti-inflammatory molecules, endorphins, toxins, and increases oxygen circulation within the bloodstream”.
How is it safe?
The liquid nitrogen used doesn’t contact the skin and is safe to breathe. This chamber is also equipped with over 10 built in safety features including an oxygen monitor and thermal imaging.
