FAQ
Whole body cryotherapy is a treatment that involves exposing the body to extremely cold air for a short period, usually between two to four minutes. The temperatures can range from -200°F to -250°F.
During a WBC session, you enter a cryotherapy chamber or a cryosauna. The extreme cold stimulates the skin's temperature receptors to activate the nervous system, which releases endorphins and reduces inflammation.
Reported benefits include pain relief, reduced muscle soreness, improved skin condition, increased metabolism, better sleep, and a boost in mood.
Generally, WBC is considered safe for most people. However, it's not recommended for individuals with certain health conditions, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or pregnancy.
It’s recommended to wear minimal clothing like shorts and a tank top, along with protective gear such as gloves, socks, and earmuffs, which are usually provided by the facility.
A typical session lasts between two to four minutes.
This varies by individual and purpose. Some do it once a week, while others may undergo treatment more frequently. It's best to consult with a cryotherapy professional.
Some studies suggest that WBC might boost metabolism and help with weight loss, but it should not be relied upon as a sole method for losing weight.
Some people might experience temporary numbness, redness, or tingling. Major side effects are rare but can occur.
- Many users report feeling refreshed or having increased energy immediately after a session, but results can vary. Some benefits, like reduced inflammation, may take a series of sessions to become noticeable.
Red Light Sauna Pod
The Cocoon Wellness Red Light Pod is a type of wellness device that combines red light therapy with a soothing, pod-like environment. It's designed to offer benefits like skin rejuvenation, pain relief, and relaxation.
The pod emits specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. These wavelengths penetrate the skin and can stimulate cellular repair and energy production, offering various health and wellness benefits.
Benefits may include improved skin health, enhanced muscle recovery, pain reduction, increased circulation, and overall relaxation.
Red light therapy is generally considered safe. However, it’s always recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new therapy, especially if you have underlying health conditions.
Sessions typically last between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the specific treatment goals and the guidelines of the wellness center offering the service.
The recommended frequency can vary based on individual goals and responses to the therapy. Some people use it several times a week, while others may use it less frequently.
While red light therapy may support metabolic function and muscle recovery, it should not be solely relied upon for weight loss. A balanced diet and regular exercise are also crucial.
Side effects are rare and typically mild but can include temporary redness of the skin.
The pod provides a warm, comfortable environment, but it does not heat the body to uncomfortable levels. The warmth is part of the relaxing experience.
- While suitable for most people, individuals with certain medical conditions or sensitivities to light may need to avoid its use.
NormaTec Compression Boots are a recovery system used primarily by athletes. They use air pressure to provide a massage-like experience, aiming to enhance blood flow, reduce muscle soreness, and speed up recovery.
The boots use a patented pulsing action, mimicking the muscle pump of the legs to move fluid and metabolites out of the limbs after intense activity. This can help reduce recovery time and improve muscle function.
Benefits include reduced muscle soreness and swelling, increased circulation, and faster recovery from workouts. They are also often used for relaxation purposes.
A typical session can last from 20 to 60 minutes, depending on personal preference and recovery needs.
They can be used daily, especially after intense workouts. Frequency can be adjusted based on personal recovery needs and comfort.
While they are safe for most people, individuals with certain medical conditions, such as deep vein thrombosis or severe varicose veins, should consult a healthcare professional before use.
While they primarily aid in recovery, improved recovery can indirectly contribute to better athletic performance by allowing for more efficient training.
Yes, anyone experiencing muscle fatigue or soreness can use the boots, not just athletes. They can be beneficial for people who stand or sit for long periods.
NormaTec offers different sizes to accommodate different body sizes and shapes. They also offer attachments for other body parts, like the hips and arms.
- Comfortable clothing is recommended. Avoid wearing anything that could impede the compression, like tight or thick garments.
Local cryotherapy is a targeted cold therapy treatment that applies extremely cold temperatures to specific areas of the body, typically using a handheld device or cryo chamber.
While whole body cryotherapy exposes the entire body to cold temperatures, local cryotherapy targets specific areas, making it ideal for treating localized pain, inflammation, or injuries.
Local cryotherapy can be beneficial for relieving pain and inflammation associated with injuries, arthritis, tendonitis, muscle strains, and post-surgical recovery. It can also aid in enhancing athletic performance and accelerating recovery.
Local cryotherapy is generally well-tolerated and typically does not cause pain. Some individuals may experience temporary discomfort or tingling sensation during treatment, which usually subsides quickly.
Local cryotherapy sessions typically last between 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the area being treated and the individual's tolerance to cold temperatures.
The number of recommended sessions varies depending on the condition being treated and individual goals. Some individuals may experience relief after just one session, while others may benefit from multiple sessions spaced out over time.
Side effects of local cryotherapy are rare but may include temporary redness, numbness, or skin irritation in the treated area. These side effects typically resolve quickly after the treatment.
Individuals with certain medical conditions, such as Raynaud's disease, cold hypersensitivity, or circulation disorders, should avoid local cryotherapy. Pregnant women and individuals with open wounds or infections in the treatment area should also refrain from treatment.
Yes, local cryotherapy is popular among athletes for its ability to reduce muscle soreness, inflammation, and speed up recovery after intense workouts or sports-related injuries.
Many individuals experience immediate relief from pain and inflammation following a local cryotherapy session. However, optimal results may require multiple sessions over time, with benefits often becoming more pronounced with continued treatment.
Body Comp Scan
An InBody scan is a non-invasive body composition analysis that provides detailed information about muscle mass, body fat percentage, hydration levels, and other key metrics to assess overall health and fitness.
During an InBody scan, electrodes are used to send a low-level electrical current through the body. The current passes more quickly through lean tissue, such as muscle, and slower through fat tissue, allowing the InBody device to measure body composition accurately.
An InBody scan provides information about body fat percentage, muscle mass, visceral fat levels, basal metabolic rate (BMR), segmental lean mass analysis (arms, legs, trunk), and total body water.
Yes, an InBody scan is safe and non-invasive. It uses low-level electrical currents that are well below the threshold considered harmful to the body.
An InBody scan typically takes just a few minutes to complete. The actual scanning process lasts around 30 to 60 seconds, and results are available immediately afterward.
To ensure accurate results, it's recommended to avoid eating or drinking anything, exercising vigorously, or taking a shower immediately before the scan. It's also best to empty your bladder before the scan.
Anyone interested in tracking their body composition, assessing their fitness progress, or optimizing their nutrition and exercise regimen can benefit from an InBody scan. It's particularly useful for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and individuals with specific health or weight loss goals.
The frequency of InBody scans depends on individual goals and preferences. Some people choose to get scanned monthly to track progress, while others may opt for quarterly or semi-annual scans to monitor changes over time.
Yes, InBody scans are highly accurate and reliable for measuring body composition. However, it's essential to follow the instructions provided before the scan to ensure optimal accuracy.
After the scan, a trained professional can help interpret your results and provide personalized recommendations based on your goals. InBody provides detailed printouts and online reports that explain each measurement and its significance in relation to your overall health and fitness.
A cryo facial, also known as cryotherapy facial or cryo glow facial, is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that involves using cold temperatures to rejuvenate the skin, reduce inflammation, and promote overall skin health.
During a cryo facial, a handheld device or cryo wand is used to deliver controlled blasts of cold air or cryogenically cooled air to the face. This helps to constrict blood vessels, tighten pores, and stimulate collagen production, resulting in a brighter, more youthful complexion.
Cryo facials offer numerous benefits, including improved skin tone and texture, reduced puffiness and inflammation, minimized pore size, increased collagen production, and a refreshed, radiant appearance.
No, cryo facials are generally painless and well-tolerated. Some individuals may experience a slight tingling or numbing sensation during the treatment, but this typically subsides quickly.
Cryo facial sessions typically last between 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the specific protocol used and the individual's skin condition.
The number of recommended cryo facial sessions varies depending on individual skin concerns and goals. Some individuals may see noticeable improvements after just one session, while a series of treatments spaced out over time may be recommended for more significant and long-lasting results.
Side effects of cryo facials are minimal and usually temporary. They may include temporary redness, numbness, or mild discomfort immediately following the treatment, but these effects typically resolve within a few minutes to hours.
Cryo facials are suitable for individuals of all skin types and ages who are looking to improve the appearance and health of their skin. They are particularly beneficial for those with concerns such as dullness, uneven skin tone, fine lines, wrinkles, and puffiness.
Yes, cryo facials can be combined with other skincare treatments, such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or LED light therapy, to enhance their effectiveness and achieve synergistic results.
Many individuals experience immediate results, such as tighter, smoother skin and a more youthful glow, after a cryo facial. However, optimal results may become more pronounced with regular treatments over time.
