  • What is full-body cryotherapy?

    Full-body cryotherapy is a wellness treatment that briefly exposes your body to extremely cold temperatures. This exposure stimulates the body's natural healing processes, including reducing inflammation, alleviating pain, and improving muscle recovery. Many people enjoy it as part of their routine at a med spa.
  • Is cryotherapy safe?

    Cryotherapy is safe when administered by trained professionals following proper safety protocols. Whether you're getting full-body cryotherapy or a cryofacial, at Ultra Cryo & Recovery, we ensure all clients are properly informed and equipped with the necessary protective gear for each session.
  • How long does a cryotherapy session last?

    In our experience, a typical cryotherapy session lasts approximately 10 minutes from beginning to end. Despite the short duration, the exposure to extreme cold temperatures provides significant health benefits and can complement facials or other wellness treatments.
  • Will I feel uncomfortable or painful during the treatment?

    While the cold can be intense, cryotherapy is generally not painful. Most clients feel only a chilling sensation, and our staff closely monitors your comfort and safety throughout the session. In the event of mild discomfort, Cleveland Clinic notes it usually resolves within about three days, making this a safe med spa treatment.
  • How many sessions are recommended for optimal results?

    The recommended number of sessions varies based on individual goals and physical condition. While some benefits are immediate, regular sessions may provide more substantial and lasting results, including improved skin tightening. We can develop a customized plan tailored to your specific needs.
  • Are there any conditions that would prevent me from using cryotherapy?

    Certain medical conditions, such as hypertension, severe heart disease, and pregnancy, may preclude safe use of cryotherapy. We conduct a thorough pre-session consultation to assess your eligibility and determine if this anti aging treatment is right for you.
  • What should I wear during the session?

    We provide specialized protective clothing for your session, including gloves, socks, and footwear. Whether you're getting full-body cryotherapy or a cryofacial, it's crucial to keep your extremities protected during the treatment.
  • How quickly will I notice results?

    Many clients report feeling refreshed and invigorated immediately after their initial session. Long-term benefits, such as pain reduction and enhanced body contouring effects, may require multiple sessions to become noticeable.
  • Is there an age limit for cryotherapy?

    Generally, clients need to be 18 years or older to use cryotherapy. Minors may participate with parental consent and supervision. However, we evaluate each case individually during the consultation process to ensure safety and suitability for all facials and wellness treatments.
