Item Description

Certificate for 3 sessions of whole body cryotherapy donated by Penn State basketball alum, Tyler Smith. 

Whole Body Cryotherapy was originally developed in Japan in 1978 for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.  It has been researched for decades in Europe. The client steps into the Cryosauna where hyper-cooled air from gasiform nitrogen flows over the body, lowering the skin surface temperature to 32-35F in 30-40 seconds.  The body reacts to the skin sensors by stimulating the regulatory functions. During each session, the body releases endorphins which increase your energy and improve your mood.  These buoyant effects often last up to 6-8 hours.  Many clients express that they have a great night’s sleep after Cryotherapy.
