What is Cryotherapy?
Whether you are an athlete, founder, executive, or wellness-focused professional, cryotherapy supports your body’s natural recovery processes so you can continue operating at a high level.
At Cool Indulge, all sessions take place in a private treatment room, with Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) in an individual cryotherapy chamber. During a standard session (typically reaching temperatures as low as approximately -200°F to -250°F), brief cold exposure triggers vasoconstriction — a temporary narrowing of blood vessels near the skin’s surface.² This response redirects blood toward the core.
When the session ends, blood flow returns to peripheral tissues (vasodilation), a process associated with increased circulation and oxygen delivery.² Many clients report feeling energized, clear-headed, and physically refreshed in the hours following their session.³
Cold exposure also stimulates thermogenesis — the body’s natural heat-producing response — which may temporarily increase metabolic activity.² Additionally, brief cold exposure has been associated with endorphin release and improved subjective well-being.³
Who can benefit from Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is designed for anyone who prioritize their health as intentionally as they do their careers and lifestyle.
You’ll benefit most if you are among:
Athletes and fitness enthusiasts seeking faster muscle recovery, reduced inflammation, and peak physical performance
Those experiencing chronic pain, inflammation, or muscle soreness and looking for a natural, non-invasive recovery solution
Individuals navigating low drive, brain fog, or seasonal mood dips who want to support endorphin release and nervous system balance
Busy executives, parents, and entrepreneurs who struggle with sleep and want to optimize recovery overnight
Hands-on professionals and physical labor workers who demand more from their bodies and need accelerated repair
Professionals, founders, and self-starters managing high stress who want mental clarity, elevated mood, and sustained energy

Your Cryotherapy, Your Way:
Whole Body Cryotherapy
Modern take on the traditional ice bath: no need to dry-off after!
Exposes the body to ultra-low temperatures of about -225°F to -250°F
3 minute session
Commonly used to accelerate post-workout recovery and destress
Our Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) involves exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures of -250°F for 3 minutes with the use of nitrogen gas.
At Cool Indulge, your entire WBC session will take place in a private room and individual cryotherapy chamber. This ensures consistent temperature regulation and privacy in comparison to other studios’ “locker room” cryotherapy layouts.
Localized Cryotherapy
15-minute session
Focused cryotherapy on a specific area of the body
Popular choices include (but are not limited to) neck, shoulders, and lower back
Using the same -250°F nitrogen gas as whole body cryotherapy, the 15-minute session focuses on a targeted area to alleviate inflammation, pain, and muscle soreness.
Localized cryotherapy is also effective on the face to help reduce redness, wrinkles, acne scaring, and help build collagen within the skin to help tighten and glow.
LED Light therapy is highly-recommended following localized cryotherapy to encourage muscle recovery and pain reduction.
