The cryosauna is an opposite of a usual sauna, with the temperatures ranging from −120 to −170˚С. The session feels more comfortable than bathing in cold water, because the air is a poor conductor, especially if it is dry. Another advantage of an open cryocabin (cryosauna) is that the patient, lifted up with the movable floor, is immersed in the cold gas only up to his shoulders. Thus he can feel more comfortable due to unimpared breathing and to uninterrupted contact with the attending personnel.

Criomed, Ltd. offers different models of cryosaunas SPACE CABIN. You can read more about the models here and here. To see photos go to our photogallery.

The temperature goes down to −170˚ within first 30 seconds and then remains stable. All the procedure takes 60 to 180 seconds. Normally the course of 10 to 20 sessions is recommended. Within first 60 seconds the skin temperature goes down to 0˚С, but then due to increase in peripheral blood circulation goes up to 35˚С (the normal skin temperature is 32.5°С). The internal body temperature remains unchanged. Compensatory temperature rise is kept for 1.5 to 3 hours.

The cold in cryosauna naturally stimulates the immune system, which results in revision of all internal organs, regulates the endocrine profile and metabolism, and energizes the body due to additional release of endorphins (happiness hormones). The cryosauna improves microcirculation, optimizes metabolic processes, enhances skin turgor, dramatically improves the appearance of the skin.

Depending on the weight, the patient loses during one session at least 1,000 kcal. In some cases the patients shed 7 to 10 kg within a series of 20-30 sessions.

The cryo procedures are absolutely safe both for patients and for service personnel.  To find out more about the specifications of the cryosauna Space Cabin, maintenance and requirements to the room to locate the cabin, go to Specifications.
