Safety Instructions - What To Wear

Because of the exposure to extremely cold temperatures, there are mandatory requirements for apparel to be worn in the chamber. You should arrive in or bring the following gym attire: Men recommended: (swimsuit or shorts, cotton underwear is the best choice). Women recommended: (swimsuit or shorts and top, cotton underwear and sport bra is the best choice). We will provide knee high socks, headband, gloves, face mask and clogs. Please avoid wearing jeans, slacks, or other loose fitting clothing as they have a tendency to harden immediately, making walking more difficult. All jewelry and piercing(s) must be removed before entering the chamber.

This short duration of exposure would be safe even without the protective apparel. However, Cycle & Cryo Body Mind insists that you wear the mandatory cover for your skin and respiratory protection and to maximize the benefits of your experience.

You should not exercise or shower prior to the chamber treatment. Any type of body condensation will freeze during exposure. It is recommended that you pat yourself dry with a towel before entering the chamber and do not apply lotions, oils, cologne or any alcohol based products prior to treatment.
