Yes, you can do both. If you choose to workout before your treatment, we ask that you allow enough time for your core body temperature to cool down before your session. In addition, you must be completely dry (no sweat). We strongly recommend working out after your cryotherapy session so you can reap the full benefits of feeling more energised and flexible.
A general session will be around -130 degrees Celsius. The temperature and duration are adjusted to suit your specific comfort levels and personal goals.
A Whole Body Cryotherapy session is a maximum of 3 minutes. The time and temperature are adjusted to suit your specific comfort levels and goals.
The following conditions are contraindications to whole body cryotherapy:
Pregnancy, severe Hypertension (BP> 180/100), acute or recent myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, arrhythmia, symptomatic cardiovascular disease, cardiac pacemaker, peripheral arterial occlusive disease, venous thrombosis, acute or recent cerebrovascular accident, uncontrolled seizures, Raynaud’s Syndrome, fever, tumour disease, symptomatic lung disorders, bleeding disorders, severe anaemia, infection, claustrophobia, cold allergy, age less than 18 years (parental consent to treatment needed), acute kidney and urinary tract diseases.
Whole body cryotherapy is very well tolerated and has minimal risks: Fluctuations in blood pressure during the procedure by up to 10 points systolically (this effect reverses after the end of the procedure, as peripheral circulation returns to normal), allergic reaction to extreme cold (rare), redness, and skin burns (only if exposed to low temperatures longer than recommended).
There are two different timeframes we offer. Depending on the size of the area and requirements will determine the timeframe. We have Small area sessions that last from 5 to 6 minutes and Large area session that cool for 10 – 12 minutes. The longer you cool the area will obviously be more beneficial. Generally, a Large session is initially required.
The most common feeling is being energised. During your session, the cold acts on your hormone levels. Your body’s natural fight or flight response is activated and dopamine, endorphins, and serotonin levels are elevated. Most clients report a revitalised or energised feeling for 6-8 hours after a session. The next most common experience reported is analgesic or pain mitigating effect. This is primarily affected in 2 ways. The first way is removal of pain caused from inflammation. The second way pain is minimised is by disallowing white blood cells to enter damaged muscles thereby circumventing muscular inflammation. Other normal experiences are shortened recovery periods, minimisation of delayed onset muscle soreness, alleviation of joint pain and stiffness, increased flexibility, and increased muscular performance.

As long as the vapour can have direct contact with your skin, normal cloths are all that is required. Depending on the treatment area, you may be required to remove some clothing to enable the area to be treated.

Yes, compression therapy is safe to use before working out! In fact, it is great before working out or training because of the enhance circulation and mobility it offers.
FloCryo’s dynamic compression systems are safe to use multiple times a day, including before and after training sessions. For medical applications, consult your doctor on treatment protocols best suited for your medical needs.
Compression Therapy speeds up your body’s natural healing processes by enhancing blood flow to your muscles to facilitate cellular repair and protein synthesis, boosting lymphatic drainage to relieve inflammation and reduce swelling, and mobilising toxins such as lactic acid and excess fluids. What you’ll notice is less stiffness and soreness, as well as increased mobility and flexibility. It’s important to note that the speed at which you recover involves several factors, such as your age, level of fitness, sleep, and diet. No matter your situation, however, compression therapy can significantly cut down your recovery time. Our Compression devices are based on existing medical technology that employs dynamic compression. Years of medical research and application have proven the benefit of dynamic compression. As a result, intermittent compression devices are ideal for athletes who must constantly recover and heal as they push their bodies to new limits.
While Compression Therapy is safe to use for a variety of applications, please consult your doctor before using if you know or suspect you may have the following: deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism (blood clot) or edema, thrombophlebitis, inflammation of the skin (e.g., erysipelas, cellulitis), ischemic vascular disease, severe peripheral neuropathy, or related issues and complications.
Our dynamic compression therapy is ideal for post-workout recovery because it enhances blood circulation, removes lactic acid, and reduces swelling and inflammation. At the same time, Compression Therapy has a variety of medical indications, including lymphedema, venous insufficiency, and venous thromboembolism prophylaxis. It can also be applied to other circulation-related issues that stem from varicose veins, diabetes, surgery, injury, etc. If you are interested in using compression therapy for a medical condition, please talk to your doctor first about the benefits of intermittent pneumatic compression for your specific needs.
Compression Therapy is ideal right after a workout, race, or event, especially after a long, arduous one. However, you can use the boots after a long day, anytime your legs are feeling sore, or whenever you feel you need to. Another important thing to remember is that while Compression Therapy can help with recovery after one use, helping your body recover is an investment of time and requires consistency. In other words, make a habit of using Compression Therapy! Also, remember to eat well and get enough sleep. Dynamic compression is an important part of recovery, but it’s not the only part. Cryotherapy can help in other areas.
While Compression Therapy is safe to use for a variety of applications, please consult your doctor before using if you know or suspect you may have the following: deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism (blood clot) or edema, thrombophlebitis, inflammation of the skin (e.g., erysipelas, cellulitis), ischemic vascular disease, severe peripheral neuropathy, or related issues and complications.
Due to its customisability of settings, our compression therapy can accommodate a wide range of people, from athletes who use it for a competitive edge to geriatric patients suffering from circulatory and lymphatic complications. Refer to the contraindications question to see who should not use it without first consulting his or her doctor.
