Focus: Stress & Cryo Reset

A cryo reset after the working day – for guests from Berkheim

Constant stress keeps the body on high alert – Cryotherapy interrupts that pattern in just three minutes. The intense cold impulse at -110 °C demands full attention, after which a deep relaxation sets in that many describe as a genuine "reset". The release of endorphins noticeably lifts mood, while guests from Berkheim often report calmer sleep the night after a cryo session. Coming from work in Berkheim, plan on about an hour in total for travel, the session and the rest period afterwards – it's around 19 minutes each way.

Appointments from Berkheim can be booked online; questions are answered by phone beforehand. Berkheim liegt an der A7-Anschlussstelle Berkheim, nur Minuten von Memmingen. Many then plan another quiet half hour. The most common reason in Berkheim: Back pain and tension. Guests from Biberach district often come during their lunch break or straight after work. Getting here from Berkheim is simple: über die B312, 18 kilometres, roughly 19 minutes.

In Biberach district many combine the session with fresh-air movement – a walk or easy ride afterwards extends the feeling of warmth.

  • An endorphin kick and a clear head after the cryo session
  • Deeper sleep the night after the session
  • Interrupting stress patterns through the cold impulse
  • More calm in everyday life

The physiology

What happens during a cryotherapy (cryo) session

At -110 °C the body first reacts through skin receptors: superficial vessels constrict, blood shifts towards the core and the sympathetic nervous system is briefly activated. After leaving the chamber the vessels widen again – this alternation is the actual training stimulus of cryotherapy (cryo).

The literature mainly looks at inflammatory parameters, recovery after exertion and pain perception. The evidence differs in strength depending on the question, so we deliberately speak of possible effects rather than guaranteed results.

  • Vasoconstriction

    Superficial vessels narrow during exposure, blood shifts towards the core.

  • Reactive perfusion

    Vessels widen again afterwards – the alternation acts like vascular training.

  • Cold adaptation

    Repeated stimuli over several weeks change how the body responds to cold.

For guests from Berkheim

What the cold treatment can do

Whether someone from Berkheim comes to Cryotherapy (Cryo) for back pain, for their figure, or simply for more energy: the cold impulse is the same, but the focus isn't. These four areas sum up what Cryotherapy can do.

Whether the trip from Berkheim pays off usually becomes clear after three to five sessions – that's how long the body needs to settle into the cold stimulus.

For first visits from Berkheim we deliberately allow a little more time. If you already use a sauna in Berkheim, you can combine both: heat and cold complement each other well. After the holidays many from Berkheim use the chamber as a restart for their own rhythm.

Please note: we cannot promise any cure – every body responds differently to cold therapy. Results also depend on regular sessions of at least 2–3 times a week over a longer period.

The process for guests from Berkheim

How it works!

Before you set off from Berkheim, it's worth looking at how a Cryotherapy (Cryo) session works: the session itself takes just three minutes, with changing, a briefing and a short rest period around it. On site we explain every step in person – no one steps into the cryo chamber unprepared.

Arrival & briefing

Arrive relaxed

We calmly explain the process and answer all your questions before your first session.

Getting ready

Change & get ready

Swimwear, hat, gloves, socks and a face mask – your skin stays dry and free of creams.

3 minutes at -110 °C

Into the cold

Dry cold down to -110 °C, evenly distributed by our eddy-current cooling (Cyclon).

Step out & feel it

Done. Now feel it.

Warmth, tingling, freshness: many feel the effect right after the very first session.

Chamber temperature

-110 °C

Duration

03:00 MIN

Good to know

Session lasting 3 minutes of dry cold at -110°C.

The difference: whole-body cryotherapy with eddy-current cooling (Cyclon) that circulates the cold air evenly around the body.

The cold penetrates about 1mm into the skin and stimulates the nerve endings – including the vagus nerve, which runs along the cervical spine, is positively stimulated by the cold.

The stimulus on the skin travels to the brain and can trigger the positive effects.

Dry cold in general triggers the release of adrenaline and the happiness hormone dopamine, as well as corticoids, for regeneration.

Blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and triglycerides can gradually normalize.

Even after the very first session you feel better, more at ease – a true mood booster. Already inside the cold chamber you can sense something happening in your body, and afterwards you feel reborn – an indescribable tingling on the skin, a feeling of warmth and a wonderful sense of relaxation follow.

You are professionally supervised throughout the session: we discuss your health situation beforehand, explain the process and stay in visual and verbal contact. We recommend 2–3 sessions per week.

Focus: Sport & Cryo Recovery

Cryo recovery for athletes from Berkheim

Athletes from Berkheim rarely have much time to recover between two training sessions. That's exactly where Cryotherapy comes in: three minutes in the cryo chamber at -110 °C trigger a powerful cold stimulus that constricts blood vessels, dampens pain receptors and holds back inflammatory messengers. As soon as the session ends, the vessels open up again and the muscles are flushed with fresh, oxygen-rich blood. Active people from Biberach district therefore deliberately book their cryo session after training or the day after a competition – with around 19 minutes' drive from Berkheim, that's easy to fit in.

Guests from Berkheim mainly report two effects: a clear head in the evening and calmer sleep the following night.

Those coming from Berkheim have often already tried physiotherapy or sauna and are looking for an extra stimulus. From Berkheim we often hear that muscle soreness is far milder the next day. The drive from Berkheim takes about 19 minutes without traffic.

  • Shorter recovery windows between two training sessions
  • Cryo stimulus against irritation in tendons and joints
  • A fresh feeling before competition
  • Combines well with physiotherapy and strength training

Practical tips for Berkheim

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Berkheim

Bundling trips is worthwhile from Berkheim: many guests combine the cryo session with shopping, a doctor's appointment or training in Memmingen. That way, the 18 km trip becomes not an extra errand but a fixed part of the weekly rhythm.

Summer or winter?

Many people in Berkheim start a cryo series in autumn to get through the infection season well, and continue in spring for reasons of shape and skin. Cryotherapy works regardless of weather and season.

Cryotherapy (Cryo), ice bath or sauna?

There are lakes, streams and, in winter, plenty of cold around Berkheim – yet Cryotherapy is something different. Cold water cools the body's core and needs a long time to get used to. The dry cryo cold at -110 °C works within three minutes through the skin's receptors, without the core cooling down. The stimulus is stronger, and the strain on circulation is shorter and more controlled.
