Focus: Immune System & Cold Adaptation

Cold adaptation for the immune system – Cryotherapy for Herbrechtingen

Infections tend to pile up in Heidenheim district during the damp, cold months. The short, controlled cold impulse of Cryotherapy at -110 °C is a genuine training programme for the body: circulation, blood vessels and defences are all challenged, without the body actually cooling down the way it would in an ice bath, because the cryo cold is dry and lasts only three minutes. Many guests from Herbrechtingen therefore build Cryotherapy into a fixed winter routine, often twice a week. The effect builds up over a series – a single session is more of an experience than a training stimulus.

Many guests from Heidenheim district combine the appointment with shopping or a doctor's visit in Memmingen. Locally speaking: Herbrechtingen liegt rund 72 km von der Kältekammer in der Kempterstraße entfernt – die Fahrt dauert etwa 59 Minuten. In Herbrechtingen, recovery after sport and training tops the list. Questions about the trip from Herbrechtingen or about appointments? A quick call is enough. From Herbrechtingen the route runs über die A7 Richtung Memmingen; after 59 minutes and 72 kilometres you're at the door.

The effect lasts hours to days depending on your situation – so fixed weekdays suit guests from Herbrechtingen better than spontaneous visits.

  • A cold impulse that trains vessels and defences
  • Dry cryo cold – no cooling down like in an ice bath
  • A fixed winter routine with 2 cryo sessions a week
  • More alertness right after the session

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 Herbrechtingen

What the cold treatment can do

Cryotherapy (Cryo) doesn't work on a single spot but on the whole organism. Guests from Herbrechtingen therefore come with very different goals – from post-sport recovery to skin and sleep.

In practical terms the trip from Herbrechtingen is 72 kilometres each way; a ten-session package noticeably lowers the price per visit.

We keep early and late slots free so guests from Heidenheim district can come after work. The chamber doesn't replace physiotherapy; for many from Herbrechtingen it's a sensible addition. Demand from Heidenheim district peaks between October and March – booking early pays off.

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 Herbrechtingen

How it works!

To make the trip from Herbrechtingen worthwhile, here's the essentials about Cryotherapy (Cryo): -110 °C, dry air, eddy-current cooling, three minutes. The overview below shows what happens in the body.

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: Work & Cryo Recovery

From Herbrechtingen it's only around 59 minutes – including changing and the cryo session, you're done in about 30 minutes.

Practical tips for Herbrechtingen

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Herbrechtingen

For a start from Herbrechtingen, we recommend a cryo series of 10 sessions within four to five weeks. During this time the body gets used to the cold impulse, and the effects on sleep, energy and complaints become more noticeable. After that, many guests maintain the level with one cryo session a week.

Summer or winter?

Many people in Herbrechtingen 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?

Sauna and Cryotherapy aren't opposites, but two sides of the same principle: short, strong stimuli that the body responds to with adaptation. Many guests from Herbrechtingen combine both – sauna for relaxation, a cryo session for recovery, immunity and metabolism.

Is Cryotherapy (Cryo) at -110 °C dangerous?

The dry cryo cold only cools the outermost layer of skin, not the body's core. With protection for ears, hands and feet and expert guidance, Cryotherapy (Cryo) is well tolerated – except in certain pre-existing conditions.

What do I need to bring from Herbrechtingen?

Swimwear – we provide protection for ears, hands, feet and mouth. Please come into the chamber dry, without creams or jewellery; we'll explain the details calmly before your first session.

Is Cryotherapy (Cryo) worth it in summer for guests from Herbrechtingen?

Yes. The cryo chamber works with dry cold, regardless of the weather in Herbrechtingen. Many guests actually find the session especially refreshing and sleep-promoting on hot days.
