Focus: Work & Cryo Recovery

Both leave their mark on muscles and joints. Cryotherapy provides a short, highly effective recovery impulse that fits easily into your evening. From Illerrieden it's only around 36 minutes – including changing and the cryo session, you're done in about 30 minutes.

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 Illerrieden

What the cold treatment can do

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

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

Booking is online around the clock – handy for shift workers from Illerrieden. After the holidays many from Illerrieden use the chamber as a restart for their own rhythm. Unlike a cryo sauna, here the whole body including the head is in the cold – an argument for guests from Illerrieden.

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 Illerrieden

How it works!

Before you set off from Illerrieden, 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: Metabolism through the Cryo Stimulus

A metabolic boost through Cryotherapy in Illerrieden

During a cryo session, the body has to fight against -110 °C – and that takes energy. For guests from Illerrieden, Cryotherapy is therefore often part of a bigger plan involving exercise, diet and recovery. The cold stimulus activates brown fat tissue, which converts energy directly into heat, and gives circulation a noticeable boost. A single cryo session doesn't replace a calorie deficit, but 2 to 3 sessions a week over several weeks set off a metabolic impulse that many experience as more energy and fewer cravings. From Alb-Donau-Kreis, the 10-session or 10-session package is the most economical option.

Coming after work from Illerrieden, plan realistically around 102 minutes for travel, session and rest.

In Illerrieden many guests work in trades and care – jobs where the back works every day. From Illerrieden we often hear that muscle soreness is far milder the next day. From Illerrieden the quickest route runs über die Illertalstraße towards Memmingen.

  • Increased energy expenditure after the cryo session
  • Firmer skin through improved circulation
  • More motivation for sport and exercise
  • Ideal as part of a change in diet

Practical tips for Illerrieden

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Illerrieden

For a start from Illerrieden, 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?

In winter, Cryotherapy is mainly immune and mood training for guests from Illerrieden, while in summer it's a recovery tool after cycling, running and hiking trips. The cold impulse itself stays identical all year round: -110 °C, dry, three minutes.

Cryotherapy (Cryo), ice bath or sauna?

There are lakes, streams and, in winter, plenty of cold around Illerrieden – 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.
