Blue Light Cryotherapy

Body Contouring

Body Contouring with Slimming and Toning Cryo T-shock appointments last approximately 25-55 minutes. These treatments are non-invasive and induce lipolysis, or the breaking down of fat cells, while reducing body fat without damaging other tissues. Cryo T-shock will also help reduce the appearance of crepey or loose skin, cellulite, fine lines, and wrinkles by stimulating collagen and elastin production and tightening muscles.

Facial Treatments

The T-Shock facial coupling device provides precise treatments to reduce the appearance of fine lines while producing firmer, tighter skin. The shock of alternating cold and hot therapy triggers deep layers of collagen back into production. Clients typically see visible results after a single facial session, though results are even more profound after 4-8 sessions. Cryo T-shock facials can also help to restore radiance, smooth inflammation, and minimize facial pores. Any facial service will improve the overall condition of the skin by increasing the oxygen and nutrient supply to the cells.

Muscle Recovery

Localized Cryo T-shock reduces inflammation, promotes rapid healing and minimizes pain. Unlike Cryotherapy Chambers, localized services provide direct cryolipolysis to the very specific area which accelerates healing to get you back to full mobility as soon as possible. Cryotherapy is commonly used to relieve pain, particularly that of inflammatory diseases, injuries, and overuse. Cooling the body to accelerate recovery decreases muscle damage and inflammation markers.

Wood Therapy

Wood Therapy is a non-intrusive body-contouring technique that uses specially shaped wooden pieces, such as rollers and suction cups, to massage the target areas in an attempt to break down localized pockets of fat and cellulite so that they can be eliminated through the lymphatic system. It also stimulates blood circulation and cellular turnover rate in the massaged areas to tone and contribute to skin tightening. This service can be added to your cryo t-shock appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does cryo t-shock feel?

Cryo T-shock procedures are certainly chilly but otherwise painless. Some clients will experience a period of temporary bloating following their appointment, and it’s common to expect some numbness in the treated area. Alternating temperatures used during Slimming and Fat Loss treatments create a circulation to the blood flow in order to drain water weight through the lymphatic system. This feeling can last up to 48 hours post treatment though is not to be expected on all clients. Toning and facial clients experience little to any discomfort during their appointment aside from toning as results can be immediate.

How Quickly Will I See Results?

Results after one Slimming or Toning treatment to a large area are generally visible within a week following the first session. However, it should be noted that the best results appear anywhere from 15 to 45-days after the third or fourth treatment and extend for several months after the sessions are complete. Results may take longer to appear for those with a thicker layer of fat.

How Long Do The Results Last?

Depending on the client’s body type, lifestyle, health and diet; results will last several months to years. For Slimming and Toning treatments, ongoing maintenance may be recommended.

Who should consider Cryo T-shock treatments?

Anyone who is looking to relieve pain, reduce cellulite, tighten saggy skin or treat stubborn areas of fat.

Who should not undergo Cyro T-shock treatments?

Anyone with the following conditions should not undergo this treatment: kidney disease or dialysis, pregnancy, severe diabetes, undergoing chemotherapy, varicose veins. Clients who have recently had Botox or fillers must wait at least three weeks after receiving injections.

Before your treatment:

• Stay properly hydrated before and after your appointments. Consuming at least a half gallon of water is recommended for up to three days after your treatment. This habit is important, as water will flush fat cells and increase elimination through the lymphatic system.
• Do your best to avoid eating heavy meals at least one hour before and after your treatment.
  
• Avoid drinking alcohol the day before any cryotherapy service. Alcohol is high in kilojoules and stops your body from burning fat.
  

After your Treatment:

Clients are strongly encouraged to kick-start the process of fat elimination through the lymphatic drainage within four hours after their Slimming and Toning treatments. A vigorous workout, massage or compression will accelerate cryotherapy benefits and can help the body to “de-bloat”. Although it is not required, clients who avoid this important recommendation may negate the benefits of their service. Before scheduling your treatments, make sure to have time for one of these activities shortly after:

• 45-minute cardio workout
• 15-minute wood therapy session
• 10-minute vibration plate session
• Massage or compression on the treated area
• 30-minute sauna session

Frequency of Treatments:

Sliming treatments can be performed once every 10-21 days whereas most Toning treatments can be performed every 3-5 days. Maintenance is recommended every 3-6 months following the completion of your initial treatment plan.

Side Effects:

There are generally no side effects apart from the increase of waste by elimination through the lymphatic drainage. Localized redness or bloating will disappear after a few hours but can last up to two days. In rare cases, pain from the cold temperatures may occur but will dissipate within two to three hours.
