Non-invasive, gentle, yet effective, cryotherapy can help ease numerous chronic health conditions, as well as disorders such as anxiety and depression.
Its positive effects have been scientifically proven in three main areas; health and prevention; sport and fitness; and anti-ageing and beauty, making it ideal as a service for customers in the spa and wellness sector.
Cryotherapy exploits the difference in temperature between the user and the cryo chamber to cool the body and stimulate important body functions.
During a session – which typically lasts just three to four minutes – cooling happens extremely quickly, activating thermoreceptors in the body and causing blood vessels to contract.
After leaving the chamber, blood vessels dilate, the blood flows back and a rush of beneficial endorphins is released.
Backed by science Art of Cryo is a market leader in whole-body cryotherapy solutions and offers evidence-based products underpinned by 30 years’ experience in the field.
Its elegant chambers for whole body cryotherapy come in three lines: Single Vaultz, Vario Vaultz and Unical Vaultz.
All the high-performance chambers are powered by electricity and made to the highest quality standards, making them both efficient and eco-friendly.
Each is designed and built with advanced technology, so it provides even temperature distribution to ensure the delivery of first-class treatments.
Rainer Bolsinger, Art of Cryo chief sales and marketing officer, says the brand’s solutions offer an exciting opportunity for spas: “The initial investment can be quickly repaid, due to the fact it’s possible to deliver a huge number of treatments in a short time and at an extremely low marginal cost,” he explains. “Depending on the model, operators can deliver up to 150 treatments per day.”
Art of Cryo is part of industrial group L&R Kältetechnik – refrigeration tech specialists with a 30-year pedigree.

Raising the bar
Delivering holistic, sustainable health and wellbeing experiences has always been central to the philosophy of the Me Sense Spa at Austria’s five-star Alpenresort Schwarz.
The spa offering has recently been enriched and elevated by the introduction of cryogenic chambers in the form of Art of Cryo’s new high-performance Vaultz V1 Lux.
Thanks to the newly-installed Art of Cryo technology, The Alpenresort Schwarz is one of the first spas in Europe to offer sophisticated cryotherapy treatment technology to its guests.
