Therapy Cryo Salon, Lake Forest

You step into the sleek round chamber, head peeking over the top. Soon you're hit with a burst of extreme cold, and almost as quickly you begin to feel the effects. This is cryotherapy, the specialty of Therapy Cryo Salon and an emerging favorite of professional athletes and others on the cutting edge of recovery technology. The session doesn't last long, but the potential benefits are many, including joint pain relief, skin tightening, and enhanced healing after surgery.

The salon also has a hyperbaric oxygen-therapy chamber, which floods bodies with pure oxygen. The treatment is designed to promote healing and speed up recovery.
