Drive495, a specialized training facility located in New York City, is now offering the world’s most technologically advanced cryotherapy system from Impact Cryotherapy. Atlanta-based Impact Cryotherapy is the U.S. leader in designing and manufacturing whole body cryotherapy systems.

“Our job at Drive495 is to add value to everyone’s lifestyle; to give everyone an added edge in not only sport, but life,” said Don Saladino, a nationally recognized fitness expert who is the owner of Drive495. “After using cryotherapy, my recovery improved drastically, my energy went through the roof and my sleep improved. I felt like I could repeat activities day in and day out with much more ease. It’s a no-brainer that collaborating with Impact Cryotherapy is the next step to taking Drive495 to the next level.”

Impact Cryotherapy has become one of the fastest growing whole body cryotherapy companies in the world through a combination of product innovation and excellence combined with the growing popularity of whole body cryotherapy. Impact Cryotherapy systems are used nationally and internationally by a wide range of professional and university sports teams, resorts and spas, training centers and wellness entrepreneurs.

“We are delighted to partner with Drive495 in bringing Impact Cryotherapy to New York City,” said Richard E.

Whole body cryotherapy was introduced in Japan during the 1970s to treat rheumatoid arthritis, and its use quickly spread and expanded throughout Europe. The user stands on an adjustable platform inside the chamber so his/her head remains outside the chamber. The chamber is filled with nitrogen vapor, which drops the temperature to a range of (minus) -120°C to -140°C and temporarily lowers the temperature of the skin’s top layer. The treatment lasts a maximum of three minutes before the Impact Cryotherapy unit automatically turns off.

Impact Cryotherapy Focuses on Safety Aspects of Cryotherapy

The recent event of a death in a cryotherapy facility is tragic and unfortunate. But the event serves an important reminder to the manufacturers, distributors and operators of cryotherapy equipment that safety is paramount, according to Impact Cryotherapy. Atlanta-based Impact Cryotherapy is the U.S. leader in designing and manufacturing whole body cryotherapy systems, offering the most technologically advanced unit available worldwide. The incident did not occur in an Impact Cryotherapy unit.

“Several thousand cryotherapy sessions are safely conducted every week using Impact Cryotherapy equipment by operators trained by Impact staff. Whole body cryotherapy, when conducted properly, is a safe and enjoyable experience,” said Richard E. Otto, Impact Cryotherapy Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder.

Impact Cryotherapy is setting new standards for the industry emerging around whole body cryotherapy. Impact is a U.S. corporation with its own staff of installation and training personnel who follow standardized procedures for the safe operation of its cryotherapy systems.

“Impact Cryotherapy equipment is manufactured in the U.S., which means the company has end-to-end control of the engineering, design, manufacturing process, quality assurance, installation, training and servicing,” said Otto. “Prior to the formation of Impact Cryotherapy, almost all cryotherapy product offerings available in the U.S. were imported from manufacturers in Poland or the Ukraine. They have no U.S. corporate operations, and the offerings are sold through distributors and resellers.”

Impact Cryotherapy has invested in comprehensive product documentation and training programs. Company employees spend a minimum of one-and-a-half days onsite during installation conducting interactive training sessions, and also provide ongoing training for customers’ new employees. Impact Cryotherapy products are serviced by a team of Impact professionals. All service professionals are factory trained with Impact equipment, and all service requests are completed with original manufacturer parts. The company’s service teams are available 24/7/365.

“The cryotherapy industry desperately needed modernization, and we continue to set the bar higher with each innovation we introduce. We will sell more than 120 units during 2015, with a number of those units purchased as replacements for other companies’ equipment,” said Otto. “Our customers appreciate our commitment to quality, safety and innovative design, as well as the dedication to service provided by a U.S.-based company to support their needs.”

Impact Cryotherapy’s safety program includes:

  • Redundant safety features, including a door that is easy to open from the inside by the user
  • Three-minute maximum run time with automatic turn-off
  • UL certified electrical system
  • Manufactured in the U.S. in ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified facilities
  • Trained teams of Impact employees who conduct training and perform installation
  • Dedicated service teams available 24/7/365
  • Comprehensive product documentation and training programs
  • Standardized training procedures and protocols

Whole body cryotherapy was introduced in Japan during the 1970s to treat rheumatoid arthritis, and its use quickly spread and expanded throughout Europe in the following years. The user stands on an adjustable platform inside the chamber so his/her head remains outside the chamber. The chamber is filled with nitrogen vapor, which drops the temperature to a range of (minus) -​120°C to -140°C and temporarily lowers the temperature of the skin’s top layer.

Wake Forest Selects Impact Cryotherapy for Leading Edge Technology

Impact Cryotherapy announced today that the Wake Forest men’s basketball program has added its state-of-the-art whole body cryotherapy chamber to aid players’ performance and recovery. Atlanta-based Impact Cryotherapy is a national leader in designing and manufacturing whole body cryotherapy systems.

“The state-of-the-art Impact Cryotherapy unit is a great addition to our program,” said Ryan Horn, Wake Forest Director of Sports Performance for Men’s Basketball. “As a staff, we are constantly striving to find the most efficient and effective ways to improve our student-athletes’ recovery and performance.”

Cryotherapy is used around the world to maintain fitness and increase energy. Whole body cryotherapy helps athletes prepare for competition, recover faster from workouts and train harder. “In the highly competitive ACC, we are always looking for an edge,” said Wake Forest head coach Danny Manning. “With the cryotherapy chamber, we are able to make sure our athletes are constantly performing at their maximum potential.”

The athlete stands on an adjustable platform inside the chamber, so his head remains outside the chamber at all times. The chamber is filled with nitrogen vapor, which drops the temperature to a range of (minus) -​120°C to -140°C and temporarily lowers the temperature of the skin’s top layer. The treatment lasts a maximum of three minutes. Once out of the chamber, the body immediately reheats.

“We commend Wake Forest for being at the forefront of a global movement that incorporates whole body cryotherapy into the training and recovery regimen for athletes,” said Richard E. Otto, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Impact Cryotherapy. “Whether it’s a weekend warrior or a top-level professional athlete, cryotherapy can play an important role in maintaining and improving fitness levels.”

Extreme cold has been used to treat inflammation for centuries. Cryotherapy was used to treat rheumatoid arthritis in Japan beginning in the 1970s and that procedure spread to Europe, which developed the whole body cryotherapy systems in use today. Impact Cryotherapy is an American-designed and American-manufactured system.

“The ACC is one of the best basketball conferences in the country, and every game is a dog fight,” said Horn. “When you combine that with the travel, practice and academic demands being placed on today’s student-athletes, the need for recovery is paramount. With this technology we are able to perform the same amount of treatments in a third of the time when compared to traditional ice baths. As a program, we are always looking for a competitive edge. We want to be the most progressive and technologically advanced collegiate basketball program in the country. Cryotherapy is another step towards achieving that goal.”

University of Georgia Athletic Association Gives Student Athletes an Advantage with Impact Cryotherapy

The University of Georgia Athletic Association will give its student-athletes a competitive advantage by offering access to a new state-of-the-art whole body cryotherapy chamber from Atlanta-based Impact Cryotherapy, a national leader in designing and manufacturing whole body cryotherapy systems.

Cryotherapy is used worldwide by athletes and others to maintain fitness and increase energy. Whole body cryotherapy helps to prepare for competition, recover faster from workouts and train harder.

Ron Courson, Senior Associate Athletic Director for Sports Medicine, said “Our student-athletes in all sports train extremely hard, and recovery is a critical part of our overall program. Whole body cooling is new technology which provides an outstanding recovery option. We are excited about the capabilities with this new technology for our student-athletes, not only just with recovery but with treatment and rehabilitation as well.”

The athlete stands inside the chamber during treatment on an adjustable platform, which ensures their head remains outside the chamber. The Impact Cryotherapy chamber is filled with nitrogen vapor, which drops the temperature to a range of (minus) -​120°C to -140°C and temporarily lowers the temperature of the skin’s top layer. This treatment lasts a maximum of three minutes. Once out of the chamber, the body immediately reheats.

“For decades, ice baths have been the recovery therapy of choice for collegiate and professional athletes,” said Richard E. Otto, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Impact Cryotherapy. “Rather than endure 20 minutes in a tub of ice water, they can spend three minutes in our whole body cryotherapy chamber to achieve better, faster results. Athletes love it!”

Extreme cold has been used to treat inflammation for centuries; that’s the idea behind immersing the body in an ice bath. In the 1970s in Japan, cryotherapy treatments were used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, and that spread to Europe, which developed the whole body cryotherapy systems in use today. Impact Cryotherapy’s American-designed and American-manufactured system has quickly become the system of choice for professional athletic teams, including numerous recent installations in the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL.

The Miami Marlins have added a state-of-the-art whole body cryotherapy chamber to their training and recovery options for players. The unit from Atlanta-based Impact Cryotherapy is the leading American-designed and American-manufactured cryotherapy system.

Cryotherapy is used worldwide by athletes and others to optimize their bodies, maintain fitness and increase energy.

“Baseball players have an exceptionally tough season, often with daily demands on their bodies,” said Richard E. Otto, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Impact Cryotherapy. “The ability to recover quicker and play harder gives a player, and his team, an extraordinary advantage.”

The athlete stands inside the patent-pending, octagonal-shaped chamber during treatment on an adjustable platform, which ensures their head remains outside the chamber. The Impact Cryotherapy chamber is filled with nitrogen vapor, which drops the temperature to a range of (minus) -​120°C to -140°C and temporarily lowers the temperature of the skin’s top layer.

Select Cryotherapy Brings First Cryotherapy Treatment Options to Nashville

Whole Body Cryotherapy Used for Health and Wellness, Athletic Recovery


Select Cryotherapy is bringing the hottest trend to Nashville, opening two whole body cryotherapy centers plus a mobile unit on June 8, 2015. Whole body cryotherapy is a three-minute treatment inside a sub-zero degree chamber that leaves users feeling revitalized, helps relieve pain and speeds recovery for athletes.

During the grand opening on June 8-13, which the company has dubbed “Nashville CryoWeek,” Select Cryotherapy will be offering deeply discounted sessions for $19, plus a free session with purchase of a package. Select Cryotherapy is located at 3202 Belmont Boulevard, Nashville 37212 (615.828.9737), and is open from 8 AM to 6 PM. A satellite location is just off I-65 at Highway 96 in Franklin at Schroder Chiropractic, 1113 Murfreesboro Road, #410, 37064.

Select Cryotherapy also has a mobile unit designed for use by groups and at special events. The mobile unit will be at Green Hills Family YMCA June 8-9, providing treatments from 8 AM to 6 PM. The mobile cryotherapy chamber will also be at the 7th Annual Nashville Sports Council Golf Tournament on June 25.

“We find that once people have tried whole body cryotherapy, they recognize the health and wellness benefits and enjoy feeling refreshed and invigorated,” explains John Hartong, CEO of Select Cryotherapy. “A lot of people end up getting cryotherapy treatments on a weekly or biweekly basis because it’s so fast, easy and effective.”

Cold therapy has been used for thousands of years throughout the world and is a well-accepted method for treating inflammation and injury. It is a safe, proven method to improve whole body health and wellness.

Cryotherapy allows athletes to train harder and recover faster, but is much more comfortable than immersing the body in ice water. Amateur athletes and weekend warriors, as well as pros, have adopted cryotherapy to reduce pain and inflammation caused by strenuous exercise.

Therapists and practitioners can recommend whole body cryotherapy as an adjunct to other types of treatments for a variety of symptoms and conditions, ranging from chronic pain to depression. With the mobile unit, therapists can arrange for onsite treatment days.

The whole body cryotherapy experience begins with stripping down to underwear, jogging or compression shorts. Women may also wear a bra, sports bra or bikini top. The user steps into the state-of-the-art Select Cryotherapy chamber, which fills with nitrogen vapor. The head remains outside the chamber, which drops in temperature to a range of minus 140 to 170 degrees Celsius.

“During those three minutes in the chamber, the skin sends signals to the brain which stimulates physical reactions and activates naturally occurring healing resources,” said Bert Simmons, COO of Select Cryotherapy. “Once you step out, the body immediately reheats, but the effects remain. The one thing we hear from virtually everyone who has tried the treatment is how energized they feel. An added benefit for most users is that the treatment increases metabolism and burns calories.”

The Select Cryotherapy units were made in the U.S.A. in an ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified facility, and represent the next generation of cryotherapy, which has traditionally been manufactured and used in Europe. The Select Cryotherapy system combines leading-edge technology with innovative design to deliver unmatched safety, comfort and reliability.

About Select Cryotherapy
Select Cryotherapy offers state-of-the-art whole body cryotherapy treatments through its two locations and mobile unit. The mobile unit is available for events as well as ongoing partner programs. The company is headquartered in Nashville with a satellite location in Franklin. Cryotherapy promotes health and well-being, allows faster recovery time, supports chronic pain relief, delivers an energy boost, increases metabolism and burns calories.
