whole body cryostimulation

In this research project will be performed 15 treatments in cryogenic chamber (1 once a day, every day, with a break on Saturdays and Sundays). Cryostimulation will be conducted in a cryochamber located in the Małopolska Cryotherapy Centre in Kraków, Poland (Polish: Małopolskie Centrum Krioterapii). The whole body cryostimulation (WBC) exposure will be administered in a special temperature-controlled unit which consists of two rooms (-60° and -120°C).
