The process for guests from Pfronten

How it works!

Many first-time guests from Pfronten underestimate how uncomplicated a session is. No long preparation, no wet towel, no warm-up phase: you go in dry and come out dry. Here's what the process looks like in detail.

Arrival & briefing

Arrive relaxed

We calmly explain the process and answer all your questions before your first session.

Getting ready

Change & get ready

Swimwear, hat, gloves, socks and a face mask – your skin stays dry and free of creams.

3 minutes at -110 °C

Into the cold

Dry cold down to -110 °C, evenly distributed by our eddy-current cooling (Cyclon).

Step out & feel it

Done. Now feel it.

Warmth, tingling, freshness: many feel the effect right after the very first session.

Chamber temperature

-110 °C

Duration

03:00 MIN

Good to know

Session lasting 3 minutes of dry cold at -110°C.

The difference: whole-body cryotherapy with eddy-current cooling (Cyclon) that circulates the cold air evenly around the body.

The cold penetrates about 1mm into the skin and stimulates the nerve endings – including the vagus nerve, which runs along the cervical spine, is positively stimulated by the cold.

The stimulus on the skin travels to the brain and can trigger the positive effects.

Dry cold in general triggers the release of adrenaline and the happiness hormone dopamine, as well as corticoids, for regeneration.

Blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and triglycerides can gradually normalize.

Even after the very first session you feel better, more at ease – a true mood booster. Already inside the cold chamber you can sense something happening in your body, and afterwards you feel reborn – an indescribable tingling on the skin, a feeling of warmth and a wonderful sense of relaxation follow.

You are professionally supervised throughout the session: we discuss your health situation beforehand, explain the process and stay in visual and verbal contact. We recommend 2–3 sessions per week.

Focus: Stress & Sleep

Winding down after work – cold therapy for guests from Pfronten

Constant stress keeps the body on high alert. The cold chamber radically interrupts that pattern: three minutes at -110 °C demand full attention, followed by a deep relaxation that many describe as a "reset". The release of endorphins noticeably lifts mood, while many guests from Pfronten report calmer, deeper sleep the night after. Coming from work in Pfronten, plan on about an hour in total for travel, the session and the rest period afterwards – it's around 60 minutes each way.

For guests from Pfronten

What the cold treatment can do

Whole-body cryotherapy doesn't work on a single spot but on the whole organism. Guests from Pfronten therefore come with very different goals – from post-sport recovery to skin and sleep.

With 60 minutes' drive from Pfronten, allow a small buffer – stepping into the chamber in a rush brings less benefit.

First-time bookers from Pfronten receive a short checklist by message beforehand. Compared with local cold applications, whole-body cold acts on the entire organism – something guests from Ostallgäu district often underestimate. After the holidays many from Pfronten use the chamber as a restart for their own rhythm.

Please note: we cannot promise any cure – every body responds differently to cold therapy. Results also depend on regular sessions of at least 2–3 times a week over a longer period.

Your visit

How a visit at Kempterstraße runs

We schedule every appointment so that you can arrive calmly. On a first visit we take extra time for a short conversation, answer open questions and show you the chamber before you step in. You then decide whether to use the full three minutes.

During the session one of us stays in visual contact and talks to you through the intercom. Afterwards we recommend movement – a few minutes on the bike or a short walk is enough to get your circulation going again.

  • Arriving

    About ten minutes early – changing room, short briefing, questions answered.

  • In the chamber

    Up to three minutes, stoppable at any time, always supervised.

  • Afterwards

    Movement, a warm drink and a short chat about how it felt.

Practical tips for Pfronten

How to plan your sessions

Rhythm for Pfronten

Bundling trips is worthwhile from Pfronten: many guests combine the session with shopping, a doctor's appointment or training in Memmingen. That way, the 72 km trip becomes not an extra errand but a fixed part of the weekly rhythm.

Summer or winter?

Whether it's a heatwave or snowfall in Ostallgäu district: the chamber is a constant -110 °C. Especially on hot summer days, guests from Pfronten find the three minutes particularly pleasant.

Cold Chamber, ice bath or sauna?

There are lakes, streams and, in winter, plenty of cold around Pfronten – yet the chamber is something different. Cold water cools the body's core and needs a long time to get used to. The dry cold at -110 °C works within three minutes through the skin's receptors, without the core cooling down. The stimulus is stronger, and the strain on circulation is shorter and more controlled.

Focus: Sport & Recovery

Recover faster – the cold chamber for athletes from Pfronten

Anyone in Pfronten who plays football or handball, cycles, runs or trains with weights knows the problem: there's often too little time for real recovery between two sessions. Three minutes at -110 °C act like a turbo boost for recovery: the extreme dry cold constricts blood vessels, reduces signal transmission in the pain fibres and slows inflammatory processes after intense exertion. Once you step out, the vessels widen again and oxygen-rich blood floods the worked muscles. Many active people from Ostallgäu district schedule the session straight after training or the day after competing – with around 60 minutes' drive from Pfronten, that fits easily into a weekly routine.

Guests from Pfronten mainly report two effects: a clear head in the evening and calmer sleep the following night.

Those coming from Pfronten have often already tried physiotherapy or sauna and are looking for an extra stimulus. From Pfronten we often hear that muscle soreness is far milder the next day. The drive from Pfronten takes about 60 minutes without traffic.

  • Less muscle soreness after tough sessions
  • Shorter breaks between two training sessions
  • Support for irritation in tendons and joints
  • A fresh feeling before competition days
