How Does Whole Body Cryotherapy Work?
Whole body cryotherapy exposes your skin to dry, cold air as low as −195°C for just two to three minutes. The rapid cold triggers vasoconstriction — your blood vessels narrow and blood concentrates around your core. When you step out and warm up, that oxygen- and nutrient-rich blood floods back through your tissues, which is what supports reduced inflammation, faster recovery and the energising, mood-lifting effect most York Millsclients notice right away. Your head stays above the chamber the whole time, so you never breathe the cold vapour.
Step In
Enter our medical-grade cryosauna in minimal clothing with protective gloves, socks and slippers provided at our North York centre.
2–3 Minutes of Cold
Dry cold at −195°C surrounds your body, triggering vasoconstriction and your natural anti-inflammatory response.
Recover & Recharge
As you warm up, circulation rebounds and you leave feeling refreshed — no downtime, ready to get on with your day.
What Are the Benefits for York Mills Residents?
York Mills clients come to us for a range of goals. The most consistently reported benefits of whole body cryotherapy are:
- Muscle recovery: Ease post-training soreness and DOMS so you can train again sooner.
- Natural pain relief: A drug-free option for managing joint pain, arthritis and chronic aches.
- Reduced inflammation: A whole-body anti-inflammatory response after each short session.
- Energy & mood: A reliable lift in alertness and mood from the cold-triggered endorphin release.
- Better sleep: Many clients report deeper, more restful sleep on session days.
- Skin & recovery add-ons: Pair with a cryofacial or localized cryotherapy for targeted goals.
What Should York Mills First-Timers Expect?
Your first visit from York Mills starts with a short consultation — we review your goals and any health considerations, then walk you through the session step by step. The cold itself lasts only two to three minutes and feels brisk and dry rather than the shock of an ice bath. There is no recovery period afterward, so most clients head straight back to work, the gym or errands. First-time clients pay just $40, which includes that consultation, and packages never expire — so once you know cryotherapy works for you, it is easy to keep a regular routine when the studio is only minutes from York Mills.

Who Runs the Studio York Mills Clients Drive To
Before trusting any studio with your health, it is fair to ask who runs it. For York Mills residents weighing up the drive, here is who you will meet and how the studio is run.
Family-owned since 2013
Cryotherapy Toronto, legally Cryotherapy Health and Wellness Inc., is family-owned and independently operated. Founder Roman Gersh, our lead cryotherapy specialist, opened the studio in 2013, making it one of Ontario's first dedicated cryotherapy centres. You can read more about Roman or about our story.
Who we work with
Across more than 15,000 sessions, our client list has been broad:
- MMA fighters and hockey players managing heavy training loads
- Runners building up their weekly distance
- Office workers with back pain
- Retirees looking for drug-free joint relief
We have been featured on CTV's The Social and in Toronto media, and NBA player Jimmy Butler has visited. Day to day, though, the studio serves people with everyday goals: easing a sore back, recovering from training or simply feeling more energised.
How every session runs
- A free one-on-one consultation on your first visit, so plan about 30 minutes
- A trained technician present for every whole body session
- A three-minute cap, with your head above the cabin so you never breathe the vapour
- A personalised plan, with the technician recommending how often to return
What we offer under one roof
Whole body cryotherapy, localized cryotherapy for a single sore zone, and cryofacials are our core services. Red light therapy and NormaTec compression are available as add-ons for clients who want a longer recovery visit. Everything happens in the same supervised studio, so you can combine treatments in one trip.
