Also, athletes have been using cryotherapy for decades. In the form of ice bath. I see that the chambers would be easier to use because you don't have to ease yourself into one.
Football players used to not wear gloves and facemasks, so what?

LeBron James (who uses these chambers) has an 82 game schedule, he'll be playing basketball from now until June, if their team makes it back to the Finals. He doesn't have time for ice baths, in between games and practices.

Same with pro soccer players who go from league play to cup play to tournament play to international play. And pretty much every other athlete.

It's a more efficient way to do what professional athletes need.

RIH to this young lady.

Think of cryo being a nap that rejuvenates back to full strength. Whereas, an ice bath would be a good nights rest. That is one reason why cryo trumps ice baths for pro athletes.
3 min vs 30 min is not worth $40 to me.

But I see the advantage there.
