Cryotherapy in Pretoria: what you should know
Cryotherapy works through a short, very intense cold stimulus on the skin receptors. Systems listed in Pretoria go down to -85 °C — what matters is less the extreme value than the duration and the regularity.
When choosing in Pretoria, pay attention to the system type: whole-body chambers with a pre-chamber are considered gentler on circulation than partial-body cabins where the head stays outside.
