The cryosauna (also known as a cryocabin, cryochamber or cryopod, or more generally as a cryogenic device) is an opposite of a usual sauna, with the temperatures ranging from 120 to 170. The session feels more comfortable than bathing in cold water, because the air is poor conductor, especially when it is dry. Another advantage of a cryocabin is that the patient, lifted up with the movable floor, is immersed in the cold gas only up to his shoulders. Thus he can feel more comfortable due to unimpared breathing and to uninterrupted contact with the attending personnel.
