HOW THERMAL CONTRAST WORKS

The science of contrast.

CryoWave isn't cold therapy alone. The applicator alternates controlled warming and cooling over a targeted area. Heat and cold create different local vascular responses, producing the contrast experience at the center of CryoWave Recovery.

01

Warming Phase

Circulation

Controlled warmth encourages local blood flow while helping tight, overworked muscles begin to relax.

02

Cooling Phase

Targeted Comfort

Localized cooling can temporarily reduce sensations of soreness and discomfort in the treated area.

03

Contrast Recovery

Move + Recover

Alternating warmth and cooling creates a targeted contrast experience designed to complement physical recovery.

LOCALIZED VS WHOLE-BODY RECOVERY

Localized treatment.
Whole-body cold.

CryoWave

  • Localized application
  • Alternating heat + cold
  • Focuses on one specific area
  • Provider-guided session
  • Massage-like handheld application

Cold Plunge

  • Whole-body immersion
  • Cold exposure only
  • Broad recovery experience
  • Immersion following the team’s guidance
  • Full-body cold stimulus

Neither has to replace the other. CryoWave is the more targeted choice when one specific area needs attention, while cold plunge provides a whole-body cold exposure experience.

CRYOWAVE RECOVERY FAQ

Before you book.

How much is a session, and how long should I allow?

Shoulders, arms, thighs, glutes and abdomen are $310 per session; back is $340. Check the appointment duration for your selected area in online booking, or call 330.665.2555 before reserving.

Will one session be enough?

Responses vary, and any improvement may be temporary. Discuss how the area feels after treatment before deciding on another visit. New or persistent pain should be assessed by your healthcare provider.

What is CryoWave thermal shock therapy?

CryoWave is a localized thermal contrast system that alternates controlled warming and cooling over a targeted area. At RE·MEDĒ, it is used as a non-invasive recovery experience for areas that feel sore, tight or overworked.

How is CryoWave different from cryotherapy?

Traditional cryotherapy focuses primarily on cold exposure. CryoWave alternates controlled heat and cold and is applied directly to one specific area.

Is CryoWave thermal shock therapy the same as Cryo T-Shock?

CryoWave and Cryo T-Shock are different branded systems that use a similar thermal contrast concept: controlled cycles of heat and cold applied to a targeted area. The equipment, protocols, temperature ranges, and treatment programming can differ, but both use alternating temperatures as part of a localized recovery experience.

Is CryoWave the same as a cold plunge?

No. A cold plunge immerses much of the body in cold water. CryoWave is a provider-guided localized treatment that moves between warming and cooling over a targeted area.

What areas can be treated with CryoWave?

Online options are shoulders, back, arms, thighs, glutes and abdomen. For another area or more than one area, call 330.665.2555 before booking.

Can I use CryoWave after a workout?

CryoWave can be incorporated into a post-activity recovery routine when specific muscle groups feel tired, tight or overworked after running, cycling, strength training or other strenuous activity.

What does CryoWave feel like?

You will feel the handheld applicator move over the target area while the temperature transitions between controlled warmth and cooling.

Is there downtime after CryoWave?

CryoWave is non-invasive and does not require a formal recovery period. Most clients can continue with their normal day after the session.

How often should I book CryoWave Recovery?

Frequency depends on your activity level, recovery goals and the area being addressed. Your RE·MEDĒ provider can recommend an appropriate schedule.

Can CryoWave be combined with other RE·MEDĒ services?

Yes. Depending on your goals, CryoWave may be paired with services such as Normatec compression, infrared sauna, cold plunge or PEMF as part of a broader recovery routine.

Who should not use CryoWave?

Temperature-based treatments are not appropriate for everyone. Tell our team about pregnancy, circulation concerns, temperature sensitivity, recent procedures, injuries or other health conditions before treatment. When appropriate, consult your healthcare provider before booking.
