What is it?

Trainers have known for years how to manage elite athletes through I.C.E. -- Immobilization. Cooling. Elevation.

The intense, repetitive training and high level competition these athletes pursue often produce chronic and acute injuries making the effects of I.C.E. well known.

In an effort to intensify training even further, while shortening recovery time, some elite athletes are taking that concept to the next level -- whole body cryotherapy.
