NWBRR has a New Sponsor

I would like to welcome a long time friend of the club, former president, and now new sponsor with her business that can make you feel absolutely recovered from whatever you put your body through in training, from injury, or race ready in preparation for your next event. Ilene Sonin is owner of Mobile CryoSuite and here is a brief introduction.

What is Whole Body Cryotherapy? First off, let’s discuss cryotherapy (or as some call it… “Cryo Therapy”/ “Cryogenic Therapy”) in and of itself first before we dive into the “whole body” aspect of it. Cryotherapy, as defined by the ever-reliable Merriam-Webster dictionary, means “the therapeutic use of cold.” Based off of this definition Cryotherapy, in the simplest of terms, is essentially, COLD THERAPY.

Let’s back up for a second, what is the purpose of cold therapy? Studies have shown that exposing the body to sub-zero temperatures, aka cold therapy, can help reduce inflammation, relieve muscles soreness, improve energy, boost endorphins, and much, much more. Nice!Now to discuss Whole Body Cryotherapy. Whole Body Cryotherapy deals with exposing the WHOLE BODY to cold temperatures… cold as in -202ºF! Wowza, that’s cold. Now how does one expose their entire body to frigid temps? Well you could stand out in the middle of Antarctica while barely wearing anything but that doesn’t sound very fun, or safe; OR you could hop on into an Impact Cryotherapy Cryosauna for a quick 3-minute Whole Body Cryotherapy session!

Ilene would like to give you more information on the treatments and is also available to book appointments. Her contact is cell# 954-415-1000 or ilene@mobilecryosuite.com. Of course there are club discounts for the service which Ilene will share. She has also offered to come out if we can get a group of 10 or more who would like to experience a sample treatment (normally $50 but only $40 to club members for the first time).

Contact me if you would like to be part of the group and we will coordinate dates and times.

Until next time, have a great week.
