Whole body cryotherapy in the e°CABIN at Pragma Health
01 · How it works

Your body has a reset button. This is it.

Whole body cryotherapy briefly exposes your body to extreme cold, down to −140°C. That sounds intense, but it lasts three minutes and feels surprisingly bearable to most people. Your body responds by protecting and repairing itself: blood vessels contract, then blood flows back with force. Pain signals are dampened. The nervous system switches gear. You notice the result the same day — and it builds with repetition.

01

You step into the cabin

3 minutes · protected extremities · guidance before and after. You stand still — the machine does the work.

02

Your body responds to the cold

Blood vessels contract to protect warmth. Right after, blood flows back forcefully to your muscles and organs.

03

Recovery mechanisms kick in

Pain signals are dampened. Inflammatory responses decrease. The nervous system switches from active to recovery.

04

You notice it that same day

Energy, alertness, less stiffness. And with repetition: better sleep, faster recovery, steadier energy.

"Most people only notice real difference after the third or fourth session. That's why the Intro card exists."pragma° health
02 · What you notice

Immediate effect. And more with repetition.

One session gives an immediate feeling. A membership gives structural change. WBC works through repetition — not as a one-off treatment.

Immediately · during and right after

You feel it straight away

More energy and alertness · less pain and stiffness · a lighter feeling in the body · better mood.

Shortly after · hours to a day

Your body keeps recovering

Muscle soreness fades faster · circulation improves · tension releases more easily · inflammation decreases.

Over time · weeks of repetition

Your rhythm changes

Deeper, calmer sleep · steadier energy through the day · faster recovery after exertion · tension lingers less.

03 · Right for you?

Who Pragma Recovery does the most for.

Pragma Recovery fits you if

  • You wake up tired despite enough sleep.
  • Your energy fluctuates through the day.
  • You struggle to shed tension.
  • Your recovery after exertion is slower than it used to be.
  • You exercise and want to recover faster.

For local fat reduction: see Pragma Transformation → — focused on body change and zones that no longer respond to food and exercise.

07 · Frequently asked questions

What people want to know before they start.

How quickly will I notice something?

Right after your first session you'll notice more energy and less stiffness. Structural difference — better sleep, steadier energy, faster recovery — shows on average after four to six weeks of regular use.

How cold is it, and is it dangerous?

The cabin reaches down to −140°C, but you're only in it for three minutes and your extremities are protected. For healthy adults without contraindications, WBC is safe. We always discuss this before your first session.

How often should I come for results?

Your body responds to repetition. Twice a week is the effective minimum for most people. Once a week already makes a difference, but more slowly. More than twice accelerates the result further.

How does the membership work?

The membership runs per 4 weeks via direct debit. The minimum period is 4 weeks. After that it's cancellable per 4 weeks — you cancel before the start of the next period.

Can I combine this with sports?

Yes — and many of our clients do so deliberately. WBC speeds up recovery after training. Right after your workout or the next morning are popular moments.

What if I also want to work on my body shape?

Then Pragma Transformation is the right addition: a program with a set number of sessions alongside your recovery membership. In the Pragma Consult we look at the logical order.

Why do you wake up tired despite enough sleep?

After forty, the way your body recovers during sleep changes. The system that regulates cortisol and stress hormones becomes less well synchronised. You make the hours, but deep restorative sleep gets shorter. The result: you wake up without your body having truly recharged.
