Whole-Body Cryotherapy

Toshima Yamauchi

“Yamauchi's cryochamber method: brief, extreme cold air instead of water.”

Rheumatology in Japan put patients in −110°C air for minutes. Sports later bought the chamber. Different physics from an ice bath; same noun family.

Opened air-based extreme cold as a session.
