Capital Cryo

Overview

Capital Cryo is a premier cryotherapy and wellness studio specializing in advanced cold therapy treatments, including cryo saunas and infrared saunas, alongside other recovery services. With locations in Washington, DC and Bethesda, MD, it caters to athletes, individuals with chronic pain, and those seeking rejuvenation. The facilities emphasize a clean, modern, and calming atmosphere, featuring sleek designs, state-of-the-art equipment like JUKA cryotherapy machines, and a professional, knowledgeable staff. Clients describe an exceptional experience with immediate pain relief, reduced inflammation, boosted energy, and improved sleep—often after just a 3-minute session in temperatures as low as -225°F to -240°F. The holistic approach promotes recovery similar to ice baths used by professionals, fostering a sense of well-being in a contact-free, sanitized environment.

Notes

• What Makes Capital Cryo Special: Unlike traditional ice packs or baths, their cryo saunas offer efficient, monitored whole-body exposure with endorphin bursts and systemic benefits. Infrared saunas pair perfectly for heat-cold contrast therapy. Highly praised for pain management (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis testimonials report full pain relief and sleep restoration). Inclusive and accessible—not just for elite athletes but college students, busy professionals, and chronic condition sufferers. Safety-focused: Blood pressure checks, waivers, and contraindications screened (e.g., no high blood pressure, heart disease, pregnancy). Glowing reviews (Google/Yelp) highlight cleanliness, professionalism, and results like “changed my world.” Partners enhance holistic wellness; featured in local media like NBC4 and American University Eagle.
