Some of the ailments for which people use cryotherapy include rheumatology, orthopedic conditions, joint pain, athletic recovery, and reducing inflammation.
The center’s founder, Marie O’Connor, is a registered nurse in New York and Connecticut. She received her doctorate degree in nursing from Sacred Heart University and her master's in nursing administration from Kaplan University.
O'Connor most recently worked at Stamford and White Plains Hospitals, and as a care consultant for Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield.
“When I researched the benefits of cryotherapy I knew I wanted to be able to offer the services to people in this area particularly because there isn’t any other facility nearby. I have seen and experienced the benefits firsthand and know how great people feel after the short but effective treatment,” she said.
Connor is a resident of Yonkers. She is a member of the American Association of Critical Care Nurses and the American Nurses Association.
