Offering pain relief, fat loss, anti-ageing and general health & wellbeing, the innovative and unique treatments available are designed to help supercharge the body.
Shauna Sharples (r) with therapist Melissa Boardman Directors, Suzanne & Tony Chiha opened the first franchise of Cryoplus in Umina Beach, NSW, 3 years after the first clinic opened in Erina Heights. Motivated by their own personal experience with the powerful pain-relieving effects of Cryotherapy, combined with a passionate interest in holistic health treatment modalities and beauty/ wellness, the Umina Beach location was built. Cryoplus sourced the best scientifically-proven technologies, so they can offer specialised custom treatments to a wide range of clients, all with the same goal of optimising the bodies natural ability to Relax, Recover & Rejuvenate. Catering for clients ranging from athletes wanting to maximise performance to someone seeking natural pain management, to those wanting to help shape their summer body, increase health and wellbeing or just recharge and unplug, Cryoplus specialise in ensuring each client receives the best possible treatment, or combination of treatments, in a welcoming, state of the art facility. The clinics have been custom designed and built for each therapy from the ground up using industry-leading Cryotherapy equipment from Cryo Science, DreamPods (Float pods), Normatec Recovery Compression, Celluma LED light therapy and top of the line Infrared Sauna from Sunstream Saunas.
Recently we spoke to Shauna Sharples, Beauty Therapist at Cryoplus Umina, to find out more about these innovative and scientific services. Can you tell us a little about how Cryoplus came about?
The founder and creator, Renaldo Robberste has a degree in Sports Science and recovery and a passion for natural therapies. His centre at Erina Heights was established in 2018. Suzanne and Tony Chiha sought pain relief treatments for a debilitating back injury, at the Erina Heights Centre. The healing response proved to be so profound that they opened the first cryoplus franchise of their own in Umina Beach in February 2021.
