TechnoAlpin Indoor’s Snowroom introduces a new approach to recovery by using real snow as a gentle and engaging cooling environment after exercise. Unlike ice baths or cryotherapy chambers, the snowroom provides gradual cooling that supports recovery while creating a relaxing multisensory experience.
Snowroom introduces a new approach to sports recovery by using real snow
Cold exposure helps reduce inflammation, limit muscle damage and preserve neuromuscular function after intense activity, and studies reviewed by the Universities of Trento and Verona confirm that cryotherapy can support post-exercise recovery and reduce soreness.
Snow offers an accessible alternative that cools the body evenly without the shock of cold water immersion. Beyond physical recovery, the environment also promotes mental regeneration, supporting relaxation, sleep quality and emotional balance.
Our snowrooms are individually designed and adapted to each customer’s concept, space and operational needs.
Who’s using it?
High‑performance sports centres, and health and wellness clubs – for example at the Texas Christian University (TCU) College Recovery Center.

The high performance chiller offers a reliable, consistent cold water immersion experience as low as 1 degree. The bath delivers exceptional hygiene standards in line with industry guidance, supporting high daily bather loads.
Glacier Ice can be manufactured for indoor or outdoor use
Featuring a 50sq ft skim filtration system as standard, with optional sand filtration, operators can choose from manual or fully automated digital dosing systems, with remote access and smart controls. The price is £15,000.

The Henshaw Hyperbaric Chamber is our hero recovery solution. It increases oxygen delivery to support recovery, reduce fatigue and improve wellbeing.

Our Monozen chamber is popular due to its design and features. It measures W x L, 199cm (78”) by 137cm (54”), with an air compressor, O2 concentrator and dehumidifier and 2 ATA pressure.

Infrared Therapy is available in several configurations designed for the fitness sector, including our Sport Infrared Cabin and Infrared Lounger.
This technology uses infrared radiation to generate deep, controlled heat that penetrates the tissues, promoting muscle relaxation, improving circulation and stimulating gradual perspiration. The result is effective support both in the preparation phase before training and in post-activity recovery.
For health club operators, integrating recovery technologies means enriching the member experience beyond the workout. Dedicated recovery areas increase the perceived value of memberships and encourage members to visit the club even on rest days, improving retention and engagement.
For health club operators, integrating recovery technologies means enriching the member experience beyond the workout
Sport Infrared Cabin operates at moderate temperatures (around 35 – 40°C) using a combined system of electric heater and infrared lamps that directly irradiate the back area. The cabin requires approximately 3-4sq m of space and a three-phase power supply, with energy requirements varying depending on the configuration.
For more flexible environments, Infrared Lounger offers an ergonomic single-seat solution that allows operators to create modular recovery areas.
Who’s using it?
International clubs such as Virgin Active and professional sports teams such as the Bolzano Foxes hockey team.

With 4,400 high-performance LEDs delivering powerful red light (630nm-660nm) and near-infrared (850nm) for an effective full-body recovery experience, our wellsystem RedWave is our hero product.
For sustainable training and workout success, recovery and regeneration are just as important as the workout itself.
Red light therapy helps accelerate the body’s natural recovery process, allowing members to train harder and recover faster
Wellsystem RedWave harnesses the effects of photobiomodulation – the interaction of red light and deep-penetrating near-infrared with the body’s cells. It shortens recovery time so members can get back to training sooner; supports lactate breakdown to reduce post-workout fatigue; boosts cellular energy production for enhanced performance; promotes blood circulation for improved nutrient delivery and stimulates cellular activity to support natural regeneration.
RedWave’s measurements are L x W x H (in cm): 216 x 93 x 97 closed, and 216 x 112 x 124 open, with a maximum power consumption of 1.4 kW (230 V).
Who’s using it?
Third Space, Gym Box and CPASE are among our RedWave customers.

Our Wellsystem HydroWave Pure – a Hydrojet massage system – combines the positive effects of water, heat and massage. It has an integrated cooling system and no plumbing is required.

The offering is further enhanced by exclusive applications such as the Frimas Ice Steam Room and the Espuro Foam Steam Bath – both concepts that can deliver unique, multisensory wellness experiences. These innovations support regeneration and enhance guest wellbeing.

Power Plate UK
Our hero product is Power Plate Pro8 – the largest, most advanced model in our portfolio. Features include embedded exercise videos and an integrated LCD touchscreen, as well as electronically-controlled Promotion resistance cables.
Power Plate Pro8 delivers whole‑body vibration that increases muscle activation, improving strength and balance. It also enhances circulation and lymphatic drainage, supporting recovery and reducing stiffness. Vibration boosts flexibility and range of motion, and can stimulate improvements in bone density through mechanical loading. These benefits make it valuable for strength, mobility, recovery and healthy ageing
Clubs can promote Power Plate as a science‑backed recovery enhancer
Clubs can create dedicated recovery zones with short guided sessions and offer post‑workout demos so members experience immediate relief.
They can also emphasise the benefits for all ages, including improved mobility and healthy ageing, supported by whole‑body vibration research.
