Benefits
  • Pain relief and muscle healing.
  • Weight loss.
  • Reduced inflammation.
  • Reducing anxiety and depression.
  • Improving symptoms of eczema.
  • Treating migraine headaches.
  • Reducing inflammation.
  • Promoting lower metabolism. 
  • Burns calories & promotes fat loss. 
  • Reduce swelling & tightens skin.
Cryotherapy is the use of extremely cold temperatures to promote full body wellness results! Here at Lux Tan & Cryo we utilize the power of liquid nitrogen vapor to cool the body down and to promote healing. This method of utilizing cold temperatures as a therapy has been around for years but now with the amazing resources we have we can get the most out of this treatment! We offer whole-body cryotherapy, localized cryotherapy and cryo facials. It is a quick and painless treatment that has helped clients of all ages. To book an appointment you can book online or call the location you'd like to visit.

We recommend coming in 3-5 times per week for optimal results. 
Studies show cryotherapy before a workout is often used to help increase flexibility, range of motion and the flow of blood and oxygen through your body. OR train and exercise hard before or after a cryotherapy session so you can see and feel reduced inflammation, muscle soreness, and joint pain for more of a recovery session.

We Can Help You With Your New Year's Resolutions!

Happy New Year! We're so excited to start the new year off with 5 locations! We did a lot as a company in 2022 and now that we're entering a new year we can't wait for it to be as successful as possible. One way we want to do that is to help our clients with their New Year's Resolutions! 

From the website News 10, it states that the top resolutions for 2023 from Americans are: Exercise More, Eat Healthy, Lose Weight, Save Money and Spend More Time With Family. Those are all great resolutions and we want to help! We can help with confidence building, losing weight, becoming heathier and exercising more, and here's how:

1. Confidence Building: Let's be honest, a lot of our confidence comes from how we feel about ourselves. One sure way to feel great about yourself is with a fantastic tan. We offer the best tanning beds and spray tanning options. Having a beautiful glow will help you look and feel better. And we love the phrase, "if you can't tone it, tan it!" It's true, everyone looks a few pounds lighter with a tan. You will also get a boost of Vitamin D from our tanning beds which has been proven to help with Seasonal Affective Disorder, it can boost your energy levels and it can promote serotonin levels. 

2. Lose Weight: This is our specialty! We offer a few different treatments for weight loss, skin tightening and fat burning. Our most popular treatment is our Sculpt Pod Pro. This combines the power of Infrared Heat, Red-Light Therapy and a Vibrating & Massaging mattress. With this combination of treatments the Sculpt Pod Pro is proven to promote weight loss, suppress appetite, burn calories, boost lymphatic drainage and kill fat cells. It is a 30-minute treatment and we recommend doing 10-12 sessions per month for at least 3 months for optimal results. We offer this treatment at our Lake Oswego and Beaverton locations. Another popular fat freezing treatment is our Cryo T-Shock. This treatment focuses on one area of the body at a time to kill fat cells, promote collagen for tighter skin and to contour the body. This treatment is 40-60 minutes long and it can really benefit clients that are looking for quick, long-lasting results. We offer a free consultation for this service and we also recommend pairing this with our Sculpt Pod Pro sessions. Here are a few more treatments that have helped our clients lose weight: Cryotherapy - burns calories, promotes weight loss, tightens skin and helps reduce toxins in the body. Lastly, Red-Light Therapy can promote lymphatic drainage, boost ATP in the body and speed up recovery.

3. Become Healthier: at Lux Tan & Cryo we're all about creating a healthy and well-balanced life. One way to do that is to have a self-care routine in your life. We know life can be busy and stressful so making self-care a top priority is a must! Whether it's a quick cryotherapy session to boost your mood or a 15-minute session in one of our Red-Light beds...it's going to make you feel amazing! We can't count how many times our clients will leave our salons after doing a treatment saying, "wow, I feel so much better, thank you!" And that is why we love what we do. 
​
4. Exercise More: Red-Light Therapy promotes ATP. From the wellness website Very Well Health it states that ATP is "Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an energy-carrying molecule known as the 'energy currency of life' or the 'fuel of life', because it's the universal energy source for all living cells." Wow, is all we have to say about that! Red-Light Therapy is full of benefits but we'd like to think promoting ATP is one of the best benefits. It is recommended to do Red-Light Therapy 3-4 times per week. Boosting the ATP in your body will help you workout more because it will promote recovery, reduce soreness and get you working out more often! Another treatment to get you to the gym more is our Cryotherapy booth. Cryotherapy is a form of cold-shock or cold therapy. It is a 2-3 minute session that surrounds your body with liquid nitrogen vapor. It's freezing yes but it's only a few minutes and you'll feel invigorated afterwards! Cryo has been proven to burn calories, reduce inflammation, reduce pain and promote athletic recovery. 

We hope this blog post has given you some ideas to crush your 2023 goals! We hope to see you soon.

How To Prepare For A Spray Tan

12/22/2022

0 Comments

At Lux Tan & Cryo we LOVE spray tanning. Whether it's a booth spray tan or a heated airbrush spray tan! Not only does spray tanning leave your skin bronze but our spray tans will also moisturize your skin. With the combo of a golden glow and nourished skin, you'll be ready for any event or vacation. Here are some tips to prepare your skin for a spray tan to get the best results. 

1. Shave and exfoliate the day before your spray tan. This will prep your skin for the sunless solution. 
2. No product on your skin the day of your spray tan. Skip the oils, lotions and makeup right before your spray tan. Products can create a barrier between your skin and the spray tan solution.
3. We recommend taking off all jewelry before spray tanning.
4. Bring with you (or wear) dark, loose-fitting clothing for after the spray tan solution is on your skin. This way none of the bronzers will rub off and tight clothes could mess up the final results. 
5. Enjoy your bronzed & glowing skin! 

We'll see you soon for your next spray tan! If you'd like to book a Heated Airbrush Tan please click the "Book Now" tab to see available times. We offer Heated Airbrush Tans at our Lake Oswego, West Linn and Beaverton locations.

Light Therapy to Combat Seasonal Affective Disorder

12/14/2022

Did you know that Oregon has the highest reported cases of Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.)? This disorder affects people in multiple ways. It can create a lethargic feeling causing low motivation for daily activities. It can also create a depressed mindset and tiredness. Studies have shown that because of Oregon's climate many Oregonians experience S.A.D. especially during the Fall and Winter months. Maybe you can relate?

One way to combat this disorder is to visit a tanning salon that offers a wide variety of different light therapies. Here at Lux Tan and Cryo we offer many different light therapy options. The most popular is our U.V. tanning beds. Our tanning beds are regulated by the state, and we follow all safety protocols for safe tanning. We have 3 levels of tanning beds that clients can choose from. Our most popular tanning beds are the High Pressure and Medium Level tanning beds. Clients get their dose of Vitamin D from these beds and their "happy nap" as some clients call it. A Cleveland Clinic medical professional stated that a great treatment for S.A.D. is light therapy and Vitamin D. Both of which you can obtain from our tanning beds. Clients come in feeling a bit down and tired but after just a few minutes of their tanning session they leave feeling rejuvenated and ready to tackle the rest of their day!

If U.V. Tanning isn't for you we also offer Red Light Therapy, Lumi Light Facials and the Sculpt Pod Pro. All of these services offer full body and facial light therapy. These output red light and other LED colors to boost your blood circulation, promote A.T.P, boost the lymphatic system, speed up recovery and more! Light Therapy will also help you feel relaxed, rejuvenated and will promote rapid healing. 

So, if you're one of the many Oregonians who suffer from S.A.D swing by one of our 5 locations and try out some light therapy, you may leave with a big smile on your face!
