— June 8, 2026 — Lifestyle
The Therabody CryoTherm Palm is an advanced recovery tool engineered with a different kind of therapy in mind to maximize the capabilities for athletes.

The device targets the hands with a design that will help with lowering the user's core body temperature when used mid training session to delay the onset of fatigue between sets. The device could thus allow athletes to push and train harder, and will perform cold, hot and contrast therapy. A built-in timer will help users to perform quick treatments without the need to check their smartphone.

The Therabody CryoTherm Palm will deliver up to 120-minutes of use per charge and is available now for preorder from the brand for $399.99, and comes backed by a series of science-backed benefits.
