Product description

Per your description, “The ‘Cryosauna Aurosport’ is designed for general physical training, sports and tourism.” It is primarily a cabin which can accommodate athletes up to 210 centimeters tall. Your import will include a remote control system for the operator. Since it utilizes liquid nitrogen in the cooling process, it produces extremely low temperatures inside the cabin.
