Sore from your day? Start with the experience you want.
A long shift, a demanding week at a desk, gardening, moving furniture, a day of walking, or getting back into exercise can leave you wanting a recovery break. For ordinary muscle aches or stiffness, compare the goal and the experience. Celluma Pro LED offers a targeted light session for temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness. Localized cryotherapy directs cold air to one selected area; NormaTec is the seated pressure option for heavy legs. Whole body cryotherapy is a brief cold-chamber visit, while infrared sauna and hydromassage offer warmth. Start with the options below. For new injuries, severe or unexplained pain, major swelling, numbness, or difficulty bearing weight, seek medical guidance before booking.
Choose by how you feel
Compare Celluma PRO for temporary relief of minor aches with focused cold air. Choose a light panel or a brief staff-guided XCryo session in a private treatment room.
Compare NormaTec compression, a seated session using pneumatic leg sleeves that inflate and release in sequence.
Compare whole body cryotherapy, a staff-guided cold-air chamber session lasting about 3 to 5 minutes.
Compare a private infrared sauna visit or a clothed hydromassage session.
Long shift. Heavy legs. Take a seat.
Restaurant doubles, a nursing shift, hours on a shop floor, or a day exploring New Orleans can make sitting down sound especially appealing. You do not need to be an athlete to book a recovery break.
For ordinary tiredness or soreness, choose the experience you want. Staff screening comes before your session.
Seated leg pressure
NormaTec compression uses leg sleeves that inflate and release in sequence. Rest in the chair while the sleeves work.
30 minutes · $30
Warm pressure while lying back
Hydromassage moves heated water beneath a dry bed. Stay dressed and choose the pressure and target area.

Interested in both? The regular single-session total is $60 for two 30-minute appointments. Choose compatible times and complete a separate confirmation for each service. You can pay after the visit.
New or unusual one-sided swelling, redness, unexplained pain or other concerning symptoms need medical guidance before a compression visit.
One visit is enough to get started. No membership required. You can pay after your visit, or prepay if you prefer. Picked the wrong service or membership option? Staff can help adjust it when you arrive.
Light-based relief for minor muscle and joint aches
Celluma Pro LED is an option when you want targeted light rather than focused cold air. Its infrared program provides topical heating for temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness. Staff positions the flexible panel over the selected area while you rest. Tell the team which area you want to focus on so they can discuss the program and screening.
Book Celluma alone for $35, or choose Hydromassage + Celluma for $50 to pair LED light with adjustable warm water pressure beneath a dry bed.
Common questions by body area
My back hurts after a workout. Where should I go?
First decide whether this feels like ordinary post-workout soreness or something that needs medical evaluation. For minor muscle aches or stiffness, compare Celluma Pro LED with focused cold, whole body cold, sauna, and hydromassage. Staff can explain the setup for the area you want to focus on; NOLA Chill does not diagnose back pain.
What can I book for knee soreness?
Localized cryotherapy is the NOLA Chill option that keeps the cold-air session on one requested area, including a knee when staff screening permits. It is a wellness experience, not treatment for a knee injury.
What about ankle soreness after running?
If it is ordinary post-run soreness and you can bear weight normally, compare localized cryotherapy for one selected area with NormaTec when both legs feel heavy. New swelling, instability, severe pain, or trouble bearing weight belongs with a healthcare professional.
What about shoulder or elbow soreness?
For ordinary soreness in one selected area, localized cryotherapy is the focused cold-air format. If the discomfort is new, persistent, unexplained, or limits normal movement, seek medical guidance first.
When a wellness session should not be your first stop
Do not use this guide to self-diagnose an injury. Get medical guidance for sharp or severe pain, a significant impact, major or increasing swelling, instability, numbness, weakness, inability to bear weight, symptoms that persist or worsen, or anything else that concerns you. If you may have a medical emergency, use emergency services.

Frequently asked questions
Can I visit after a long shift even if I am not an athlete?
Yes. NOLA Chill welcomes people looking for a wellness break after work, walking or everyday activity. A seated compression appointment is 30 minutes for $30, and a fully clothed Hydromassage appointment is 30 minutes for $30. New or concerning symptoms require medical guidance first.
Where can I find localized cryotherapy for a sore knee near me?
NOLA Chill offers localized cryotherapy at 6045 Magazine Street in Uptown New Orleans. It is a $35 staff-guided wellness session focused on one selected area. A sore knee can have many causes, so seek medical guidance when symptoms are new, severe, persistent, swollen, unstable, or unexplained.
Where can I go for sore muscles after a workout?
NOLA Chill offers Celluma Pro LED for temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, alongside focused cold air, whole body cryotherapy, compression, sauna, and hydromassage. Celluma is $35 alone or $50 with Hydromassage. Choose by your goal and preferred session; new injuries or unexplained symptoms need clinical evaluation.
What can I book for heavy legs after running?
NormaTec is the seated compression option many NOLA Chill clients choose when both legs feel heavy after running, travel, or long hours on their feet. Individual experiences vary, and the session is not injury treatment.
Is localized cryotherapy the same as putting ice on an injury?
No. NOLA Chill uses a brief, staff-guided cold-air format, and it should not be treated as interchangeable with a clinician-directed icing protocol. Ask a qualified healthcare professional what is appropriate for an injury or medical condition.
