Ready, set... freeze! Glam Lab steps into a -220 degree chamber for CryotherapyBRRR - it's cold in here! Glam Lab steps into a -220 degree chamber for Cryotherapy. Could you handle the cold?!

MANHATTAN, New York (WABC) -- Ready, set... freeze!

For the next episode of Glam Lab, I stepped into subzero degrees to get a dose of full body Cryotherapy!

We went to CryoEmpire in midtown to check out one of the safest, most efficient chambers out there.

CryoEmpire owner, Arty Perlov, explained why professional athletes take on the extreme cold all the time.

Short answer: it helps heal their bodies faster for peak performance. I despise the cold, so this was not the easiest of treatments for me.

Before stepping into -186 degrees, I had a minor freak out. So, are the few minutes of frost worth it?

Check out this week's episode of Glam Lab to see if I can handle the cold!
