Cryotherapy Techs face unique challenges: Managing tight back-to-back 3-minute sessions where a single late client throws off the whole chamber schedule. Tracking liquid-nitrogen levels and reorders so the chamber never runs out mid-day. Selling and burning down session packages and monthly memberships for athletes and recovery regulars. Screening contraindications (pregnancy, uncontrolled hypertension, cold allergies) on every visit and keeping waivers current. On top of all that, Square charges $29/month ($348/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median Cryotherapy Tech earns $35,000/year. Software at $348/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Whole-body cryo chamber or cryosauna fed by liquid nitrogen is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

He checks the liquid-nitrogen dewar level first thing, because a low tank means a dead chamber by noon, and logs the reading. He preps the cryosauna, confirms the thermometer is dropping toward minus two hundred, and lays out dry slippers and gloves. The morning is a parade of three-minute sessions: a runner before her shift, a contractor with a bad back, a CrossFit regular on a monthly membership who's in and out in five minutes flat. Each one steps in, he raises the platform so their head stays above the cold vapor, sets the timer, talks them through the breathing, and watches the clock and their face the whole time. One walks in flushed and mentions a new blood-pressure medication, so the tech pauses to re-screen before letting him in. The whole model lives or dies on cadence: if a client shows up late, the next three back up. Midday he does a localized cryo facial with the spot wand. Between sessions he wipes down the platform, swaps damp slippers, and checks who's on a membership versus paying per visit. He calls the nitrogen supplier to schedule a refill before he dips below the safety line, then keeps the line moving.
