Our of the features of all living organisms is constant maintenance of its internal state-homeostasis. Whole body cryotherapy - intensive short-term (up to 3 min) whole-body irritation with dry nitrogen vapor cooled environment (-160° C). It triggers a sharp organism response, which manifests by an increase in the complexity of organisms adaptive reactions. Cardiovascular system interacts with all organism systems, and expresses its all functionality in electrical processes (ECG). ECG represents cardiac function at all levels of complexity. Assessment of the parameters is important not only for their size, transitions, but for the relationship between these parameters also. With the help of computerized ECG analysis program "Kaunas-Load", the individual changes of concatenations of ECG parameters during each procedure separately and the entire course of treatment generally can represent an individual organisms adaptive reserves, their gradual involvement in the organisms adaptation processes speed and degree, also period (in terms of number of procedures needed), necessary for body's response to sudden environmental changes to occur.
