Nevada Cryotherapy Salon Manager Found Dead Inside Cryochamber

A young salon manager was found dead inside a cryochamber where she is thought to have suffocated, according to police and local media reports. 

Employees at Rejuvenice in Henderson, Nevada found the body of Chelsea Ake, 24, inside one of the ice machines earlier this week NBC station KSNV reported. 

Ake, the manager of the business, is thought to have gone into one of the cryochambers on her own, it said.

Whole-body cryotherapy is offered as an alternative to cold-water immersion or ice packs, but machines are never used for more than three minutes because temperatures can fall as low as minus 240 degrees Fahrenheit.
