Cryotherapy has become a popular new therapy by exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures. Typically, liquid nitrogen is used to create these extremely cold temperatures, which generate the need to monitor oxygen levels for customer and employee safety.
The cryosauna installation shall include an oxygen detection system set to activate an alarm at 19.5% O2 by volume or sooner. The detector should be installed near the sauna cabin, in proximity to the occupant’s breathing zone.
Overall, cryotherapy has been shown to be an effective and safe way to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and promote healing in a variety of different contexts. Cryotherapy is a therapeutic treatment that uses extremely cold temperatures to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and relieve pain. There are different types of cryotherapy, including whole-body cryotherapy (WBC), localized cryotherapy, cryofacial, cryosurgery, and cryolipolysis. WBC exposes the entire body to very cold temperatures for a short period of time, while localized cryotherapy targets a specific area of the body. Cryofacial tightens pores and improves skin texture, while cryosurgery destroys abnormal or diseased tissue. Cryolipolysis destroys fat cells to reduce unwanted fat. Overall, cryotherapy has been proven to be effective and safe in reducing inflammation, alleviating pain, and promoting healing.
