Cryotherapy

objective the objective of a cryotherapy treatment room is to provide a controlled and safe environment for individuals to undergo cryotherapy sessions the room aims to facilitate the cryotherapy treatment process and ensure the well being of the users some specific objectives of a cryotherapy treatment room include overall, the objective is to provide a dedicated space that supports the therapeutic benefits of cryotherapy while prioritizing the safety, comfort, and well being of users cold therapy delivery the room should enable the controlled delivery of extremely low temperatures to the user's body through the cryotherapy machine or booth safety ensuring the safety of individuals undergoing cryotherapy is of utmost importance the treatment room should be designed to minimize risks associated with extreme cold exposure and provide emergency measures and alarms in case of any issues comfort creating a comfortable environment for users during the treatment is essential factors such as room temperature, lighting, and ventilation should be optimized to enhance user comfort efficiency the room should be designed to facilitate efficient workflow, allowing for smooth transitions between users and streamlined operations hygiene and cleanliness maintaining a clean and hygienic environment is crucial the treatment room should be easy to clean and sanitize to ensure safety and prevent the spread of infections design requirements for a cryotherapy booth room adequate space to accommodate the cryotherapy booth and necessary equipment proper layout to ensure ease of movement and accessibility sufficient insulation to maintain desired temperatures appropriate ventilation system to ensure fresh air circulation equipment requirements for a cryotherapy booth room cryotherapy booth or chamber, designed to provide controlled cold therapy cryotherapy machine or unit for generating extremely low temperatures safety features such as emergency stop buttons and alarms monitoring equipment (e g , temperature sensors, timers) to ensure safe operation lighting requirements for a cryotherapy booth room sufficient lighting to ensure visibility and safety within the room led lighting or similar fixtures that can withstand low temperatures emergency lighting in case of power failures storage requirements for a cryotherapy booth room storage space for personal belongings of users storage for maintenance tools and supplies cabinets or shelves for storing consumables and equipment related to cryotherapy hvac (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) requirements for a cryotherapy booth room adequate cooling system to maintain low temperatures within the booth efficient air circulation and ventilation system to remove any excess humidity and prevent condensation control system to monitor and adjust temperature and humidity levels as necessary m e p (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) requirements for a cryotherapy booth room electrical outlets to power the cryotherapy machine and other equipment emergency electrical supply or backup generator plumbing connections for water supply to the cryotherapy machine if required drainage system for condensation and wastewater space planning requirements for a cryotherapy booth room sufficient space to accommodate the cryotherapy booth and necessary equipment clearances around the booth for ease of movement and accessibility adequate space for users to change and store personal belongings separate waiting area for users, if applicable millwork requirements for a cryotherapy booth room custom cabinetry or shelving for storage of consumables and equipment bench or seating area for users to change and prepare for the treatment sink or countertop for cleaning and disinfection purposes, if needed mounting surfaces for monitors or control panels, if required adjacency requirements for a cryotherapy booth room close proximity to a changing area or locker room for users to prepare for the treatment access to a restroom facility for users' convenience proximity to a designated waiting area for users before and after the treatment easy access to an electrical panel or power source for the cryotherapy machine and other equipment cryotherapy nitrogen cryotherapy nitrogen cryotherapy machines are low tech machines and easy to build they consist of cryogenic pipes and valves with few electronic parts to control the machine it works by turning liquid nitrogen into gas and pushing it through the pipes in the cryo chamber requirements changing room – dedicate some space for a changing room for the comfort of your clients a regular changing room with hooks and racks will be sufficient nitrogen tanks – dedicate enough space to store liquid nitrogen pressurized system make sure you can easily move nitrogen tanks when getting a nitrogen delivery by having unobstructed access between the cryotherapy unit and the refill site one 240 liter tank can take up to about 2 5 ft x 2 5 ft/65 cm x 65 cm of space nitrogen tanks build up moisture on the outer coating that can drip on the floor non pressurized system make sure you can easily move nitrogen tanks when getting a nitrogen delivery by having unobstructed access between the cryotherapy unit and the refill site one 50 liter dewar can take up to about 1 ft 8 in x 1 ft 8 in / 50 cm x 50 cm of space accessories buy a cabinet/install shelves for accessories a starter pack of gloves, safety collar and safety footwear come standard with the cryo chamber ventilation as part of safety protocols we recommend that all customers install the following ventilation fans/pipes exhaust fans exhaust fans the exhaust fan continuously pulls air from the room while the cryotherapy equipment is in operation fresh air flow air conditioning continuously brings in fresh air a safe setup is one that can ensure 6 air changes within the room in one hour evacuation pipe the evacuation pipe is connected to the cryo chamber and leads outside where it lets out nitrogen vapors after each session ensuring onsite safety – liquid nitrogen is turned into gas which can gradually build up in the room if it goes unchecked forced ventilation of the room is therefore a necessity the cryotherapy chamber must have the ability to evacuate any excess nitrogen from the room prepare and opening of a diameter of at least 5 in/ 15 cm on an external wall that will be connected to the cryotherapy unit this allows for excess nitrogen to be expelled outside of the client cabin and room on several occasions, we have previously connected the exhaust to the existing ventilation system which can save some work many locations will need to install an air inflow system in order to ensure that fresh air is continuously forced into the room 6 exchanges of air per hour are sufficient to comply with safety standards an oxygen sensor must be installed in the room to monitor oxygen saturation the cryo xc plus has an oxygen sensor built in that tracks the surrounding environment and warns the operator about oxygen saturation in the room but is not used as a replacement for certified oxygen monitoring systems electric cryotherapy – electric cryotherapy machines are higher technology they use cooling agents and heavy duty heat exchangers to compress air and trigger a decrease in temperature they blow the cooled air into the chambers thanks to powerful fans electric chambers are more expensive at the time of purchase but are safer and easier to operate the electric version works like a giant refrigerator and doesn’t have any other spatial requirements links https //www cryochambers com/cryotherapy machine buying guide/ https //www medicalexpo com/medical
