An orderly autopsy

An investigation in search of the causes of death is open and entrusted to the police station of the 11th arrondissement of Paris, in co-saisine with the labor inspectorate.

Cryotherapy is a “cold therapy” which consists in placing a person for two to three minutes in rooms or cabins whose temperature can drop under -110 ° C.

The person is immersed in ice water baths or nitrogen bedrooms.
Initially intended for high -level athletes in order to prevent or treat muscle pain after exercise, this practice is proposed to relieve inflammatory or neurological diseases, and even used outside of any pathological context.
