Nevada officials on Tuesday ordered the closure of a cryotherapy center just outside Las Vegas where police say a worker was found dead last week in a chamber that exposes a person's body to extremely cold air.
The facility operated by Rejuvenice LLC was ordered closed because it could not provide proof it had a worker's compensation insurance policy, said Teri Williams, spokeswoman for the state Department of Business and Industry.
The move to close the facility just outside the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson comes a week after Chelsea Ake-Salvacion, 24, was found dead of an apparent accident at the center on Oct. 20.
