Geez. Not sure how exactly they got hurt, but cryotherapy has been around for awhile. The article makes it sound like they smeared the players in goat's blood and shook snake rattles.

The FDA also doesn't approve vitamins, herbs, or supplements like creatine which are common amongst high performance athletes. (See Tom Brady and his TB12 products.)

This was posted on Bears forum about the incident. No source listed, so take it for what it is, but the story makes sense:

After the players reached the place of this incident as I have found out, there was a thick pad on the bottom of the machine in question. The players were too tall to stand, and the pad was removed exposing the bottom of machines surface. The pad was there for a reason, and someone recommended it to be taken out. As soon as Fofana stood in the machine and it was activated, he screamed in pain at some point, and they took him out. (Too Late) After that, Scurry was then placed in the machine and felt the same pain and was immediately removed. This is my understanding from a reliable source. This is not testimony, only information. Fofana is now apparently out for the year, and Scurry for two more weeks.
This is a difficult situation for all involved because no-one believes it was intentional. I hope we can get to the final analysis and prevent any litigation. There will be additional explanations, so just take this as IMO.

But unlike cryotherapy, vitamins, herbs, and (most) supplements have research backing them up.

And for the record, the service was done on campus.

Unlike vitamins, minerals and supplements, cryotherapy looks cool on Instagram.
