TOWIE star Gemma Collins has found a way to chill out and lose weight — fat-busting sessions in an ice chamber.

The GC, 40, revealed she was hooked on cryotherapy, which shifts the pounds by brief exposure to temperatures close to -200C.

She recently went for a naked session in a chamber and declared: “I want one in my house.”

Also called cold therapy, it uses liquid nitrogen to reduce the air temperature to well below the lowest naturally recorded on Earth — a bone-chilling -89.2C in Antarctica in 1983.

It helps with various ailments and is said to get rid of up to 800 calories in a single five-minute, £100 session.

New chambers cost from £50,000 to £100,000.

Ex-Dancing on Ice contestant Gemma told her Radio 1 podcast: “I’ve been doing some really cool stuff. I went into an ice chamber and, yes, I was naked.

“It was minus 188C and it freezes your body and it starts getting rid of all your fat.

“I actually want one put in my house. I want to go in it all day every day.”

Gemma also said she’d given up cakes, adding: “After working out you just think, that bit of cake, that’s another hour doing squat thrusts with weights — hell, no, it’s not worth it.”
