Cold water therapy involves immersing your body in cold water to promote health. The principle is that cold water relieves pain by causing blood vessels to constrict and reducing blood flow to the area. Forms of cold water therapy include ice baths, cold showers, cold pools, or cryo chambers.
Cold water therapy can help improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation, strengthen the immune system, promote recovery after exercise, alleviate muscle pain, and achieve better, deeper sleep.
That depends on your goal. If you want to improve your endurance, it's best to take an ice bath before, during, or after your workout. If you want to build strength, we recommend taking an ice bath about 4 hours after your workout. And if you're just looking for general physical and mental health benefits, it's best to step into the bath for some time after your usual training. Research has shown that with 11 minutes of cold water therapy per week, spread over 2 to 3 days, you can achieve significant health benefits.
Generally, cold water therapy is safe for most people. However, people with heart problems, high blood pressure, or other health issues should be cautious and preferably consult a doctor before starting.
Certainly, consider breathing techniques, gradual acclimatization to cold water, and gently moving limbs. All of these can help make the body more comfortable during exposure to cold water.
Start slowly, listen to your body, and experiment with different techniques and temperatures to discover what works best for your needs and comfort.
Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and disinfection, is important to keep the ice bath in optimal condition. Make sure to follow the provided placement and maintenance instructions.
