Chill your way to a Healthier Mind and Body.
Studies have shown that 11 minutes of cold water exposure per week divided between 2 - 3 sessions is an ideal threshold for lasting health benefits.
Cold water immersion reduces inflammation, works to alleviate pain, decreases post-workout recovery times, strengthens the immune system, increases energy and focus, improves sleep, boosts metabolism and combats stress - the perfect tool for improving your mental and physical wellbeing.
Reduces Inflammation
Cold water immersion has been found to reduce inflammation in the body by way of vasoconstriction - blood leaving the organs and skeletal muscle areas and alleviating pain in injured areas of the body.
Immune system support
Being immersed in cold water helps stimulate your body's white blood cells that help fight off sickness. It also causes the lymphatic system to contract, forcing fluid through the lymph nodes to encourage detox benefits throughout the body as well aiding in immunity support.
Increase overall Energy, Focus and Mood
Cold exposure increases your core body temperature making you feel awake afterwards while providing an increase of norepinephrine and dopamine of 2.5x within minutes and lasting for hours. These are powerful molecules that are capable of enhancing focus and attention while elevating your overall mood.
Post-Workout Recovery
Can be a highly effective recovery tool after high-intensity exercise or endurance training for aiding muscle power, recovery time, and decreased muscle soreness.
Boost Metabolism
Cold exposure increases metabolism as the body has to burn calories to increase core body temperature. Converts the body's white fat (energy storage) to beige or brown fat (which are highly metabolically active) that can be beneficial for: Allowing people to feel more comfortable in the cold while triggering further and more sustained increases in metabolism.
Improved Sleep
Through the release of cortisol your body resets the hormones i.e., melatonin which is responsible for sleep which is able to set in when your body shifts to parasympathetic state later in the evening for a deeper night sleep.
