What is Cold Plunge Therapy?
The practice of submerging your body in cold water (around 50°) for a short period of time. Cold Plunging can help quicken recovery, improve circulation, aid in weight loss, and increase energy.
Cold Plunging is:
Stepping into water cold enough to make you inhale sharply at first.
Waiting about 20–30 seconds for your body to settle and your breathing to level out
Feeling your legs and torso adjust while your hands and feet stay the coldest.
Keeping your focus on steady breathing so you don’t tense up.
Noticing the cold become more tolerable as your body adapts.
Staying aware of the timer so you don’t overdo it.
Getting out once you’ve hit your time and your skin feels numb on the surface.
Drying off and warming up right away as your body starts to shiver.
Feeling more awake and clear-headed within a few minutes of finishing.
