START SLOW AND BUILD UP
Start with 1-2 minutes and asses how your body responds.
Aim to add around 30 seconds to 1 minute per session, based on your comfort and tolerance levels.
Progressively work towards 5-10 minutes per session, this time range provides sufficient exposure to the cold and its potential benefits.

Activities during ice bath?
Activities during ice bath?
Meditation and Mindfulness
Cold water stimulates 'fight-or-flight,' raising heart rate and blood pressure, while meditation induces relaxation and mental calmness. Combining both achieves multiple benefits, enhancing relaxation with a focal point during cold exposure. Try guided meditation and wear headphones, especially for beginners.

Tips
Tips
Save money
By using a 12-pack of reusable water bottles, freezing them after each use, therefore avoiding the need to buy ice every time.
Optimizing water usage
Fill your ice to around 70% is a smart and efficient approach. By doing so, you save water, reduce energy consumption, and still enjoy the benefits of an effective ice bath through body displacement.
Long-lasting water purity
Opt for Bromine. Bromine tablets or powder can extend usability up to a month. Unlike Chlorine, Bromine is gentler on the skin, works better in cold water, and requires minimal amounts for effectiveness.
Warning
Warning
While ice baths can be beneficial for some individuals, they may not be suitable for everyone, particularly those with certain medical conditions or sensitivities to cold.
It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating ice baths into your routine.
Moreover, individual responses to cold-water immersion can vary, so experimenting to find what works best for you is crucial.
