Benefits of cold water therapy
Reduced Anxiety and stress
Cold water therapy helps reduce anxiety and stress by activating the body's natural relaxation response. Exposure to cold water is thought to trigger the release of endorphins and other neurotransmitters, which can induce feelings of euphoria and calmness.
Stronger immune system
One way that cold water therapy may support the immune system is by increasing the production of white blood cells, which are an important part of the immune system's response to pathogens. Exposure to cold water or ice has been shown to stimulate the production of white blood cells
Reduces inflammation
When the body is exposed to cold water, the blood vessels constrict, which slows down blood flow and reduces inflammation in the affected area. The cold water also lowers the metabolic rate of cells, which decreases the production of inflammatory molecules. Additionally, cold water therapy can help reduce the production of cytokines, which are proteins that promote inflammation.
Helps with weight loss
When the body is exposed to cold temperatures, it must work harder to maintain its core temperature, which can cause an increase in metabolic rate and calorie burn. In addition, studies show that cold water exposure may stimulate the production of brown adipose tissue, a type of fat that burns calories to generate heat.

How Does It Work?
One of the primary ways that cold water therapy works is by triggering a physiological response known as vasoconstriction. When the body is exposed to cold water, blood vessels in the skin and other peripheral tissues constrict, which helps to reduce blood flow and heat loss from the body. This helps to increase blood flow to the internal organs and other core tissues, which can improve circulation, boost immune function, and reduce inflammation.
