Elevated Energy

We all have our own ways of waking up; a workout, a cold brew, and so on. If you are looking for a new method to add to that list, using a cold tub may be just the answer. Many people look to cold tubs for a boost in energy!

Immune Support

Cold underwater compression stimulates leukocytes, which are the white blood cells that help us fight off sicknesses. Cold water also causes the lymphatic system to contract, forcing fluid through the lymph nodes. This process aids in detoxing the body and strengthening your immune system. A study has shown to substantially lower upper respiratory tract infections.

Boosted Mood, Momentum, Enhanced Recovery and Performance

Coldtubs have shown the ability increase your baseline dopamine. Dopamine is the molecule in our brain and body that is linked to motivation. According to Dr. Andrew Huberman dopamine can enhance our depth of focus and lower our threshold for taking action towards our specific goals. Coldtub benefits extend beyond the mental and chemical aspects of your body too. Sports medicine has utilized cold water therapy for years, to help the active recovery of your muscles. Researchers have known for a while that it connects to our daily energy. In particular, there is lots of evidence that hormone inbalance can contribute to depression, meaning that cold water might help to reduce depression and improve overall mood! Don’t take our word for it though, just ask anyone who has ever used a COLDTUB™!

Expect Pain Relief, Stress Relief, and Better Sleep

Ice baths and cold water therapy are proving to be a necessary part of serious athletic training and recovery programs. Here at COLDTUB™ we design and manufacture cryotherapy equipment for professional sport teams, universities, serious athletes, the US military, wellness centers, gyms, and anyone wanting to improve their way of life.

Like any type of therapy, detail is key. Precise temperature control is essential when prescribing specific therapy. COLDTUB™ products can be cooled to 35°F (1.6 C) degrees with a touch of a button. They can be set and maintained within +/- 2 degrees. Compare that to our tests of traditional icebath therapy where the temperature typically ranges from 58°F degrees to as low 32.5°F degrees (frost-bite risk).

How Long to COLDTUB™

People use ice baths for many different reasons. Some use it for the reduction of lactic acid after a tough workout, others use it as a early morning wakeup, and some even use it just for it's skin tightening benefits. Start your journey and find your reason!

1:

First thing in the morning or before/after training, have your ice bath ready to go.

2:

Stay warm before entering the ice bath. Double up on clothing while you wait, (consider staying warm with a hat and even mittens!). We don’t want you to cool down before using the ice bath.

3:

Step into the ice bath, focus on your breathing as the cold water will want to make you shorten your breaths. It is important to relax your respiratory system and try to lengthen your breaths as much as possible.

4:

Sit in the ice bath for approximately 1-10 minutes. Beginners try with 1 minute and increase from there. Longer times will help with more muscle recovery.

5:

Sit upright and stretch your legs out in front of you allowing any swelling of the joints to be reduced.

6:

When you are ready, slide out of the ice bath. Dry yourself off with a towel.

7:

Grab a bite to eat (some healthy sandwiches are perfect) and begin a post-excercise stretch. Some people prefer to do their stretch before using the ice bath, this is entirely up to you and you should try both ways to find out what gives you the best result.

8:

Enjoy the benefits!
