Reduce Muscle & Joint Inflammation
Inflammation causes pain. Cold Plunging has been shown to release norepinephrine which suppresses inflammation, thus, reducing your pain

Increases Metabolism & Aids in Weight Loss
Cold exposure forces your body to rev up its metabolism to get the needed energy for heat generation

Immune System Boost
Ice baths help boost the white blood cell count by forcing the body to react to changing conditions

Improved Sleep & Recovery
When you begin to control your response to stress, you'll likely find that you can also control intentional relaxation and sleep

Stimulates Vagus Nerve
Exposing your body to acute cold conditions increases stimulation of the vagus nerve. While your body adjusts to the cold sympathetic response declines while parasympathetic activity increases. This leads to long term improvements in mood, pain management, wellbeing and resilience

Improved Circulation & Lymphatic drainage
When we enter the cold water our vessels constrict and muscles contract bringing our blood flow to our vital organs. After leaving the cold our vessel dilate and provides our lymphatic system a boost helping to get waste products out of the body

Skin Rejuvenation
When you sweat the movement of fluid to the skin delivers mineral-rich nutrients and helps to fill spaces around the cells reducing the appears of fine lines and wrinkles

Immune System Boost
German medical research shows that saunas are able to significantly reduce the incidences of colds and flu. Other studies show that regular sauna bathing leads to a 30% LESS chance of getting a cold or influenza

Decreased Muscle Pain
Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscle so they recover faster.

Relaxation & Better Sleep
Sauna can help provide a deeper, more relaxed sleep, relief of chronic tension and chronic fatigue issues, most likely due to a release of endorphins from the sauna
