Ice Cold Bath: Nature's Own Power Source
Share
When we think of relaxation, most often we think of a warm bath or sauna. But have you ever considered an ice cold bath? Although the idea may seem wild at first, cold water treatments can have health benefits.
Studies such as "The Thermal Effects of Water Immersion on Health Outcomes: An Integrative Review" have shown that cold water therapy has a positive effect on both the heart and the nervous system. Cold water stimulates blood circulation, which helps the body to recover from physical exertion faster. In addition, cold water therapy can help improve sleep quality, reduce stress and even relieve symptoms of depression.
