Health Benefits
With powerful and long-lasting health benefits that will take you by surprise, the benefits of our cedar ice bath must be experienced to be believed. Find the natural support you need to enhance your everyday health and wellness with our state-of-the-art cold bath experience in Melbourne. With strategically designed baths that provide natural sources of therapeutic treatments, you’ll find the tools you need to improve your performance, speed up your recovery, and boost your overall health and resilience.
Weight loss
With every plunge, your metabolism is boosted into action. Cold exposure pushes your body to work harder to maintain its core temperature, increasing its caloric burn rate by extension. Cold plunge therapy can be a highly complementary natural tool in your weight loss journey, increasing your ability to effectively, safely, and sustainably burn calories.
Recovery
Loved by elite athletes for its cold plunge recovery benefits, an ice bath immersion results in accelerated muscle recovery. With reductions to inflammation and swelling as a result of exposure to extreme cold temperatures, you can find natural alleviation for sore muscles after intense workouts or punishing physical activities. Regular cold plunges can also serve to reduce the risk of future injuries, improving blood circulation activity and reducing muscle fatigue so you’re able to perform at your best – and then push your performance further.
Mental health
Plunge into the cold bath and experience a rush of endorphins, gaining the benefits of your body’s natural mood enhancers as a result of this targeted cold exposure. Experience a wide range of mental health benefits with regular cold plunges, including stress reduction, decreases to anxiety levels, mood boosts, and greater resilience for the demands of daily life.
Immune health
With regular cold baths serving to improve immune system functionality, taking the plunge may be the best way to support your health and wellness throughout the challenging colder months. Cold exposure triggers more production of white blood cells, which provide the first line of defense when it comes to fighting infections and illnesses. This is a powerful, natural way to strengthen your body’s protective mechanisms.
Enhanced sleep
Struggling to get the quality and quantity of sleep you need each night? Cold therapy may be your new best friend. Improve the quality of your sleep through cold exposure’s lowering of your core body temperature, sending the signal to your body that it’s time to wind down and rest. You’ll experience deeper, more restful sleep after a plunge, waking up more refreshed and ready for the day ahead.
Endurance and resilience
If you’re looking to grow your mental and physical endurance and resilience, there’s no better place to do so than in our cedar ice bath. The regular practice of enduring freezing temperatures can have a significant impact on your overall resilience, increasing your ability to meet and manage physical and mental challenges. To improve your performance at work, in sports, and at home, it’s time to take the plunge.
How to Take an Ice Bath
Ready for your first plunge? Here’s what you need to know to make the most of this exhilarating and rewarding natural therapeutic experience.
First, choose whether or not you’re going to experience a solo session or take the plunge with a friend. At ReGen Wellness, you can experience either a private session in our cedar bath, or share the private plunge room with one other person.
We recommend that you enter the bath slowly, allowing your body to adjust little by little to the cold temperature. By focusing on your breathing, you can stay calm and present as your body gets used to the initial cold water shock.
Once you’ve completed it, take your time warming back up. A hot shower will reduce the benefits of the cold exposure you’ve just worked so hard for, so opt for a towel and warm clothes to slowly bring your body back to its regular temperature.
Cold Plunge Techniques
Our cedar ice bath plunge experience supports a wide range of cold soak techniques. Different approaches to the cold exposure can result in different benefits, and can be adapted to meet your personal health goals and individual preferences.
These include:
• Breathing exercises – by incorporating deep breathing techniques, you can manage not only the initial shock of the cold during your cold plunge, but can also improve your tolerance.
• Incorporating compression gear – for those looking to reduce inflammation and benefit from faster recovery, compression garments can be worn after your plunge to keep building on the benefits received during your session.
• Active movement – by moving your limbs during your plunge, you can help to improve your blood circulation even further, distributing the cold across your body and gaining more benefits from this powerful natural therapy.
Precautions and Considerations
Cold bath treatments are powerful natural sources of health and wellness benefits, but in order to enjoy them to their fullest, it’s important to understand key safety precautions and considerations. These include:
• Consulting a healthcare professional. If you have a history of chronic health conditions, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional to make sure this form of treatment is safe for you.
• Monitoring your body. If you experience excessive discomfort, dizziness, or numbness, we advise you to step out of the cold bath immediately – don’t push yourself beyond your limits.
• Warming up slowly. Rather than taking that tempting hot shower, dry off and opt for warm clothing to slowly but surely warm up after your cold plunge.
• Remaining hydrated. As cold exposure can mask dehydration, it’s crucial to drink water before and after your session to ensure your hydration levels are maintained.
