Cold Plunge
Below is the science backing the health benefits of cold plunges.
The science behind cold plunge therapy
Cold plunge therapy works by exposing your body to controlled, low-temperature water, triggering powerful physiological responses designed to enhance resilience, recovery, and overall performance.
Cardiovascular Response
When you enter cold water, your blood vessels constrict, forcing blood toward your core to protect vital organs. This response increases circulation efficiency and strengthens your cardiovascular system over time.
Nervous System Activation
Cold exposure activates the sympathetic nervous system, increasing the release of norepinephrine — a neurotransmitter linked to improved focus, elevated mood, reduced inflammation, and heightened alertness.
Metabolic Boost
Cold plunging stimulates brown adipose tissue, a metabolic type of fat that burns energy to produce heat, supporting improved metabolism and energy regulation.
Cold plunging doesn't just cool the body.
It conditions the system that carries you through life: your nervous system, metabolism, and resilience.
