What is Cold Plunge Therapy?
Cold Plunge Therapy in Tampa

WHAT IS COLD
PLUNGE THERAPY?

Cold plunge therapy, a practice with roots dating back centuries, involves immersing your body in water maintained at around 50 degrees Fahrenheit or colder for a short duration. This immersive experience triggers a cascade of physiological responses. As you step into the cold water, your blood vessels constrict, conserving heat by redirecting blood from extremities to vital organs. Upon exiting, vessels dilate, ushering oxygenated blood throughout your body. This process is known to enhance circulation, alleviate inflammation, and induce the release of endorphins – natural mood enhancers. Easily integrated into your fitness routine, cold plunge therapy accelerates muscle recovery, alleviates stress, and revitalizes both body and mind.
The Science Behind Cold Plunge

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE COLD PLUNGE EFFECT

Cold plunges kickstart a chain reaction within. Blood vessels constrict and expand to maintain temperature, while adrenaline boosts alertness and heart rate. Endorphins surge, boosting mood and easing pain. Activated brown fat becomes an energy-burning powerhouse, and inflammation goes down to help you recover. It’s all guided by the brain’s temperature control center, the hypothalamus, ensuring a harmonious balance of revitalization and restoration.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Prepare for the initial jolt during a cold plunge – quick breaths, a racing heart, and a cold skin sensation. As your body adjusts, the chill becomes more bearable, and your warmth returns. When you step out, anticipate a surge of energy and enhanced blood flow to your skin. Begin at your own pace and listen to your body’s cues.
pre or post workout

PRE OR POST WORKOUT?

The effectiveness of a cold plunge session before or after a workout varies based on goals. Plunging pre-workout can boost alertness, circulation, and possibly performance. Post-workout, it aids in reducing soreness and inflammation, expediting recovery. Experiment with both to find what suits your preferences and needs best.
1-5 minutes

HOW LONG IS A SESSION?

A typical cold plunge session at our gym lasts anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes. Participants can exit the plunge at any time based on their comfort level.
