How Ice Bath Therapy Can Boost Recovery and Resilience
What Is Ice Bath Therapy?
Ice bath therapy, also known as cold water immersion, involves submerging the body in cold water for a short period. At Avalon Health & Wellness, we offer guided ice bath sessions designed to enhance recovery and build resilience.
The Benefits of Ice Bath Therapy
1. Reduced Inflammation
Cold water reduces blood flow to inflamed areas, helping to decrease swelling and alleviate pain.
2. Faster Muscle Recovery
After intense exercise, ice baths can help flush out lactic acid and reduce soreness, speeding up recovery.
3. Mental Resilience
The challenge of enduring cold temperatures builds mental toughness and resilience, leaving you feeling empowered and invigorated.
4. Boosted Circulation
After leaving the ice bath, blood flow increases as your body warms up, promoting healing and revitalisation.
How to Prepare for Your Ice Bath Session
Breathe Deeply: Focus on slow, controlled breaths to help your body adapt to the cold.
Start Small: Begin with shorter durations and gradually increase your time in the water.
Listen to Your Body: If you feel too uncomfortable, it’s okay to step out and try again later.
