Cold Plunge Treatment
A cold plunge is the act of submerging your body in cold water (59 degrees Fahrenheit or less) for 3–6 minutes. This invigorating practice awakens the senses, boosts circulation, and supports muscle recovery, leaving both body and mind refreshed.
What is a Cold Plunge?
A cold plunge is the act of submerging your body in cold water (59 degrees Fahrenheit or less) for 3-6 minutes. Cold plunges are an incredible tool for boosting the health of the body and mind. There are many different ways to cold plunge including, but not limited to, a jump into the ocean, an ice bath, a cold shower.
At La Vista Spa Tierra Encantada we are using a professional circulating cold tub with an Ozone filtration system. Temperature is around (46 F- 8 C).
What are the benefits?
By decreasing your core body temperature, a cold plunge can deliver a wide range of benefits.
Perhaps the most important is building mental resilience and discipline: consistent exposure to cold temperatures allows the mind to get comfortable in a state of discomfort, which will improve its ability to deal with other types of stress.
Teaching the body how to handle extremes, especially within an ice bath starts to teach the body and mind that you are in control. Not only is there pure satisfaction in accomplishing something difficult, but the more you incorporate ice baths into your routine you will find that there are simple practical practices that put you back in control and inevitably teach you how to handle any stress better.
