Collection: Ice Baths

Key benefits include reduced muscle soreness, faster recovery after workouts, improved circulation, strengthened immune response, increased energy, mental resilience, and better sleep quality.

Yes, when done properly and for the recommended duration, cold therapy is generally safe. However, people with cardiovascular issues or certain health conditions should consult a doctor first.

An effective ice bath typically ranges from 10°C to 3°C (50°F to 37°F). Athletes sometimes go even colder, but beginners should start higher and work down gradually.

A typical session lasts 2 to 10 minutes. Start with shorter sessions and gradually increase as your body adapts. Longer is not always better — consistency is key.

Yes, daily cold exposure is generally safe for most people and can yield cumulative benefits, especially when combined with proper hydration and breathing techniques.

Ice baths immerse your body in water, which conducts cold more effectively and deeply. Cryotherapy chambers use cold air (usually -100°C or colder) but with limited depth of cooling.

Yes! This is called contrast therapy, alternating between hot and cold. It boosts circulation, speeds up recovery, and activates your autonomic nervous system.

2–4 times per week is a great starting point,
but daily sessions are safe for most and offer compounding benefits over time.

Cold exposure triggers a dopamine and norepinephrine release in the brain, which boosts mood, focus, and mental clarity. It’s often called a “natural high.”

Cold exposure has shown promise in reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression by regulating the nervous system and increasing neurotransmitters linked to mood.

Yes — repeated cold exposure may activate brown fat (BAT), which burns calories to generate heat, potentially supporting fat loss over time.

Yes, especially if done a few hours before bedtime. It can help lower core body temperature, calm the nervous system, and promote deeper sleep.

You can use a simple tub with ice, or upgrade to a professional cold plunge system with built-in chillers, temperature control, ozone sanitation, and insulation.

Professional units offer precise temperature control, consistent cooling, hygienic filtration, longer-lasting performance, and are far more convenient than manually adding ice every day.

Winthera offers premium cold therapy products with real ice-making capability, UV/ozone disinfection, insulated tubs, and aesthetic finishes — designed for both performance and comfort.

Yes. Cold therapy may not be safe for everyone. You should consult a healthcare professional before doing ice baths, especially if you have:

• Cardiovascular conditions (e.g. heart disease, arrhythmias,
  high blood pressure)
• Raynaud’s disease or cold intolerance
• Respiratory issues like asthma or COPD
• Neurological conditions that affect temperature regulation
• Circulatory disorders or diabetes (especially with neuropathy)
• Open wounds or skin infections
• Pregnancy (precautionary — always speak to a doctor)

If you experience dizziness,
numbness, or chest pain during cold exposure, exit the bath immediately
and seek medical advice.
