Ice Baths
Ice baths for general well-being and restitution
If you don't know how good it makes you feel, you may not want to consider submerging your body into ice-cold water. But more and more active people have discovered how wonderful you feel after plunging into an ice bath. You can go to the seashore or a lake in the winter, but to make it easy and available all year, order an ice bath pod from Dancover. Our ice bath is a modern, easy-to-use solution with a significant effect. The pod can hold 300 l cold water and has enough room to accommodate one adult, standing or sitting, providing plenty of room to move around. Unique insulation material is used in the body of the pod, so the water will stay cold for longer, making the treatment and recovery even better. Ice baths have been a part of athletes' training and recovery for years. Now, compact pods for ice baths are becoming increasingly popular with the rest of us, all looking for innovative and accessible ways to take good care of ourselves physically or mentally.
The short version: An ice bath makes you feel great and alive!
We are not going into the scientific aspects of ice baths – others can tell you much more about why it makes you feel so good and invigorated. We know that some of the benefits you can get from using an ice bath are potentially reducing muscle soreness, feeling alive and refreshed, sleeping better and feeling less stressed. A simpler advantage is to cool down after training and on hot days. The latter is not that scientific; it is just logical and refreshing. However, as mentioned, athletes have been using ice baths for many years to cool down after a game or other physical activities and exertion. After exercise, the cold water causes your blood vessels to constrict. These vessels rapidly dilate when you get up from the ice bath, potentially easing muscle pain by flushing out metabolic waste products and increasing blood flow. In general, when you exercise, your body will be better at relaxing, and some will experience that regular use of ice baths will improve sleep. Better sleep and a robust nervous system reduce fatigue, strengthen your immune system, and improve mental health. So, in short, making a dip into our ice bath pod a regular part of your routine will make you feel great and improve your overall health if combined with other things.
Hot and cold – a wonderful combination
If you want to go all the way with your home spa or self-care regime, we suggest that you set up one of our elegant saunas in your garden and combine it with an ice bath pod. Most of us have tried the pleasant warmth of a sauna. When our skin gets warmer, the pulse rate increases, and the heart starts pumping faster. You may sweat and feel a wonderful sense of relaxation. At some point, you get so hot that you want to get out and cool down. The best and most effective way is to have an ice bath pod outside, just waiting for you to plunge in. Whether you have spent a long day at work or been working out – this combination of hot and cold can work wonders. Maybe it is a cliche, but you will feel like a new you – or at least a better and more refreshed you. So, take your self-care to new heights with some of our popular wellness products, like an ice bath pod and maybe a barrel sauna in beautiful and durable Nordic spruce.
