Adding Epsom salt to your ice bath can be beneficial for several reasons. Epsom salts are safe to use and can help increase your magnesium levels, potentially offering health benefits. However, it's important to note that chloride salts, such as table salt or road salt, are not safe for this purpose.

COLD WATER THERAPY HEALTH BENEFITS
A systematic review from 2022 suggests that athletes who perform cold water immersion after high-intensity exercise experience less muscle soreness and improved recovery and power1.Cold water baths reduce inflammation and swelling in muscles by constricting blood vessels and flushing out metabolic waste products like lactic acid. The release of endorphins further helps alleviate muscle discomfort.
A 2017 study showed that many medical professionals consider ice baths useful for basic post-sport recovery. Cold water immersion enhances blood circulation through vasoconstriction followed by vasodilation, efficiently delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues while removing metabolic waste.
A review 2019 review of research papers from Texas A&M University found cold water therapy reduces inflammation by constricting blood vessels and limiting the flow of inflammatory compounds to affected areas. It also stimulates the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines. Regular cold water baths can effectively manage inflammation, promoting faster recovery and overall well-being.
Cold water's numbing effect temporarily blocks pain signals by slowing down nerve conduction velocity. Reduced inflammation and improved circulation also contribute to long-term pain relief. A recent study showed significant and prolonged increases in dopamine when people were in cool water for about an hour, which may contribute to pain relief.
Regular cold water exposure reduces stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms by stimulating the vagus nerve and releasing mood-boosting neurotransmitters like dopamine. A study with young adults found that chest-deep cold water immersion improved mood scores and energy compared to those who did not immerse in cold water.
Cold water immersion triggers hormesis, a beneficial stress response that stimulates the immune system. It increases the production of white blood cells and stimulates the release of cytokines. A study with Finnish winter swimmers reported decreased tension and fatigue, improved mood, and memory compared to non-swimmers after regular cold water immersion.
Recent research shows that cold water exposure activates brown adipose tissue (BAT), which burns calories to generate heat through non-shivering thermogenesis. This increases metabolic rate and supports fat loss. Cold water therapy also improves insulin sensitivity, helping regulate blood sugar levels and prevent excess fat storage.
A scientific paper from 2016 shows cold water immersion stimulates the release of neurotransmitters, increasing alertness, reducing fatigue, and improving mental clarity. It also enhances ATP production, sustaining energy levels throughout the day. Improved circulation delivers oxygen and nutrients to the brain and other organs more efficiently, further supporting cognitive function and overall energy levels.

Elite Tub Spectacle
This tub just looks incredible. It has been tough to find a good tub that is able to insulate temperature well for a low price. Does an excellent job of that and is very affordable.

We bought the new Polar Recovery Elite and we are really pleased with it, extremely sturdy, a really good size. Mike (works for the company) helped us to make our decision on which tub to buy! Good sturdy lid too! Love the company and wouldn’t buy from anywhere else! Thank you

Very and truly impressed with the Elite Tub!
I love it! The Elite tub is built with high quality materials. It keeps the water very cool with the thick inflatable cover. The top side being inflatable keeps the ice bath steady and sturdy. Superb purchase that is aesthetically pleasing to all my friends that come around the house and see it in/out of action!
