Cold Therapy Chamber
How Does it Work:
Set Temperature: 4 Degrees
Each Booking gives you 2hrs to bounce in & out of the Chamber.
You can opt to go between the Sauna, or Exercise or a cheeky Sun Bake to soak up some Vitamin D!
We recommend you go from Hot to Cold. Three rotations is optimal.
Finishing on Cold!Stay in for minimum 4 mins to get the best Time vs Benefits Ratio.
We recommend aiming for 7 - 11 mins to get Optimal Benefits.
Decreased inflammation
If you’re feeling sore, achy or in pain, cold therapy can help lessen inflammation. Exposure to cold causes blood vessels to constrict, reducing blood flow to injured areas, which helps reduce swelling and inflammation.
Improved metabolism and weight loss
Shiveringly cold temperatures might just help you rev up your metabolism. Brown fat cells, when exposed to cold, can generate heat by burning fat. Brown fat cells are mostly located around the neck and shoulders. This increased calorie burning may even help with weight loss.
Why do we use dry cold therapy?
It’s true that you can get much colder in a circulating iced water bath. However this is often too much for people so you don’t do it as often, or at all. Having a milder approach gives all the same benefits. It takes away a lot of the anxiety around cold therapy which helps stabilise your hormones.
You need to stay in a little longer. But this method offers all the same benefits plus the added benefit of giving you an opportunity to practice your breathing & keep your body + mind calm. With each session, your ability to withstand discomfort grows using neuroplasticity. Neuroscience will also say this is great for your self-esteem as you make continuous achievable goals.
Better mood and mental clarity
While cold therapy might not feel immediately pleasurable to your skin, it can actually give you a mood boost. Cold helps with mood by stimulating dopamine production in the brain, a neurotransmitter that is associated with pleasure.
Improved sleep
You might’ve heard that taking a bath before bed helps you relax – but a cold shower could be even better for sound sleep. Taking a cold shower right before bed helps to lower your core body temperature, which makes falling asleep easier. It’s also recommended to lower the temperature in your bedroom to between 18-19 degrees.
Enhanced recovery from exercise
It might sound counter-intuitive, but new research suggests that cold therapy can improve recovery from exercise when practiced a few hours after your workout rather than right away. The inflammation that’s caused by your workout is actually a good thing – that’s how your muscles become stronger and more resilient.
So, time your ice bath or other cold therapy for a while after your workout, and you could recover more easily.
