Dunk me into cold water on an average day, and I’ll probably tell you where to go — in a very impolite way. But apparently, I’m into the cold water therapy trend these days, given that I took a LUMI Therapy Pod ice bath under my wing, blew it up and stuck it in my parent's backyard with little explanation.
Cold water immersion is a massive trend right now, (kind of) thanks to the master Wim Hof and his Wim Hof Method. Although there’s quite limited long-term evidence on its benefits, some research — like this study by the European Journal of Applied Physiology — has shown that it could “likely” reduce fatigue and soreness and improve recovery.
