Intro to Ice Bath Group Session

Intro to Ice Bath Group Session

with the South Island’s only Level 2 Certified Wim Hof Method Instructor: Laura Warren

A group ice bath session to cover the fundamentals of a safe and effective cold therapy practice.

In this session, she will lead a small group (maximum of 6 people) and you will be:

  • Educated on the science behind cold water immersion therapy
  • Coached on breathing techniques while you immerse in the ice bath
  • Have any questions answered to ensure you leave feeling confident to embrace the ice bath practice on your own
Cold therapy in the form of ice baths has been used for centuries due to the many physical and mental benefits. These range from:
  • Lowering inflammation and pain
  • Supporting post-workout muscle recovery
  • Boosting immune system function
  • Aiding lymphatic drainage for healthy detoxification
Exposing the body to extreme cold on a regular basis also activates brown adipose tissue (BAT), which through a process called thermogenesis, burns free fatty acids and glucose from the bloodstream to generate heat. An increase in BAT improves our metabolic health by increasing glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity.
The ice bath can be viewed as a training ground for life – life is sometimes uncomfortable and most of us want to be good at dealing with life’s stressors so understanding your stress response and how to manage it effectively is empowering!
