Cold water therapy, also known as cold hydrotherapy or cold immersion therapy, involves exposing the body to cold water or applying cold water to the body for therapeutic purposes. This can be done in a variety of ways, such as taking a cold shower, immersing oneself in a cold bath or pool, or applying ice packs to specific areas of the body.
The goal of cold water therapy is to expose the body to cold temperatures for a short period of time in order to stimulate various health benefits. The cold water can help reduce inflammation, improve circulation, reduce pain, and boost immune function, among other potential benefits.
