WARNINGS
WARNINGS
It is important to consult with a doctor before trying ice bath therapy if you have any health issues.
This therapy is not recommended for individuals under 18 years of age, pregnant women, those with a history of heart disease or high blood pressure, diabetes, complications such as neuropathy or retinal damage, those who wear a pacemaker, have a history of frostbite, open wounds, recent surgery, epilepsy, or any other health concerns.
Ice bath therapy can lower your body temperature, which can cause blood vessels to constrict and slow the flow of blood, which combined with health issues can lead to elevated blood pressure and increase the risk of cardiac arrest or stroke.
Common side effects of ice bath therapy include intense cold, hypothermia, frostbite, fast heart rate, abnormal heart beat, allergic reactions, and anaphylactic shock.
It is recommended to start with just a few minutes in the ice bath and gradually increase the time, never pushing the body beyond its limits.
Despite the warnings and potential side effects, correctly using an ice bath can provide many health benefits.
