Cold plunge or cold therapy, is a training regimen usually following a period of intense exercise in which a substantial part of a human body is immersed in a bath of ice or ice-water for a limited duration.

The potential benefits of ice baths

• Reduces inflammation and swelling. When you sit in cold water, your blood vessels constrict. It is thought that this constriction improves post-workout swelling and inflammation which may cause pain and muscle destruction after activity.
• Soothes sore muscles. There is some initial evidence that, compared to typical rest, cold water immersion can be effective at reducing delayed onset muscle soreness or reduce muscle pain after intense physical activity. This is thought to be due to the pain-relieving effect of cold water.
• May improve performance. Though the evidence is somewhat mixed, most athletes use cold water therapy hoping to improve their performance. There is some promise for improvement in sprint speed and muscle strength, though this is likely to depend on the specific protocol, such as temperature and length of immersion, as well as other factors like nutrition and hydration.
