I concede a icebath would be great upgrade though as I do them weekly :-)
Need some positivity tonight - fingers crossed.
Do you find they do actually 'shock' the body into healing itself? Almost like an emergency recovery reboot? There must be a reason why the players take ice baths.
ie. You find they make you feel better?
I guess you'd have to build up a tolerance to that eg. 30 sec, 1 min, 5 mins.
Just going into the swimming pool (and when the water level gets up to your crotch...) "******** hell..." (And I'm not one for swearing...)
SA.
They do not shock the body into healing itself directly; an ice bath is beneficial for athletes because it stops the build up of lactic acid, very quickly, and reduces muscle soreness.
They are also very good for the central nervous system and help build up the bodies immune cells, which in turn helps with the healing process.
It can be pretty uncomfortable sat in one, but you feel fantastic afterwards.
