COLD PLUNGE therapy
Step into resilience. Cold Plunge Therapy goes beyond recovery. It’s a reset for both body and mind.
Immersion in cold water rapidly constricts blood vessels, triggering powerful physiological responses: reduced metabolic activity, improved blood flow, optimized hormone balance, and activation of your body’s natural defense systems.
Research shows that cold plunging helps minimize exercise-induced muscle damage, decreases inflammation, and accelerates recovery, allowing you to come back stronger, faster, and more resilient for your next workout.
At Elite Nation, Cold Plunge Therapy isn’t just recovery. It’s performance enhancement.
💧 Benefits of Cold Exposure at 55°F
Starting at 55°F is the sweet spot for most beginners — especially women — delivering health benefits while remaining approachable.
BOOSTS CIRCULATION: constricts blood vessels in cold, dilates in heat → improved cardiovascular function
REDUCES INFLAMMATION & SORENESS: speeds recovery from workouts
STRENGTHENS IMMUNITY: activates white blood cells and resilience
ENHANCES MOOD & FOCUS: cold exposure increases dopamine and norepinephrine
IMPROVES STRESS RESPONSE: trains the nervous system to adapt under discomfort
SKIN & METABOLISM BENEFITS: supports collagen production and can increase calorie burn

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What should I wear to my Cold Plunge session?
We recommend a swimsuit or performance-style shorts/sports bra that you’re comfortable getting wet. Bring a change of clothes for after your plunge. Many clients also like to have a warm layer (hoodie, sweatpants, socks) ready for post-session.
Should I bring anything to do during my session?
A plunge is short and powerful—most sessions last between 2–5 minutes—so the focus is on breathing and presence. You're welcome to bring your own headphones if you’d like to listen to calming music or focus tracks.
How does the cold plunge work and is it safe?
Our state-of-the-art cold plunge is designed to maintain precise water temperatures and continuously filter the water through advanced purification systems. The plunge uses built-in ozone and micron filtration, ensuring the water stays exceptionally clean, clear, and safe for every session.
In addition, we partner with a professionally licensed service company that maintains and services the plunge on a weekly basis. This includes water quality testing, cleaning, and filter checks, so you can trust that every time you step in, the plunge is operating at the highest standard of hygiene and safety.
