Ice Baths - Why Cold Water Therapy?

Ice baths and cold water therapy are proving to be a neccessary part of serious athletic training and rehab programs. Here at Coldtub^® we design and manufacture cryotherapy equipment for professional sport teams, universities, serious athletes and the US military. Our PolarPool^® model ice bath is our most popular model. It is completely self contained, fits through a standard doorway, and plugs into a 110 volt power socket. Stop hauling ice, wasting time and eliminate the risk of infection now!

Benefits of the Polarpool^® by Coldtub^®

1. FASTER RECOVERY

Ice baths and cold water therapy helps remove lactic acid, reduce swelling, and normalize adrenaline production so the body can recover faster.

2. LESS PAIN!

Ice baths and cold water therapy helps reduce Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) by helping reduce the inflammation and muscle spasm that causes it.

3. FASTER INJURY RECOVERY

Using a cold tub or ice bath reduces injury recovery time. Cold therapy is already used to treat acute sport injuries. A Coldtub is much better than an ice pack or cold compress in many ways.
