Precautions for using an ice bath bathtub

2025-03-18

The precautions for using an ice bath mainly include the following points:

Temperature control: The water temperature of the ice bath should be maintained between 15 degrees and 18 degrees. It is recommended to start at 18 degrees when using it for the first time and gradually adjust before lowering the temperature. Low water temperature may cause frostbite or other health problems.

Soaking area: It is recommended to start soaking from the waist and slowly soak the upper body after adapting to the low temperature.

Soaking time: Most people soak for 5 to 15 minutes, and those who try it for the first time can control it within 5 to 8 minutes. If you feel uncomfortable, you should immediately leave the bathtub or adjust the water temperature.

Warm up after ice bath: After taking an ice bath, muscles will become tense and body temperature will be low. You should immediately dry your body and wear warm clothes. You can have a cup of hot water within half an hour to an hour after taking an ice bath, or raise the temperature of the bathtub for a hot bath.

Gradual adaptation: When taking an ice bath for the first time, one should gradually adapt, starting from a higher temperature and a shorter time, gradually extending the time and decreasing the temperature.

Safety measures: Before entering the bathtub, ensure that it is stable and free from damage or cracks. Anti slip pads can be placed at the bottom of the bathtub to increase friction and prevent slipping. When alone, do not lock the bathroom door to prevent others from being unable to rescue in case of an emergency.
