An ice bath, despite risks, has benefits. Watch this video to know more! The Wim Hof Method is about inner power, meditation, control your body’s immune system and temperature, breathing techniques, visualizations, and physical exercises. It’s also scientifically proven to influence the Autonomic Nervous System and the innate immune response as it is an incredibly powerful meditation technique.
Health Benefits of Ice Baths
Frequent exposure to cold is linked to some different health benefits. For example, scientists have found evidence that exposure to cold speeds up metabolism. Another benefit of exposing your body to cold is that it reduces inflammation, swelling and sore muscles. Therefore, many athletes use ice baths and other types of exposure to cold to speed up recovery after physical exercise. Furthermore, cold body therapy is also linked to improved quality of sleep, focus and strengthen the immune response.
Cold is an important component of the Wim Hof Method, which is applied by cold showers and ice baths. Participants of the WHM offer testimonies like higher energy levels and relief from symptoms caused by autoimmune diseases.
Cold immersion may not be like boosting your physical capabilities, but some evidence suggests that your system might be having powerful and transformative health effects.
Statistics About Ice Baths
Data suggest that cold exposure help people lose weight and counteract some effects of type 2 diabetes. Research has found that both cold exposure and breathing techniques can help people gain some control over their immune system, which was previously thought to be completely involuntary. There are some fitness professionals think that immersing yourself in cold — especially in a way that makes you feel the “shock” of a sudden temperature change — can do more.
Hof argues that by learning to control our response to the cold can train our bodies to better cope with physical stress. Because it can strengthen our circulatory system in ways that might have other better effects on our cardiovascular health. He believes that cold exposure can help us gain control over our autonomic nervous system which is an involuntary physical reaction we have that can to keep us warm in the cold. If Hof is right, “environmental exposure” could be an essential third means of fitness other than exercise and diet.
