  • ICE BATHS
  • SAUNAS

Using an ice bath tub for cold water immersion is hands down the best thing you can do for your health.

Performance / Recovery

Soothe muscle soreness and inflammation in order for you to recover much faster.

Better Sleep

Enhances sleep quality by calming the nervous system and reducing stress.

Elevated Energy

Increases energy levels by activating the body's natural recovery processes.

Boost Mood

Ice baths raises your baseline dopamine levels, so you're likely to experience elevated mood in your day to day.

Immune Support

Strengthens immune response, helping to fight off illnesses.

Stress / Anxiety Relief

Cold water therapy has been shown to decrease the stress hormone cortisol. This study found that regular ice baths helped massively reduce anxiety and improve the mood of participants.

Recovery / Performance

Cold plunge benefits extend beyond the mental and chemical aspects of your body. Sports medicine has utilized cold water therapy for years to help with the active recovery of your muscles.

Elevated Energy

If you're looking to kickstart your morning or need an afternoon pick-me-up, cold plunging is an incredible way to boost your daily energy. Not only is the icy water rejuvenating, but it also triggers the release of healthy stress hormones that promote alertness. A 2 minute ice bath feels like drinking 5 cups of coffee (just without the jitters).

Better Sleep
  • When you dip into an ice bath, your body triggers the autonomic nervous system - the system that controls your response to stress.
  • When you begin to control your response to stress, you'll likely find that you begin to control your relaxation and sleep.
  • In short it improves sleep by lowering body temperature, reducing stress hormones, boosting mood-enhancing neurotransmitters, and activating the relaxation-focused parasympathetic nervous system.
Boosted Mood
  • Researchers have known for a while that plunging connects to our daily energy. In particular, there is lots of evidence that hormone imbalance can contribute to depression, meaning that a cold plunge might help to reduce depression and improve overall mood.
  • The release of dopamine in the brain during ice baths also further gives you that "happy" feeling which lasts for hours. Additionally, ice baths raises your baseline dopamine levels, so you're likely to experience elevated mood in your day to day.
Stress Relief

Cold water therapy has been shown to be an effective supplemental treatment for stress relief by decreasing the stress hormone cortisol. This study found that regular cold showers and ice baths helped reduce anxiety and improve the mood of participants.

Pain Relief

Consistent ice baths have been shown to generate up to 5x the baseline amount of hormones and neurotransmitters found in the body and brain that alleviate stress. This neurotransmitter can dramatically reduce inflammation and help with chronic pain.

Weight Loss

Cold water immersion also activates brown fat — tissue that helps keep the body warm and helps it control blood sugar and insulin levels. It also helps the body burn calories, which has lead to studies showing significant evidence that cold water immersion is an effective way to lose weight and burn calories.

Experience a natural high feeling like no other, while getting all these amazing health benefits. Heat therapy is hands down the best thing you can do for your health.

Full Body Detox

Sweat out all the bad toxins, as your body flushes them out through the skin.

If space and, more importantly, your budget are limited, the Ice Pod boasts next-gen ice bath tech at a fraction of the cost of most alternatives. It’s insulated and sturdy enough for both indoor and outdoor use.

Upgraded from another companies cheaper pod and immediately noticed a different in both quality and lay out.  The new one is bigger and I absolutely love the chiller, that is a game changer and worth every penny

Game changer! I've used the ice pod every day since i got it. only need to add ice every 3-4 days as water stays super cold even though it's summer here (got the PRO 2.0 version with extra insulation).

I got the ice bath, chiller, and cover set. They are all incredible! Water is consistently at 50F (give or take 1F) and it's quiet, clean, and was easy to set up. Fit perfectly in my outdoor gym, and have used it every day so far. Really glad I got it; so far completely worth it!

Worth every penny! No longer worry about buying bags of ice and can just jump in every morning. Definitely recommend for anyone who lives in a warmer area or doesn’t want to spend the time and money buying bags of ice.

I got this as a birthday gift for my husband who has daily back pain (had back surgery years ago). I noticed him taking pain reliever daily, and thought, “we have to try something else”. He LOVES it and has used it at least once daily since setting it up, AND has skipped the pain reliever. We are so grateful not only for the pain relief, but for the other effects- mood boost, more energy, better sleep. I am expecting, but can’t wait til I can jump in!

Out of the many benefits cold therapy has, my favorite is the mental discipline it takes and the changes it can have on how you handle stress. I’m so glad I finally purchased The Ice Pod, my body and mind feels amazing every day!

I have been eyeing the IcePod for so long and I finally went for it. I thought I’d be the only one super excited about it but my entire family has been utilizing and benefiting from it. We have a 13 year old soccer player and 10 year old gymnast. My husband and I are both active as well. The muscle recovery, energy & mood boost, and stress reduction benefits have been so incredible in the short amount of time we’ve used it. My one and only complaint is that the water hasn’t stayed cool in the summer heat. We really want the water chiller, but weren’t really prepared to spend $$$ on that just yet. It was extremely easy to set up, fill up, empty, and use. 10/10 would recommend for affordability and ease of use.

As someone who suffers from arthritis, joint problems, back pain, and general inflammation, my Ice Pod has been a revelation. Not only does it make me feel refreshed and more clear-headed when I plunge, but my body feels younger and stronger. The Pod is well built, easy to transport, and overall an incredible value.
