Opened up the pool earlier this week. Middle son had TJ about 5 weeks ago and was home from college for the day. He talked me into a 3 minute cold plunge - water temp was 42 degrees. I’ve had shoulder stiffness & nagging lower back issues (yes, I’m an OWG). My body felt great the whole day.
Pool won’t be 42 degrees for much longer. Anyone have experience with cold plunge and have recommendations for portable/at home ice baths. Also how effective is this therapy/treatment? Seemed to have benefits, but could be the old placebo effect. TIA
If topic has been discussed before my apologies & GFY, but I did identify as an OWG and I’m lucky to be able to create a thread let alone search a previous thread topic.
