An Introduction to Cold Water Therapy

  • Clifton Grange Farm Studio Blackpool Road Preston, England United Kingdom (map)

A group experience to introduce you to cold water therapy – focused around mindfulness and resetting the nervous system, along with practical information and safety tips.

You will be welcomed into the group by Caroline Thompson who will gently guide you through the process, including:

  • Acclimatisation - how to enter the water safely

  • Breath control - simple breathing techniques to help you stay in control

  • Basic medical parameters - easy checks for you to do every time you dip to ensure your safety

  • Working within your body's limits

  • Fear release and mindset work - understanding the mind:body connection

  • Basic, easy-to-understand explanations of cold water shock, after-drop and hypothermia and how to avoid them

  • Warm up routine

  • Recovery - how to take care of yourself after each session

Your optional cold water dip will take place individually and completely privately - no need to undress in front of anyone else.

All dips are undertaken in a Lumi ice bath - a portable insulated pod - and you will be assisted into the pod by Caroline, who will also be on hand to guide you through the process (and hand you your towel afterwards).

"experienced my first cold water session today... wow it's so good, felt so nervous & scared going in , Caroline was amazing, I felt so safe & held, she listened to all my mind chattering & reassured me every step of the way. afterwards...... my brain felt so clear and my whole body felt alive."
