Why Breathwork & ice baths?
Scientific studies have shown that controlling your breath can help to manage stress and stress-related conditions. (BetterHealth, 2015).
Research shows that cold water immersion (CWI) may improve mental health by increasing endorphin ( the feel good hormone) and norepinephrine levels. (Stanford, longevity, 2024)
CWI may also improve resilience to stress by decreasing cortisol levels. (Stanford, longevity, 2024)
