Lumi Recovery Pod Ice Bath

The ultimate portable ice bath

You no longer need to use your old bathtub, a chest freezer, or spend $1000's on a custom ice bath!

The Lumi Recovery Pod Ice Bath is a 'fully-portable' insulated pod, incorporating 3 layers of thermal insulated TPE protection that keeps the water at a steady temperature.

We also include our Lumi Thermo insulated Lid as standard, designed to add a thermal bridge between the ice bath water and the external elements, and as an optional extra, you can include an 'All weather cover' to keep rainwater and other debris out of your ice bath.

In fact, after long-term testing just using regular tap water, we've found you don't even need to add ice! You will benefit from cold water therapy at a steady water temperature of 15°C degrees or below when set up outside.

How long should you stay in cold water?

Cold water therapy works best with the right combination of time and temperature. For example, if you're in a 10°C water, we recommend staying in for no more than 10mins.

Temp to Time Examples

1°C = 1min Submersion
3°C = 3min's Submersion
5°C = 5min's Submersion
10°C = 10min's Submersion

Cold water therapy works best with the right combination of time and temperature. For example, if you're in a 10°C water, we recommend staying in for no more than 10mins.

Warning

ALWAYS consult your doctor before using an ice bath if you have any health issues!

DO NOT USE if you are: - Under 18 years of age, Pregnant, have history of heart disease or high blood pressure, have diabetes, complications such as neuropathy or retinal damage, you wear a pacemaker, history of frostbite, have an open wound, had recent surgery, epilepsy or any other health concerns or risks.

Using an ice bath can dramatically decreases your body core temperature. The immersion in cold water constricts blood vessels and slows the flow of blood around the body, which combined with health complications, can cause your blood pressure to rise and give you a higher chance of cardiac arrest or stroke.

Side effects

The most noticeable side effect of an ice bath is feeling intense cold, but other side effects of staying in an ice bath for too long are: - hypothermia, frostbite, tachycardia (fast heart beat), arrhythmias (abnormal heart beat), allergic and anaphylactic shock.

Our recommendation

Despite the potential side effects and warnings, using an ice bath correctly actually has many health benefits! We will always recommend you begin by spending no more than a few minutes in the ice bath, and slowly working you way up to the recommended time, never push your body beyond its limits.
