Exploring the Benefits and Precautions of Cold Therapy

Avoid submerging your head during cold therapy to prevent rapid heat loss and reduce the risk of hypothermia. Submerging up to the neck provides benefits while ensuring safety. It is recommended to maintain water temperature below 15 degrees Celsius (59 degrees Fahrenheit) for effective activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Varying the cold exposure temperatures can help activate the sympathetic nervous system and increase exercise for cells without risking overexposure. Extended periods of cold therapy, like sitting in a cold tub for 10 minutes, may be excessive and require further research on optimal duration and temperature thresholds for benefits.
