Collection: Cold Plunges(4)

Most people work between three and ten degrees. Beginners start nearer ten and keep it short, regulars go lower. An integrated chiller holds your chosen temperature year-round, so you are not hauling bags of ice out every morning.

One to three minutes suits most people, and consistency matters far more than duration. Get out before you start shivering hard, warm up gradually afterwards, and do not plunge alone while you are still new to it.

Yes, every plunge in this collection is supplied with a chiller, so the water sits at your set temperature without ice. It also keeps the water filtered and circulating, which means far less draining and refilling than an unchilled tub.

After. The traditional cycle is heat, then cold, then rest, repeated two or three times. Going in cold first tightens everything up and blunts the session. Site the plunge beside the sauna so the switch takes seconds, not minutes.

The barrel plunges have a rounded profile that sits naturally in a garden with timber saunas already in it, and they take up very little ground. The cube squares the footprint off, which suits decking, a wall or a modern extension.
