Why immerse yourself in cold water?
It may seem like a crazy idea, but there are now numerous scientific studies, as well as millions of people sharing their experience, that attest to the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of cold water immersion. At Theta, we have a 2-person Titan Cold Plunge that we keep at about 48 degrees F. Keep scrolling to learn more!
When you immerse yourself in the cold plunge, you will notice that your mind wants you to get out. You catch your breath, slow it down, and when you finally decide to exit, your mind will reward you for not giving into it in the beginning.
We challenge ourselves for the growth that we gain!
Whether you are looking for physical, mental, or emotional benefits, you will be sure to get all three from just a few minutes a week in our Titan cold plunge. I will list the benefits below, as well as some links to videos and published scientific literature.
Benefits include:
Increases metabolism by stimulating production of mitochondrial-rich tissue
Decreases symptoms of depression and anxiety

Reduces inflammation
Improves circulation
Speeds muscle recovery

Cold-immersion therapy is a growing field of study. There are specific protocols that have been shown to provide specific benefits over other protocols. Whether you are using the plunge for recovery from a marathon, or for increasing power for weight training, the timing of the plunge is very important. Give us a call if you have questions about specific protocols.
Never underestimate the power of an accountability buddy. Two people in the plunge can make the experience easier
and more enjoyable!
