Kältetherapie & Eisbaden
Cold therapy and ice bathing are now used in medicine in competitive sports worldwide and are becoming increasingly popular.
Science is also constantly providing new data on the effects of cold in the form of air, water and stationary and mobile high-tech equipment.
I've made this topic a focus on my podcast and blog, and I've spent a lot of time researching and doing hands-on trials with my team.
Questions that wanted to have answered by this work:
- Is there a history of cold therapy? How long has it been used by humans?
- Cold is said to have a positive effect in terms of mental health and to have an influence on our satisfaction. Above all, it is supposed to make us resilient. Is that really true?
- Cooling before and during training? Does cold increase or decrease athletic performance?
- Does cold and ice bathing actually support regeneration and recovery?
- Why don't I get sick from cold?
- What is the difference between ice bathing and ice swimming?
- How do we apply cold ideally?
- How do I slowly get used to the cold?
- Why don't I get sick from cold?
- Which is better? Enjoying the cold in nature, for example in a lake, or better in the shower at home?
- There is a persistent myth that cold stimulates the metabolism and fat burning. That sounds too good to be true, right?
- Do cold applications have a medical effect. One hears a lot about strengthening the cardiovascular and immune systems. Even the hormonal balance and the thyroid gland are said to benefit. How should cold help here?
I got to the bottom of these and many other questions about cold therapy.
I researched the current study situation with my team and was able to answer all questions.
But of course, make yourself a picture!
