Always ICE Cold
Our new ThermoDome® provides unique and improved thermal insulation, keeping water cold and fresh for longer.
The unique Dome Design also ensures that rainwater does not collect on top of the All Weather Cover.
Taking an ice bath is known for its powerful effect on speeding up muscle recovery and reducing muscle soreness and stiffness. An ice bath helps both athletes and regular exercisers recover faster and perform better.
It is the ultimate recovery tool.
Perhaps one of the most immediate effects of an ice bath is the increase in energy and vitality. The exposure to cold stimulates the body into action, often resulting in a natural 'high' after a cold plunge.
There is nothing else that can naturally give you more focus.
The amount of ice you need depends on the season. In winter, it is often the case that you do not need to add any ice. However, if you really want to cool down to 5-3 degrees, you may need to add about 5 kg of ice.
In summer this is of course different and up to 20 kg of ice may be needed to bring the water to a pleasantly cold temperature.
Our improved insulation keeps water colder longer, so you'll need to add less ice next time.
Our Recovery POD is designed to withstand weather and UV rays, making it perfect for outdoor use, even in freezing temperatures. The insulation layer significantly slows down the freezing of the water. However, we recommend stirring the water at least once a day to prevent it from freezing completely.
Always keep the lid on the Recovery POD when not in use to prevent dirt or other materials from falling in!
We recommend changing the water twice a week in winter and once a week in summer, if you do not use additives.
When changing the water, we recommend cleaning the inside of the Recovery POD with warm, soapy water to prolong the life of the next refill.
If you want to keep your ice bath hygienic for longer, we recommend using our specially designed ozone generator from The Plunge, which helps keep the water clean and clear for longer.
Our Recovery POD is specially designed to comfortably fit anyone, even up to 6 feet 10 inches tall. Our ice baths are larger in size and made wider, with a generous volume that provides more comfort than most other brands on the market.
Yes, the Recovery POD comes with not one, but two lids for optimal use and protection. Additionally, there are a ton of standard accessories included, such as a carrying case, storage bag, and many more essential accessories you need for a complete experience.
Depending on which package you choose—Essential, Pro, or Premium—you’ll gain access to additional accessories tailored to your specific needs and ease of use.
To experience the benefits of cold therapy, we recommend keeping the water below 15°C and staying in the ice bath for 3-5 minutes. This may vary from person to person, but experience has shown that these guidelines are most effective for optimal results.
We go into this in more detail in our Cold Water Therapy e-book, where you can find all the information. You will receive this e-book as standard with every ice bath you purchase.
The difference between the packages is mainly in the accessories you get:
• Essential Package: This package includes the Cold Water Therapy e-book.
• Pro package: In addition to the Cold Water Therapy e-book, you will also receive the Breathing e-book and ice molds to make your own ice.
• Premium Package: This is the ultimate all-in-one package, with everything you need for a complete experience. It includes everything from the Pro Package, plus an extra non-slip mat that you can use for both the ice bath and the sauna.
This way you can choose which package best suits your needs and desired experience.
Yes, The Plunge ice baths are quick and easy to clean. You can simply pour out the water and wipe down the inside with a cloth before refilling with clean water. We recommend changing the water weekly, but frequency may vary depending on factors such as showering before use and how often you use the ice bath.
Setting up a Recovery POD takes less than three minutes. It’s super easy to set up, take down, and transport. Once your kit arrives, all you need to do is unfold the POD, attach the legs, and inflate the rim. Then you can fill it with cold water and add ice for the optimal experience.
We recommend placing your ice bath outside on a flat surface, such as grass or rocks. The surface does not have to be perfectly flat; a slight slope is no problem, as our ice baths are designed to remain stable, even on slightly sloping surfaces.
Outdoor installation also helps maintain optimal water temperature for a better cold water therapy experience.
Cold therapy, such as ice baths, offers a wide range of physical and mental benefits. At The Plunge, we believe in making effective recovery methods accessible and promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Cold therapy helps your body recover by reducing muscle soreness, inflammation and swelling after exercise and improving your circulation. It can boost your immune system and acts as a natural pain reliever.
Additionally, cold therapy helps increase your mental resilience by exposing you to controlled stress, which helps you better cope with daily stresses. It increases your energy, improves your sleep, and contributes to a positive mood—everything you need for a healthy, balanced life.
Yes, absolutely! We are so confident in the quality of our product that we offer a 100-day money back guarantee.
You may return the product in a saleable condition within this period for a full refund, excluding return shipping costs.
