Imagine you're sliding across the icy mountainous path up there.
And suddenly you come across a flat sheet of ice. It's turquoise blue and see through. There's clearly a giant lake underneath.
You're adventurous, so you step on the surface as to walk normally.
But you know it's more slippery than usual, so you brace yourself.
Suddenly, a shadow from below is appearing and disappearing. Circling in on you with every step you take.
Now you might have nerves of steel, but have you ever been ambushed by a killer whale? And you're trespassing? Possibly disturbing his sleep or giving him the munchies?
What to do now... you pick up the pace and try to move on from the lake. You've got to move on.
Or you just stay there and become a family meal. They're getting hungrier by the minute.
So, of course you choose the nonchalant way. You just keep waling, a little bit faster, but the whale can't tell you're panicking. You look unbothered.
Oops, an ice shard falling from a meteorite passing by completely shatters the lake surface, barely missing you but completely annihilating the killer whale and his family waiting downstairs.
Phew, you think, at least I won't be dinner.
The only thing is, you're now in the water yourself, after the entire lake surface ice collapsed.
This ain't no human controlled suitable temperature water. It's literally FREEZING!
Now, there are two ways to deal with this. The challenger is not a killer whale no more, it's hypothermia.
You've been to Body Recovery Zone for an ice bath, so you don't worry;
You freeze like a popsicle and die.
Since number 1 applies to you, you even start falling asleep in the lake because you're getting so warm it reminds you of home.
Only 2 hours later you get out because you're feeling the munchies. Luckily if you fancy, there is fresh frozen whale meat floating around.
This is what happens when you go for an ice bath once, then you love it, then you come back for more.
All of a sudden, you're deep into the plunge. And your body, by proxy, becomes highly resistant to very cold temperatures.
So much so that during the winter, the radiators turn YOU on to get the home heated.
The temperature shocks don't affect you anymore.
Temperature induced shock will be the topic of the upcoming email in our newsletter, so if you'd like to learn more about the beneficial effects of shock therapy for your body and mind, sign up to our email list on our website homepage.
