Freeze Isbad™

Ice baths work best with the right combination of time and temperature. For example, if you are in 10°C cold water, we recommend no more than 10 minutes.

Temp to time examples

• 1°C = 1 minute bath
• 3°C = 3 minute bath
• 5 °C = 5 minute bath
• 10 °C = 10 minute bath

Yes, you can use both regular ice and ice packs, depending on your preference.

Regular ice : You can use ice from the freezer or ice packs from the store. Regular ice is readily available and inexpensive.

Ice packs : Ice packs or frozen water bottles stay cold longer than regular ice, which can be useful if you want to maintain low temperatures for a longer period of time without having to add more ice.

When choosing between regular ice and ice packs for your portable ice bath, consider the following:

• Usage time : If you are planning short sessions, regular ice may be sufficient. For longer or multiple sessions, ice packs may be more practical.
• Convenience : Ice packs can be stored in the freezer and used immediately, while regular ice may require a little more preparation.

The choice depends on your specific needs. Many users find that a combination of both provides flexibility for different situations, allowing them to customize their cooling experience as needed.

Yes, it's perfectly fine to add Epsom salt to your ice bath, and there may actually be several good reasons to do so! Epsom salt is safe to use and can help increase your magnesium levels, which can have positive health effects. On the other hand, chloride salts, such as table salt or road salt, are not safe to use in ice baths.

Water quality is affected by factors such as humidity, hygiene, sun exposure and how many people are using the ice bath. We recommend finding a shady spot and possibly rinsing before use to extend the life of the water.

As a rule of thumb, you should empty the ice bath 2-4 times a month. In the summer, with high humidity, it may be necessary to empty it more often (about once a week). In the spring and autumn, changing the water every other week may be enough, while in the winter, once a month may be enough.

Generally, the frequency varies depending on weather conditions and usage. If the edges become slippery or the water looks dirty, it's time to change.

1. Unfold the bathtub and insert the 6 support rods into the holes around the bottom of the ice bath.
2. Make sure the bars are standing with the feet at the bottom and that the bathtub is on a stable, flat surface.
3. Attach the drain cock if it is not already attached to the ice bath.
4. Use the hand pump to inflate the top white ring. Make sure the pump is fully inserted into the valve.
5. Inflate the ring until it is smooth and even.
6. Once the bathtub is inflated, make sure the bottom plug is completely sealed before filling it with water.

It is important to monitor the temperature and ensure that the water does not freeze in winter. This is easily done by changing the water more often, and possibly adding salt to lower the freezing point further. Freezing damage is not covered by the warranty.

We have designed our ice bath to fit people up to 2.1 meters tall, while effectively reducing water and cooling requirements.

ALWAYS consult your doctor before using an ice bath if you have any health concerns!

DO NOT USE if you are : - Under 18 years of age, pregnant, have a history of heart disease or high blood pressure, have diabetes, complications such as neuropathy or retinal damage, you use a pacemaker, have had frostbite, have an open wound, have recently had surgery, epilepsy or other health problems or risks.

Taking an ice bath can dramatically lower your body's core temperature. Immersion in cold water constricts blood vessels and slows blood flow around your body, which combined with health complications can cause your blood pressure to rise and put you at greater risk of cardiac arrest or stroke.

Side effects : - The most noticeable side effect of an ice bath is a strong feeling of cold, but other side effects of staying in an ice bath for too long are: - hypothermia, frostbite, tachycardia (rapid heartbeat), arrhythmias (abnormal heartbeat), allergic and anaphylactic shock.

Our Recommendation :- Despite the potential side effects and warnings, proper use of an ice bath actually has many health benefits! We would always recommend that you start by not spending more than a few minutes in the ice bath, and slowly work your way up to the recommended time, never pushing your body beyond its limits.
