Hi everyone, how are you doing today?ย ๐Ÿ™‚

More people are turning to cryotherapy and cold plunges to reduce inflammation, manage pain, or even improve mood and sleep.

Some swear by it. Others say, โ€œno, thank you!โ€ to freezing cold water.

What about you?

Have you tried cold exposure for your health, even a cold shower?

Did it help with pain, energy, recovery, or anything else?

Or is this one wellness trend youโ€™re not eager to dive into?

Letโ€™s talk cold therapy: curious, cautious, or already a fan?

yes i swim in cold water, they did experiments with dolphins and it has calming effect. i also put ice pack on face and bend down hold breath that helps. i am praying for all of us. if you pray please remember me.. since r

the dx of bc i have been on many anti depressants and all have side effect. i ask psyc if i can get off he said i will get worse. but now zoloft seems to have caused me to have left side weakness dropped foot and left arm a little weaker. i hope it stops praying for it love to you all.

Hi everyone, interesting topic! The U.S. has the resources and expertise to lead, and I think that comes with a responsibility to help strengthen international systems like the WHO [This content has been moderated by an administrator]
