What is a Plunge Pool?
A plunge pool is a small, cold pool used for quick immersion, often following a sauna session. It offers a refreshing contrast to the heat of a steam room or sauna, enhancing the body’s resilience and circulation. While many enjoy a brief dip in the ice pool, experienced users may opt for a long stay, embracing the intense chill for even deeper rejuvenation and recovery benefits.
