Are you sure you're okay... I'm kind of worried about you now...
Years ago, I decided to give that a try and at the end of my shower I switched the water to cold. I was very healthy and in my 20's at the time, but I thought I might give myself a heart attack doing that.
On a business trip to Germany I had the pleasure of staying at a 4 Star resort. It had an indoor/outdoor spa that included wet and dry saunas, swimming pool, steam rooms, bar, snack bar, a Turkish Bath, an “snow room”, and a cold plunge. I gave the cold plunge a shot and decided quickly that it wasn’t for me. Oh yeah, didn’t mention that in the finest European tradition it was “textile free”? Some of the patrons wore towels, others just carried them letting it all hang out. I made a point to visit the spa a second time on another trip and had a great time.Years ago, I decided to give that a try and at the end of my shower I switched the water to cold.

I think I tried it twice... maybe 3 times and decided never again. Nope. Not for me.
Don't look at me like that
I get nervous
how nervous? https://voca.ro/1naxB0WHm7mqOkay... I haven't seen that movie in years (although I really like it)... but I can still hear that with their "accents".
An ice bath would feel a-ma-zing. I've been ending my showers cold. Hot for pain, then cold to lower inflammation. I'm worried the a cold plunge would have everything seize and tighten up right now. But, when I'm in better stages (my usual time) doing those more often might be beneficial.
Because I find you fucking adorable?! Girl please.
I'm wondering that, as well.
It is my favorite Muppet movie as well! I haven't seen it in a long time because of emotional baggage... but... yeah, I want to watch it again now.
You are so much more brave than I have ever been!

Shiver! How did you get warm afterwards?
I can’t force myself to do that in the shower. Maybe if it’s really hot out I can go cool water but that’s about it. I need it to feel like a challenge in front of other people apparently.Years ago, I decided to give that a try and at the end of my shower I switched the water to cold.

Just put regular winter clothes on again. It actually wasn’t that bad…
Sister, I'm totally with you on that!!!I hate cold water! Lol
I did that ice bucket challenge thing and I thought I would have a heart attack. My friends liked the wet tee and perky nips, but I think in the future I'll just donate $.
No more ice water for me, thank you!
orange is the new black!
Is that you on the right?
Yes!orange is the new black!
When I have a migraine, the colder I can get the better, but a cold water bath might be a bit too far. That seems like something to make me vomit immediately!Cold Water baths are a quick way for me to get over migraines, its relaxing to some extent and the one thing that will get me off the migraine from pulling my eyeballs out , so I have cold waters baths every week lol
That doesn't mean you aren't beautiful though!!Thank you(this was about 20 years ago though
