Should I shower before using Cold Plunge tub?

Yes, it’s recommended to shower before using your Cold Plunge tub to maintain hygiene and enhance your experience. Showering helps remove sweat, dirt, and oils from your skin, preventing contamination of the water. AS ColdPlunge emphasizes cleanliness, as it contributes to better water quality and overall effectiveness of your cold plunge sessions.

A quick rinse ensures the water stays cleaner for longer, which is especially important if you're sharing the tub with others. Additionally, a warm shower prior to plunging can help your body adapt to the cold shock more comfortably.

For instance, if you take a warm shower first, you may feel less of an intense temperature difference when you enter the cold water.

PRO TIP: Use a natural soap to avoid leaving any harsh chemicals in the water.

CONSIDERATION: If you're using the tub after an outdoor workout, remember that spending too much time in the cold water can be counterproductive if your body is overly chilled from the weather.
