Ice bath workshop

Ice bath workshop in Valkenburg aan de Geul

Do you want to become healthier, more vital, happier and stronger? Do you experience stress, setbacks or depressive feelings that you want to learn to deal with better? Then expose yourself to a new challenge: the ice bath. A must on every bucket list, no matter what your goal is!

Why should I go into an ice bath?

Stepping into an ice-cold bath initially goes against nature. We have a natural aversion to cold. Cold temperatures are associated with an uncomfortable, unpleasant feeling and anxiety. Yet an ice bath has both physical and mental benefits. You get more energy, you recover faster (after an athletic effort, for example), you sleep better and you improve blood circulation. By stepping into an ice bath, you learn to become comfortable in uncomfortable situations. You learn to release stress without fighting and become aware of your own body and breathing. Thermae 2000's basic philosophy "Mens Sana in Corpore Sano," a healthy mind in a healthy body, fits perfectly with this.

On this page we explain all about the ice bath & wellness workshop.
