How to Do a Contrast Bath at Home

Step-by-Step Contrast Bath Therapy

  1. Hot phase – Immerse in warm water (37°C–40°C) for 3–4 minutes.
  2. Cold phase – Switch to cold water (10°C–15°C) for 1 minute.
  3. Repeat for 4–6 cycles, ending with cold immersion.

This routine can improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and speed recovery after intense exercise.

Safety Tips

  • Avoid extreme temperatures if you have cardiovascular issues.
  • Always warm up gently after finishing.
  • Hydrate before and after sessions.
