Ice Barrel: Pioneering At-Home Cold Therapy
Ice Barrel is the first of its kind. Ice Barrel's main goal is to bring cold therapy to athletes, bodybuilders, and anyone else interested in trying out a new way to heal their body and mind.
Ice Barrel was created to be an effective treatment for acute injuries and post-exercise recovery.
After enough research, however, the client found that cold therapy had more than just two benefits. Cold therapy can assist in pain management, inflammation, depression, anxiety, mood and brain function, heart rate variability, and vasoconstriction.
Ice Barrel determined that the issues cold therapy could solve were so numerous that people would enjoy having access to a cold-therapy product in their own homes.
