Cold water therapy maximises the body’s natural healing process by lowering the body’s temperature after high-intensity workouts. Wellness spas, health clinics and sports therapists are increasingly offering cold water therapy to their clients to reduce high blood pressure and recovery times, while improving cardiovascular circulation. Even delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) can be relieved with ice baths.For enthusiasts and athletes, the Lumi Recovery PRO™ Ice Barrel packs up into a briefcase-sized package with a comfortably carry handle for effortless portability. Set up in as little as 5 minutes.
The science behind cold water therapy
When your body’s exposed to cold water, the blood vessels begin to constrict. When you step out, the change in temperature makes your blood vessels rapidly open up again—flushing out metabolic waste, reducing muscle stiffness and accelerating post-workout recovery. Studies have shown that cold water therapy also produces more anti-inflammatory chemicals to reduce anxiety, depression and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.

Built using quality materials with a thick rubber solid-wall construction, the Lumi Recovery PRO™ Ice Barrel has a 520L capacity large enough to comfortably accommodate 1 person up to 6’7” (2.1m) tall.The Lumi Thermo Lid has been specifically engineered to keep your ice barrel pristine and optimally chilled at 15˚C when not in use. Secured via sturdy clip to provide an effective thermal bridge between the ice water and the external environment, ensuring a consistently invigorating plunge every time.
do I use the Lumi Recovery PRO™ Ice Barrel?
Step 1: Place your Lumi Recovery PRO™ Ice Barrel outside on a flat, stable surface.

Expert Advice: Start by spending no more than a few minutes in the ice barrel on your first few uses. Slowly increase the duration per session, working your way up to the maximum recommended time. Connect to the Lumi Thermo CTI™ (optional extra) to regulate temperature and filter water. Sold separately.
How long should I stay in the water?
Cold water therapy works best with the right combination of time and temperature. For example, if you're in 10°C water, we recommend staying in for no more than 10 minutes.
Recommended temperature to time examples:
1°C = 1-minute submersion
3°C = 3 minutes submersion
5°C = 5 minutes submersion
10°C = 10 minutes submersion

Change the water once a week.
