Hot Spring Spas brings their elegant design sensibilities and energy-saving focus to the cold plunge market with Vigor, their newest wellness line in the family.  With interior lighting and ergonomic seating incorporating armrests and a roomy footprint, you can chill in style.  They plug into a regular outlet with a 110 GFCI plug included with purchase.

Why take the plunge?  Studies have shown that cold plunges boosts immunity, reduces anxiety, speeds up your metabolism, improves focus and mental clarity, increases recovery time after a routine workout and even helps you lose weight by converting fat cells into burnable fuel.  Vigor also reduces muscle inflammation and soreness, making it a great post-workout destination.

The best way to start is by going in at around 45-60 degrees for one to two minutes and gradually increasing your time while lowering the temperature to a maximum of 40 degrees.  Using a cold plunge for four days a week or more will maximize all of the health benefits.

Families with a spa can also take advantage of “contrast therapy” by soaking in hot water and taking the plunge afterwards.  This combines the benefits of hot water hydromassage and cold water immersion therapy.

Vigor is in stock now at Pool Mart.  If you’d like to experience cold plunge first hand by scheduling a test soak in-store, contact your nearest location!
