Contrast Showers (Hydrotherapy)
A contrast shower alternates between hot and cold water to improve circulation, boost the immune system, reduce pain and inflammation, ease muscle soreness, and increase energy. The heat causes blood vessels to expand, while cold causes them to constrict, promoting better blood flow and oxygenation. Cold water also stimulates white blood cell production, helping the immune system. The alternating temperatures relax muscles and reduce soreness, aiding in recovery. Cold water stimulates the release of endorphins and adrenaline, boosting energy and alertness.
