There’s no doubt that after a cold shower you feel pretty zingy and alive. But I’ll admit there are occasions when I grumble and grouse about taking my daily cold shower says Lucy Corkhill
Cold water therapy has been around a long time. Naturopaths often recommend starting by gradually moving from a hot shower to a cold one – keeping it as cold as you can bear for 1 minute – and then alternating, ending with a cold shower. But if you can only do a cold shower, like me, then that’s great too! Alternatively, you could opt for a dip in a body of water such as a river, lake or the sea, if you are lucky enough to live near to one.
