About Bijou Blu Medical and Wellness

Cold plunging in our Renu cold plunge tub is when you intentionally immerse your body in cold water—usually around 50–59°F (10–15°C) —for a short period of time (typically 2–5 minutes). It’s is a more intense version of an ice bath and is very popular for recovery and wellness. If your goal is building muscle, doing it right after strength training may slightly reduce muscle growth (because it blunts inflammation your body uses to build muscle). If you’re lifting for muscle gains, wait 4–6 hours before cold plunging. It is very helpful to do a slow inhale & controlled exhale. Your body will do a “gasp reflex” (quick, panicked breathing). The goal is to slow that down as fast as possible
