FAQ

The effects differ from person to person and are partially determined by what you seek to get out of a session. An athlete will seek to reduce inflammation and improve muscle recovery while someone else might look for ways to stimulate blood flow. Reported general benefits include improved sleep, reduced stress levels, increased focus and energy, and accelerated recovery. Book a session with us to discover the benefits of breathwork & ice bath therapy for your health and happiness.

Every healthy adult can practice a breathwork & ice bath therapy session. If you have a medical condition, we advise you to consult your doctor/specialist before booking or undergoing a session with us. We strongly advise you not to attempt any of our techniques if you just underwent surgery or if you are dealing with any of the following:

• High blood pressure (in case of prescription medication)

• A history of serious health issues like heart failure or stroke

• Epilepsy

• Coronary heart disease (e.g. Angina Pectoris; Stable Angina)

• Kidney failure

• Recent surgery

• Cold urticaria

• Pregnancy

• Migraines

Before joining a session, we kindly ask you to sign a health declaration form.

Always apply the Wim Hof Method (WHM) techniques in a safe environment.

As with all physical activities, application of the WHM and any related practices entails some degree of physical and mental risk. Be cognizant of your own capabilities and limits, both physical and mental, and act accordingly. Never conduct the taught WHM-related activities in places where losing consciousness is extremely dangerous (e.g. in water, whilst driving, etc.).

We do not recommend children practice breathing exercises and cold water therapy. Children are still developing their brains and often have not matured to the point where they can adequately assess the potential risks, which may include lightheadedness and even loss of consciousness.

At the moment, there isn’t any scientific proof about the effects of breathwork & ice bath therapy on the health of your unborn baby. We strongly advise you to postpone your session until after the baby is born.

Please bring a towel, bathing clothes, flip flops, a bottle of water, your health declaration, and a set of comfortable clothes.

For the best results, it is recommended to do the breathing exercises on an empty stomach. We advise you not to eat and not to drink caffeine in the two (2) hours before having a session.

We kindly ask you to be present and sign in at least 10-15 minutes before the session starts.
