Cold Tanks
Cold tanks and cold water therapy is a nonpharmacological treatment for acute musculoskeletal injury. The therapeutic effects for which it is used include pain reduction, blood flow, edema, inflammation, muscle spasm, and metabolic demand. The purpose for therapeutic effects is to achieve a more rapid healing from exercise induced muscle damage (EIMD) and associated delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) toward a quicker return to normal function and physical activity.

Cold tanks and cold water therapy have been used for centuries as a tool to achieve therapeutic benefits to the muscles after strenuous activity. It is believed that the immersion of the body and the involved muscles in cold or ice water shortly after tissue damage produces a muscle-guarding effect that constricts damaged muscle and connective tissues, blood vessels, thus limiting the proliferation of secondary tissue damage that occurs in the hours after injury or strenuous exercise. The cold also produces an analgesic effect to help reduce pain associated with the musculoskeletal damage. These musculoskeletal issues are associated with a negative impact on sports training, recovery from training and sport competition, and subsequent performance.
Cold tanks allow the individual to immerse their body in an ice bath specifically designed for treatment to the extremities, hips, and back.
Several cold tank options come in mobile and stationary configurations and of the sport, Hi-Boy, and Lo-Boy models.
