Why people keep doing it.
Circulation
Heat dilates blood vessels; cold constricts them. Alternating the two is a simple way to train your vascular response.
Recovery
Cold exposure is commonly used after training to ease muscle soreness — a well-documented practice in sports medicine.
Resilience
Regular cold exposure builds a tolerance for discomfort that carries into how you handle the rest of the day.
Sleep
Many practitioners report better sleep after a heat–cold cycle. Everyone's rhythm differs — find yours.
