To properly care for the inflatable ring on the bath and lid, including when moving the bath around, follow these guidelines:

- Avoid lifting the bath solely by the inflatable ring. Instead, use the canvas edge below the ring on the bath to grip the sides of the bath for lifting and moving.
- When moving the bath, ensure the inflatable ring is fully deflated and securely fastened to prevent unnecessary strain or damage.
Keep the bath away from sharp objects or surfaces that may puncture the inflatable ring.
Regularly inspect the ring for any signs of wear, tears, or leaks. If you notice any damage, promptly repair using the repair patches that's included in the box. If you need more help please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Taking these precautions will help maintain the integrity of the inflatable ring and prolong its lifespan, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience with your bath.

Each individual's response to cold exposure is unique, but a good rule of thumb is to push yourself just enough to elicit the thought "this is really cold, but I can handle it safely." Remember, the colder the stimulus, the shorter the exposure time needed. With consistent practice, you can gradually increase your comfort level and confidence in colder temperatures, similar to building strength in the gym or improving your running time.

A Solid Basic, Science-Supported Protocol

A recommended protocol for deliberate cold exposure is to aim for a total of 11 minutes per week, divided into 2-4 sessions that last 1-5 minutes each, spread throughout the week. It's important to note that the water temperature should be uncomfortable yet safe enough to remain in for a few minutes. While you can certainly do more, sticking to this minimum amount will allow you to reap the benefits of cold exposure. Alternatively, you can also opt for very cold, brief exposures to trigger an adrenaline release, but the 11-minute protocol is based on a recent study that examined a range of effects and provides a solid foundation for ongoing use.

IMPORTANT: Safety Precautions and Recommendations for Ice Bath Usage

Never get into a dangerous body of water. Also, never do deliberate hyperventilation (Whim Hof/Tummo breathing) before or during cold water or any water immersion.

Ice baths can offer numerous benefits when used properly. However, there are certain individuals who should exercise caution or avoid using ice baths altogether.

Please adhere to the following guidelines before using the CUAN Ice Bath:

DO NOT USE if you fall into any of the following categories:

• Under 18 years of age
• Pregnant
• History of heart disease or high blood pressure
• Diabetes with complications such as neuropathy or retinal damage
• Wear a pacemaker
• History of frostbite
• Open wound or recent surgery
• Epilepsy or any other health concerns or risks

Using an ice bath significantly lowers your body's core temperature. Immersion in cold water causes blood vessels to constrict and slows blood flow, which, when combined with certain health complications, can increase blood pressure and the risk of cardiac arrest or stroke.

Possible Side Effects:
While the primary side effect of an ice bath is intense cold, prolonged exposure may lead to:

• Hypothermia
• Frostbite
• Tachycardia (rapid heart rate)
• Arrhythmias (irregular heart rhythm)
• Allergic reactions and anaphylactic shock

Always prioritise your safety and well-being. Before incorporating ice baths into your routine, it is strongly recommended to consult with a healthcare professional who can evaluate your individual circumstances and provide personalised guidance.

Start slow (warmer than colder) as cold shock is possible, you’ll need to find the right temperature for you, yet prioritise safety. Despite potential risks, when used correctly, ice baths offer numerous health benefits. We strongly advise starting with brief sessions in the ice bath, gradually increasing the duration over time. Always listen to your body and never push beyond your limits. Your well-being is our priority.
