Are ice baths good for cricket players? More and more cricket players are incorporating ice baths into their training as effective methods for aiding recovery and enhancing performance. Below, we delve into why ice baths for cricket players are becoming increasingly popular along with saunas for cricket players – and why we recommend a combination of both.

Found—Space has been supplying top-quality saunas and customer service to Austrailians since 2008 – in recent times, we have evolved into a hormetic tech company. We are excited to now be offering equipment designed specifically to induce a hormetic stress response (known as hormesis) through two very powerful forms of hormetic technology – infrared saunas AND ice baths. Here are the benefits of ice baths for cricket players and saunas for cricket players:

Benefits of Ice Baths and Saunas for Cricket Players

When we expose our bodies to certain types of stress in the right amount (such as taking a cold plunge in an ice bath or having a sauna session) this is beneficial both physically & mentally by improving the body’s ability to adapt and respond to stress. By doing this regularly, we can activate and maintain a range of beneficial physiological cascades that improve our health & resilience over time.

Using ice baths for cricket players can help to speed up recovery by reducing muscle inflammation, pain & swelling, relieving excess lactic acid and improving circulation & metabolism. Ice baths for cricket players have also been shown to enhance performance through better cardiovascular health, breath control/mindfulness as well as the mental benefits of adaptability towards stress and enhanced mental clarity, focus & mood.

The benefits of saunas for cricket players can include:

• Activation of heat shock proteins
• Improved cardiovascular health, heat tolerance and lung capabilities
• Less recovery time and reduced muscle soreness
• Potential immune system benefits
• Increased blood flow and improved joint circulation
• Relaxation
• Effective stress management
• Helping muscles to loosen can minimise the chance of injury

Alternating between ice baths and saunas for cricket players (sometimes referred to as hot/cold therapy) can further boost muscle recovery and trigger your body to release adrenaline and endorphins. Going from hot to cold and vice versa has also been shown to trigger lymphatic drainage and circulation which can help reduce some forms of swelling and infection.
