Healing Waters!

Athletic Cold Plunge and Training.

A cold therapy plunge after training often reduces recovery times!  Many coaches and trainers recommend a 3 to 5 minute Cold Plunge (62°F - 64°F) to reduce traumas caused by training, including Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. The standard lowest temperature setting for residential use is 62°F. An AnyTemp® System with a lowest setting of 56°F is available by special order for medical professionals, therapists and trainers.

Athletes should not normally train in water warmer than 85 degrees because of the risk of thermal fatigue!  Cold Aqua Therapy is often used by athletes as a preventative measure for injuries, i.e. Shin Splints and Plantar Fasciitis.

Cold Aquatic Therapy

When Cold and Hot contrasting aquatic therapy is available, professional trainers, coaches and therapists most often prescribe brief multiple alternating emersion in both Cold and Hot water, normally for a total of twenty minutes per session. Be sure to consult with your doctor, professional trainer, coach or therapist prior to beginning contrasting aquatic therapy.

Cool Exercise and FUN!

Cool Water provides a refreshing gravity free environment providing buoyancy and relieving pressure on the skeletal system, perfect for low impact exercising, swimming or relaxing with family and friends.

Breathing rates often increase as a result of pressure on the Thoracic Cavity and maximum
heart rates tend to be 8 - 10% lower in cool water than on dry land.

• Cool Water is Rejuvenating, Refreshing and Relaxing, especially during the hottest and/or most humid months of the year! Atera's many exclusive eco-friendly green features are also very cool and environmentally friendly.

Hydrotherapy Provides Many Benefits!

Hydrostatic Pressure reduces swelling of injured limbs and allows exercising of injured limbs without additional potential swelling! We all know cold reduces swelling! Bring on the Cool!

Cold or cool hydrotherapy often reduces the symptoms of Dementia, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, Diabetes and many other maladies. Cold hydrotherapy is often very effective in the treatment of many acute injuries and only Atera AnyTemp® Spas and Swim Spas provides 62° F to 104° F perfect temperature healing water.

Cold plunges normally only require a few minutes of immersion but we highly recommend you consult with your physician about a routine that meets your specific personal health and wellness requirements.

Cold Often Provides Pain Relief!

COLD Aquatic Therapy decreases skin and muscle temperature causing vasoconstriction often resulting in reducing aches and pain sensations in all muscles and joints! Cold Therapy often reduces fatigue caused by stress, extreme hot climates and extended travel. Cooling the body when it's hot is a great emotional relief! It's just plain fun, so enjoy it every chance you get!

Hot Tub Spa, Swim Spa and Pool Considerations:

You may be considering the purchase of a swimming pool to provide fun for your children, so you can teach them to swim and you can keep an eye on them at home. An Atera AnyTemp® Spa, Swim Spa, Hot Tub or Pool will provide these benefits, year round outdoors in any climate, at a fraction of the cost of an only seasonal in-ground pool.

• Maintenance heating and cooling costs for a pool can be very expensive. Without heating, and without chilling a pool, the seasonal window of time for comfortable use is only a few months, even in the hot climate of Phoenix, Arizona!

• For several months during the summer, in hot and humid climates, pools, hot tub spas and swim spas are often too hot to be enjoyable.

• Hot Tub temperatures are easy to regulate in the winter, since all other brands of hot tub spas and swim spas only heat the water. However, soaking in hot water, often exceeding 100° F in hot tubs, with no option for reducing the tenperature during the hot and humid summer months is not pleasant for most people.

• In the summer, ambient air temperatures, UV rays and kinetic energy generated by motors and pumps heat hot tubs and swim spas even with the heaters have been turned off. Some brandsclaim they have a “cool summer mode” but without actively actually cooling the water it's not possible to cool the water below average daily ambient air temperatures.

• Hot tub spas have a High Limit Safety Sensor designed to disable the entire hot tub spa if the water temperature gets too hot (105°F - 110°F). A hot tub spa cannot then be reset and become operational until the water temperature is reduced below 104°F. Try twenty bags of ice for today, what about tomorrow?

• In hot climates, this high limit safety switch feature often renders hot tub spas useless during the hottest months unless ice is used to temporarily reduce the water's temperature, allowing you to reset the system. What about tomorrow? More ice?
