Cold plunge as a trend is nothing new. Many popular celebrities and social media influencers have taken cold plunges in the past. Athletes often use this as a remedy to get rid of body aches from extreme exhaustion.
Earlier, a popular celebrity Jennie, and a famous pop singer has also taken a cold plunge. The video of the plunge is shot and covered by Vogue.
What is a cold plunge?
A cold plunge is an extremely challenging activity in which a person immerses the body in cold water. There are multiple benefits to cold plunges. The most important benefit is increased blood circulation in one's body. It reduces inflammation and boosts mood by reducing fatigue.
