Morozko Ice Bath Shop

Morozko has consistently set the bar for innovation, excellence, and customer satisfaction in the ever-growing cold plunge market. Here are just a few features that set Morozko apart from competitors: Morozko ice baths are handcrafted in the USA at the Morozko manufacturing studio in Phoenix, AZ. Morozko ice baths were the first cold plunge tubs in the world engineered to make their own ice and can maintain temperatures down to 34°F.

Morozko's patented cooling system is powerful enough to freeze the water into a solid block of ice while operating in outdoor temperatures ranging from -9°F to 110°F. The expertly engineered cooling and filtration systems simultaneously make ice and filter water, which most other cold plunges cannot. Morozko uses a continuous ozone sanitation system, eliminating the need for harsh water treatments or unhealthy chemicals. Morozko ice baths are handcrafted using high-quality materials, including a stainless steel tub that is fully grounded for added safety and health benefits. Morozko offers industry-leading customer support and comprehensive warranties, including a 72-hour on-site service guarantee for all PRO models. Morozko uses real marine-grade wood products and safe, non-toxic, sustainable finishes on ice bath models. Morozko tubs are designed to operate without the need for regular water changes and are warrantied for use with Epsom salt. Due to the bespoke nature of the build process and range of customizable features, no two Morozko ice baths are exactly alike. There features are more allow Morozko ice baths to stand out as the coldest, cleanest, most powerful, and highest-quality cold plunges on the market.

When beginning a cold plunge practice, we recommended you go “cold enough to gasp & long enough to shiver.” While ideal cold dose will vary from person to person , you can estimate your unique cold dose from this equation. You can achieve ultimate health benefits at 2 minutes, but you will notice it is time to get out by your shiver response. We advise keeping your plunges under ten minutes until you are well versed in your own practice.

While the metabolic benefits of the ice bath can be realized at temperatures as high as 50F, we recommended setting your ice bath to a temperature that is low enough to scare you as this is the point at which the psychological benefits really kick in.

Adding 4lb-6lb of pure magnesium sulfate to your Morozko ice bath will soften your ice and may provide your body with transdermal absorption that supplements your magnesium levels. However, you should never add chlorine, chlorine bleach, or chloride salts of any type to your ice bath. For more information, click here.

While the use of ice baths for athletic recovery is well-established, there remains some question as to its impact on anabolic gains. While ice-bathing after a workout has recently been shown to lower serum testosterone levels, the practice of ice bathing before a workout — a practice known as “pre-cooling” — is increasingly showing the opposite effect. [Link to precooling article] In addition, ice bathing has been shown to increase the size of the midcingulate cortex, the area of will power & resilience in the brain, as well as protect against brain injury & improve memory.

Cold therapy has been shown to be safe for women who are expecting. Women who cold plunge during pregnancy have reported positive outcomes, including better mood, reduced inflammation, and more energy. For more information on how ice baths can impact pregnancy, click here.

Several men and women have documented significant increases in total testosterone after adopting a regular practice of cold plunge therapy. In men, this is especially pronounced when they ice bathe prior to working out, a practice known as “pre-cooling.” This can be attributed to the mechanism of steroidogenisis performed by mitochondria, which is the conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone (the steroidal precursor necessary to synthesize testosterone).
