Ice Bath therapy in Sharjah's desert is not only meant to cool you down during the summer heat. The practice also helps boost immunity, release anxiety and stress, and help with muscle recovery.
"The temperature difference increases your immune system...You stress your system for a short period of time, which makes you stronger. So the higher, or the bigger the difference in temperature, the better for your body," according to executive coach Benoit Demeulemeester, who runs the ice bath and breathing session.
