Winter swimming – feel the rush

The cold blast boosts your metabolism, strengthens your immune system and makes you “happy as a clam”. When you bathe in cold water, a lot of neurotransmitters are released in the brain such as endorphins, serotonin and dopamine. It provides an energy boost so you feel “high” after your ocean dip. Blood rushes around the body and the renewed energy can be felt hours later. Many also experience a special sense of victory when they have conquered their first trips as winter swimmers.

Combine an ice-cold dip in the sea with a trip to our hot sauna and you’ll indulge all your senses. The interaction between the cold water and the sauna is an effective way of cleansing stress hormones, for example. If you do this regularly, you will also reduce inflammation in the body. That’s true self-love.

Winter swimming – get started

If you’re considering taking the plunge as a winter swimmer, here are a few tips before you hit the waves.

  • Get your body used to winter bathing by ocean bathing during the warm summer months and continue through the fall and winter months.
  • If you start when it’s already cold, you can acclimatize your body in a cold water tub.
  • Warm up your muscles so you’re warm before jumping in. When you’re already high on endorphins, it’s easier to overcome yourself.
  • Wear a hat when winter swimming to help you retain heat. 80% of the body’s heat is lost through the head.
  • Wear shower shoes and have a pair of warm shoes ready when you get up and a towel to stand on.
  • Don’t put your head under water. The cold water reduces blood flow to the brain, putting you at risk of fainting. That’s why you should never bathe alone, not just for fun, but in case something happens, you can help each other out.
  • Short dips of 20-30 seconds are enough to boost both your mood and your wellbeing with a long-lasting effect.

Ready to take the plunge? We are happy to arrange winter swimming for groups with subsequent access to the Spa. A sensory experience that not only stimulates blood circulation and connective tissue, but also strengthens mental balance, improves sleep and increases happiness in everyday life.
