Cold plunging has become more than a trend—it's a daily ritual for athletes, wellness seekers, and high-performers aiming to reset, recover, and rejuvenate. But what if you could transform the chill into a sensory-rich experience that boosts both your body and your mood?
Enter the Leonica Cosmetics bath soak collection—specifically the Charcoal-Menthol and Pineapple-Ginger formulas, designed to amplify your contrast therapy sessions from simple to spa-worthy.
Why Cold Plunging Works
Cold plunges (typically between 4–12°C) activate powerful biological responses:
-
Reduce inflammation and soreness after workouts
-
Boost circulation by flushing and refreshing blood vessels
-
Improve mental clarity and resilience through endorphin release
-
Strengthen immune response via cold-induced immune activation
Short 2–5 minute sessions done regularly can make a lasting difference in recovery, sleep, focus, and stress regulation.
Why Add a Bath Soak?
While cold therapy works from the inside out, Leonica's soaks work from the outside in—targeting the skin, senses, and emotional state. Using them before or after your plunge intensifies detox, rejuvenation, and relaxation.
Charcoal-Menthol Bath Soak
Best for: Deep detox, muscle relief, and a refreshing mental reset.
-
Activated charcoal to draw out toxins
-
Cooling menthol & essential oils (eucalyptus, peppermint, basil) to awaken the senses
-
Bay leaf extract for positive energy and skin soothing
🛁 Use this soak before a cold plunge to open pores and prepare the body for the shock—or after for a clarifying, crisp refresh.
Pineapple-Ginger Bath Soak
Best for: Post-plunge warmth, energy boost, and skin rejuvenation.
-
Pineapple enzymes gently exfoliate and brighten
-
Ginger root invigorates circulation and immune defense
-
Himalayan salt & essential oils deeply hydrate and restore balance
🛁 Perfect for a post-plunge soak that rewarms your body and adds a tropical twist to your routine. The ginger complements the cold plunge’s circulation boost, while pineapple pampers the skin.
