The Cold Plunge Barrel

This tool harnesses the power of cold therapy for improved physical and mental wellbeing. Cold therapy, or cold water immersion, triggers natural healing by exposing the body to cold temperatures. It boosts "feel-good" hormones, improving mood and energy, and enhances metabolism by stimulating the production of PGC-1alpha, a protein that improves endurance and fatigue resistance. Cold therapy also supports the immune system by increasing Killer T cells, which help fight illness. It aids muscle recovery by reducing inflammation, speeding up healing, and easing soreness. With beautiful design and advanced features, Brass Monkey makes it possible for you to enjoy the powerful benefits of cold therapy right in the comfort of your own home.

Brass Monkey was inspired by founder Dan Bosomworth’s personal experience with the benefits of cold therapy after turning a chest freezer into an ice bath. Wanting to share these benefits with the world, he set out to create something better. Now, the brand designs smart, advanced, self-cooling ice baths for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and wellbeing seekers. Their mission is to help people achieve a stronger mind, a healthier body, and better balance—one cold dip at a time.

Access: When selecting a location for the barrel, it is essential to account for its dimensions, which are 110cm in width and approximately 120cm in depth. Ensure that no obstacles, such as fences, gates, or doors, obstruct access to the chosen area.

Placement: The barrel must be positioned on a flat and level surface. Placing it on an uneven surface, such as York Stone paving or gravel, may cause stress from the water weight (over 400kg) and result in cracks or leaks.

Dimensions: The barrels measure 120cm in height and 100cm in width (120cm with fittings). When filled, they hold 400 litres of water, accommodating displacement when in use.

Maintenance: Filters should be changed every four weeks. For barrels subjected to heavy usage, filters or water may require more frequent replacement. Showering before use is strongly recommended to maintain water quality.
