Unlock the powerful benefits of cold therapy with Monk.

Cold therapy, or cold water immersion, involves briefly submerging the body in cold temperatures and may offer a range of potential benefits. Research suggests it can reduce inflammation, enhance immunity, and accelerate muscle recovery. Studies show it may increase dopamine by up to 250% and norepinephrine by up to 530%, supporting mental well-being. Cold therapy also activates brown fat, which may assist with fat loss, and boosts metabolism by up to 350%. Plus, it can promote brain health by triggering cold shock proteins, potentially protecting against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. 

Monk introduces the world’s first smart ice bath, designed to enhance your cold therapy experience. Paired with the companion app, you can fully maximise your results and track your progress.

Key Features of the Monk Smart Ice Bath:

Guided plunge & breathwork programmes: The Monk App offers guided programmes for cold acclimation, recovery, mental wellness, and more. Includes breathwork, motivational tools, timing, and temperature tips for every plunge.

Integrate with your health wearables like FitBit, Garmin, Oura, Whoop & more.

Track your sleep, heart rate, and HRV: Integrating with your wearables means you can track how cold exposure affects key health metrics like mood, sleep, motivation, heart rate, and HRV over time.

Set your temperature remotely (3–16°C): Adjust the temperature easily using the app or ice bath controls. No guesswork—just precise settings for the benefits you deserve.

Self-cleaning ozone sanitisation: Ozone kills viruses, bacteria, and algae—no need for chlorine, chemicals, or manual cleaning. Simply replace the water every 3 months with the reversible flow valve.

Energy-efficient design: Powerful insulation means the cooling unit runs for minutes per hour, using energy similar to an LED lightbulb. Keeps water cool in heat and prevents freezing in cold.

Ergonomically designed for your comfort: Features a curved interior that cradles your body for a comfortable, snug fit—no awkward rattling around.

Beautifully compact: Fits through doorways but spacious enough for athletes up to 6'6" and 125kg. Perfect for indoor or outdoor use, with a design that’s sure to impress.

Dimensions

Monk is designed to fit through doorways, but spaces with narrow, tight corners and stairs should be given thought. Its dimensions are L63in x W27.6in x H33.5in.

Weight

Monk weighs 243lbs when empty, and can hold up to 300 litres of water (allowing for displacement depending on the size of the user). 

Access to space
Monk’s grill at the back of the unit needs fresh air in order for our integrated cooling unit to work efficiently, so it is recommend to leave adequate space around it.

Ambient temperature
Monk has been designed to work in temperatures from 0°C up to 40°C. Lower cooling efficiency is expected if the ambient temp is over 24°C.

Storage temperature
When the ambient temperature drops below 0°C, it's not suitable to use the chiller as the components will become hard. You will need to fully drain your Monk to avoid freezing in the pipes. 

Maintenance:
Your Monk comes with a 20-micron filter, and it is recommended to change it monthly, depending on usage. Two types of filters are available on the website: 5-micron and 20-micron.

Thanks to the powerful and natural ozone sanitisation, you only need to change the water every 2-4 months, depending on usage. Changing the water is made simple with the reversible flow valve in the cooling unit, allowing the water to be pumped out via the hose that comes with your Monk, directly into a sink or drain. No need for manual bailing with buckets.
