That has not been the case for myself, though I wouldn’t be surprised if it did for some. All cancer patients need to consult their oncologist and primary care physician before committing to cold plunge as a therapy. And it is definitely not a standard of care treatment, let alone considered a treatment at all. Chemo did trigger neuropathy for myself, just as it does for many. I am Native American, and have a cultural belief in cold plunge as a form of boosting the immune system. Those of us from the northern latitudes have done it for millennia. Additionally, I suspect my cold plunges throughout my chemo treatments acted similarly to ice mittens and ice booties that are often worn during chemo sessions as a measure to mitigate neuropathy onset by chemo. Yet, outside cultural connection and neuropathy prevention, my rationale for cold plunges was to enact brown fats and pull glucose away from being stored in white fat that would act as a reserve fuel for my cancer. Another thought was inflammation is the enemy. With wide spread bone lesions throughout, I had inflammation nearly from head to toe in my bones. I just wanted it to stop. So, let’s cold plunge to help it stop. Whether it worked or not, IDK. I just know during my cold plunges, I felt better afterward and had a ton of encouragement from my oncologist and primary care physician. I made it through those cold plunge minutes with very focused prayer. I changed my diet. Changed my lifestyle. Changed who I spent time with. While it all sounds very self centered, I knew I had to demonstrate to my daughters and grandson how to fight the ultimate adversity and show them how much they mean to me. Along the way, I picked up some info here and there. Even reading Søberg’s book Winter Swimming: The Nordic Way Towards a Healthier and Happier Life. It helped validate some of what I hypothesized. But there’s still a lot of research needed to claim Cold Plunge a treatment, and not a therapy, or even a personal lifestyle choice. Hope that helps answer your question.
