I want to speculate on the technique, if I may.
Temperature affects circulation. CNS Vasculature seems
to be a problem in CH. Cold water may initially elicit a
vasodilatory response to distribute blood to the skin and extremities
so bod temp is maintained within physiologiccal levels. Dipping may compand this
b simple CO2 accumulation-derived vasodilationm that is when fipping
under...so there might be a synergistic beteen teh two typs of
of actvity
