For newbies, the entire experience can be nerve-wracking as the shock of the cold water puts you in that immediate fight or flight mode. Yet, the moment you’re done, you’ll feel energized and rejuvenated, making it a truly addictive experience. If you want to hop on the icy trend, here are all the unique cryotherapy and cold water immersion experiences you can try out in Dubai.
