IGLU Therapy was created for the ones who do hard things on purpose. The ones who crave control, clarity, and calm and aren't afraid to earn it.
Hi! We’re Kate and Anthony, the founders of IGLU Therapy. IGLU isn’t here to sell you on the latest trend – we’re here to build something lasting. Something that challenges you, steadies you, and supports the discipline you’ve already chosen.  This isn’t about chasing performance highs or overcomplicating recovery. It’s about showing up – cold, quiet, consistent – and letting the ritual do the work.Â
Our journey to find the best cold water or ice bath began with frustration. We couldn’t find an ideal cold water immersion option in South Africa. Our oceans aren’t cold enough (Yes, even Clifton on its coldest day), cold showers don’t submerge the body, we didn’t fancy buying kilograms of ice every day, and cryotherapy has limited long-term benefits. So we decided to take matters into our own hands and work with experts to design, craft and bring state-of-the-art cold plunge baths to South Africa.
Fast forward the extensive research, the experimental plunges, the endless health podcasts and the expert collaborations and here we are – ready to bring you endorphin rushes and dopamine kicks with our stylish, temperature-controlled, hygienic cold plunge IGLU baths.
Whether you’re starting your practice or refining it, this is where you begin again. Daily. Cold is only the beginning, we’ll meet you in the water.Â
Why the name IGLU?
We are inspired by the Inuit people, who recognise the immense power of the Arctic cold. Each item in our IGLU Therapy range will celebrate the Inuit understanding of ice.Â
