When you immerse yourself in cold water, your circulation increases as your body works to keep your vital organs and your core warm by constricting blood vessels and increasing your heart rate. At the same time, there is decreased blood flow to the skin, so when the cold water stops there's an increase in blood flow to the surface of the skin. This increase in circulation can have a number of benefits, including improved heart health, brain function, sleep quality, and immunity.
