That is, a very very cold bath. The athletes (or at least their coaches) believe that it increases blood flow (when you get out) to the muscles to aid recovery. Personally, I would not be surprised if the benefits are imaginary! Really need to see some scientific testing on their use. Do not put your 12 year old sister in one. She will probably freeze to her death. An ice bath is a bath of ice. That is, a very very cold bath.
