5 Shocking Cold Shower Benefits To Your Skin

According to healthline, cold showers with a water temperature below 70°F may have health benefits.  Water therapy (also called hydrotherapy) has been used for centuries to take advantage of our body’s tendency to adapt to harsher conditions. As a result, our bodies become more resistant to stress.

Besides that, a cold or slightly cold shower is also a simple beauty trick that can have a dramatic effect on the skin.

1.  Skin is healthier and radiant

Coldwater helps improve blood circulation. For the face, this may have a radiant effect and look healthier.

2.  Prevents skin aging


The habit of taking a cold shower every day helps the skin stay younger. Coldwater activates your nervous system, and the body releases hormones and chemicals in the brain that fight stress. Studies show that psychological stress has a direct effect on skin aging and has a negative effect on many systems in the body.

3. Tighten pores


Coldwater reduces the appearance of pores. It helps to give freshness to the face and increase the brightness of the skin. Because cold water can cause narrowing of blood vessels, the face may not look swollen or red anymore.

4. Relieves discomfort from some skin conditions.

Although hot showers affect the skin, causing redness, itching, and even flaking, cold water is the opposite. For those who suffer from itchy skin, a cold shower can help overcome the sensation of scratching.

Cooling the skin with a cold water bath can also help reduce the itching caused by psoriasis.

5.  Prevents stress-related skin conditions

Coldwater sends large amounts of electrical impulses to the brain and stimulates the release of ‘happy hormones’ or endorphins. When these chemicals are released by the body, the stress level decreases and you will not experience any skin problems such as acne, psoriasis, and dermatitis.

So to all of you, start practicing cold water baths to get this lucrative benefit.
