$10,000 Cold Plunge (WORTH IT?) | Wim Hof Method | Cold Therapy

The Genesis of Renu Therapy

What started as just an idea, quickly became a reality as founder Bill Banchard turned a one-off vacation experience into a growing business.

Bill explains that during a ski trip to Mammoth, California he was suffering from a back injury and unable to ski very well. To compensate he decided to use the hotel pool's broken spa as a cold therapy solution and spent each day transitioning between the hot and cold tub. Upon returning home, he had felt better than ever before and knew he needed to implement this into his daily routine and buy cold plunge.

After countless research, Bill really struggled to find a top-of-the-range cold plunge that wasn't incredibly hard to complex to build, and would aesthetically fit the beautiful home constructed. Inspired, Bill embarked on a mission to find his own solution, and thus Renu Therapy was born.

Let's Talk Specs

Renu Therapy is what I like to call 'the Lamborghini' of cold plunges. From its sleek exterior to its meticulously crafted components, every detail has been thoughtfully considered to give you the best experience possible.

Their 'Cold Stoic' model is a high-functioning and effective cold plunge tank that prides itself on its controllable thermostat and stable temperature when unplugged. The cold tank was built to be purposefully weatherproof and to live either indoors or outdoors, depending on the customer's preference.
‍

Some of its key features include:

• A deep and immersive tank.
• A special UV protective coat,
• An integrated chiller.
• An insulated lid.
• A matching wood step stool.
• An advanced filtration and ozone purification system.
• Electrics are housed within a waterproof bay.
• An upper deck top one can use to sit and take a moment of peace and stillness or practice breathwork before entering the cold plunge.
  ‍

Each tank is designed and assembled in southern California, and is accompanied by free curbside delivery anywhere within the contiguous US and a 1-year warranty.

If you're worried about how it'll look, fear not! Customers are able to custom design the tank to their liking by choosing 1 of 5 base colors (black, white, light gray, dark gray, or navy) and 1 of 4 deck colors (California Redwood, Pacific Cedar, Shou Sugi Ban Dark Burn, or Shou Sugi Ban Tiger Stripe).

Who Can Benefit

With a heavy price tag of $9700, you may be wondering "Is this cold plunge worth it?" and truthfully I would only recommend it to a handful of people

Elite Athletes - As an elite athlete, your body is your livelihood and it therefore makes sense to use and find the tools to perform at your best, both mentally and physically.

Executives - An executive, entrepreneur, or business owner is relied upon to show up energized, and with mental clarity. Prioritizing daily wellness activities such as cold therapy, could be a game changer for those in the business industry.

Gym/Studio owners- I'd also recommend it to business owners in the health and fitness industry who own their own gym and/or studio and are seeking to provide the best products to help customers.

High-stress individuals - Individuals under a lot of stress and pressure who are looking to add a sense of balance and stillness to their daily routine, may really benefit from the stress relief and relaxation a cold tub can bring.

Accessibility and Affordability

Wellness shouldn't break the bank. For those who are attending regular infrared sauna, cryotherapy, or massage sessions and spending money both on the session and traveling to and from the session, a reliable and high-quality cold plunge may be a great investment in your future and long-term money saver.

Thankfully, Renu Therapy is committed to making its cold plunge accessible to all and has a monthly financing option for those interested.

Maintenance Made Easy

One of the things I love the most about the Cold Stoic is how easy the upkeep and maintenance are. For home-based users, the ozone and water pump help keep the tub clean, while filters only need to be changed once a month. Bill personally recommends buying a spa mineral stick and spa sponge to help collect any bodily oils and keep the water clean. Due to the 4-part purification system, the tank seldom needs a water change.
