To Create the Perfect Health Experience Just Add Ice to the Mix

The invigorating properties of ice have long been utilised to bring medical benefits and wellbeing to people across the world and Hubbard Ice Systems, the sole UK distributor of Scotsman ice making machines, believes that these properties can be harnessed in numerous beneficial ways in the fast developing day spa and health resort sectors, right through to smaller health and fitness centres.
And with up to 30% off list prices during May and June Scotsman ice machines provide an even more cost-effective way to deliver an enhanced health experience for your customers.
In Scandinavia, it is not uncommon for sauna users to dash out into a plunge hole in an icy lake (known as the 'Polar Bear Plunge'), dive into the ice-cold sea or simply roll in the snow in the name of spiritual and physical cleansing.
In Russia, residents around the Volga River forgo the sauna and simply head out into the icy river in the dead of winter. Devotees speak of the tradition's numerous health benefits and it is thought by many Russians to be the perfect antidote to festive over-indulgence.
It can't be denied that these customs would be utterly refreshing, if a little extreme, but there are many ways that ice can be used in a more subtle way to enhance the health resort experience.
Adding ice to your Health Club, Spa or Sauna service will provide a talking point and improve customer experience as well as word of mouth recommendations, leading to repeat business and increased earning opportunities.
Ice can be used in a fountain or display to rub over the body and cool down after a sauna or heat treatment, thus stimulating the circulation, the lymphatic and immune systems, and acting as a great stress-reliever.
This can be taken a step further by creating an entire Ice Room, complete with a floor of freshly made ice crystals. Stepping from a hot spa or sauna into this chilled room, crunching over the ice and rubbing more on your body is enough to set your whole being tingling.
For a more intense sensation one to really get the heart pumping - customers can move through the hot treatments to build up their body temperature, before submerging themselves into an ice plunge pool the ultimate cleansing and refreshing experience.
Chris Davis, Commercial Director of Hubbard Ice Systems says: "There really is an ice solution to meet every budget and Hubbard Ice Systems can provide ice flakers that are compact, automatic and need little maintenance, delivering pure flake ice as and when you need it and ensuring the perfect experience, time after time.
