Cold Plunges: The Benefits of Cold Exposure with Matt and Brie Kuiper of Desert Plunge (FMP Podcast 95)

Episode 95 of the Fit Mother Project Podcast is all about cold plunges and the many benefits of cold exposure.

In this episode, you’ll meet Matt and Brie Kuiper of Desert Plunge, an Arizona-based company specializing in handcrafted, high-quality cold plunge tubs.

In 2019, Matt and Brie were traveling through Ecuador, when Matt faced a sudden onset of severe insomnia, anxiety, and depression that turned his world upside down. 

For the next seven months, he tried multiple healing modalities with little relief, including antidepressants, talk therapy, natural remedies, and more. 

Then, Matt found a cold plunge wellness center and started going every day religiously. Daily ice baths, exercise, breathwork, prayer, and mindfulness are what turned things around for him and brought relief and healing. 

Matt quickly realized that cold therapy is vital to managing your mental health, and realized how many people this could help. 

And that’s where Desert Plunge was born! 

Matt and Brie want as many people as possible to experience the healing power of cold therapy at an affordable price, and I can’t wait for you to hear their story!

In this episode, you’ll learn about: 

• The benefits of cold plunges.
• How to get started.
• Why cold plunges are so much more than just ‘cooling off.’
• How to make cold exposure work for you and what ails you.
• And so much more!
