Cold plunge studios in the US, city by city

Cold water immersion, ice baths and hot-cold contrast circuits. Water immersion is not the same thing as a cryotherapy chamber — the water conducts heat away far faster, which is why a 50°F plunge feels nothing like 50°F air.

We have mapped 228 across 31 US cities. 179 of them are in the 16 cities with enough for a full list — pick one below for addresses and official sites.

What to check before your first plunge

Ask the water temperature and whether it's held there or drifts through the day. Ask whether someone is present while you're in, which matters more than people expect the first few times. If you want contrast, check there's heat on the same site and that you can move between them freely rather than booking two separate slots.

We have also mapped a smaller number in Philadelphia (5) , Boulder (5) , San Francisco (5) , Washington DC (5) , Atlanta (5) , Boston (5) , Sacramento (4) , Miami Beach (3) , Henderson (3) , Salt Lake City (2) , San Antonio (2) , Tampa (2) , Columbus (1) , Fort Lauderdale (1) , Coral Gables (1) . Those do not get their own page yet — too few venues to be a useful list — but they appear on the city directory.

How this list is built

We map venues from public business listings, then read each venue's own website to work out what it actually offers, keeping the phrase we matched on. A venue appears here because its site says it has cold plunge, not because it paid us — there are no sponsored placements anywhere on Tendground. We don't rank or score venues, and we don't claim to have visited them. How we verify.
