I have just dug out a brochure i got last year that has the following quote
"It is widely used by many athletes and coaches, although there has been little research into its effectiveness... An interesting point that consistenly emerges within the research of CTW (Contrast Temperature Water immersion) is that the method provides the athlete with an enhanced psychological perception of recovery after excersise. This psychological benefit alone provides a considerable boost to the athletes recovery" LIFESTYLE, GETTING THE BALANCE RIGHT, COACHING IRELAND
I have the whole booklet scanned if anyone wants it
