WHAT MAKES MONK DIFFERENT?
SELF CLEANING, OZONE SANITIZATION
Ozone is so potent that it kills viruses, bacteria, and algae. No chlorine, chemicals, or manual cleaning here, folks. Simply change the water every 1-4 months (depending on your frequency of use), by connecting the hose to the reversible flow valve.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL (37-60°F)
At the touch of a button – on the ice bath or the app. No more guesswork or temperatures that don't match the health benefits you deserve.
ERGONOMICALLY DESIGNED
Small enough to fit through doorways, yet spacious enough for 6'6 115kg athletes. Built for both indoor and outdoor use with an ergonomic, comfortable seat.
EASY INSTALLATION
Plug and plunge. No pesky plumbing needed – just fill Monk with water and you’re ready to plunge.
Just be near a standard electrical socket and you're good to go.
ENERGY EFFICIENT
Our insulation's so powerful that our cooling unit only runs for minutes every hour.
On the low end, it's the equivalent to running an LED lightbulb. Running it more regularly? It's like a fridge or freezer.
DON'T GUESS, PROGRESS.

MAINTENANCE
Your Monk comes with a 20 micron filter.
Thanks to our powerful and natural ozone sanitisation, you only need to change the water every 1-4 months, depending on usage.
We’ve made changing the water simple: our cooling unit has a reversible flow value, so it will automatically pump the water out via the hose that comes with your Monk, straight into a sink or drain. No manual bailing out water with buckets!
SERVICES & REPAIRS
Our top priority is to fix any problems we can, either over the telephone or in-person with a Monk engineer. Any defective or damaged item that we can’t fix will be repaired or replaced. Your Monk comes with a 1 year warranty.
FAQS
1. Will I fit in Monk?
Monk has been designed to be compact, yet spacious enough to accommodate a wide range of body sizes. Athletes as large as 6'6" and 115kg (like Anthony Joshua) find Monk comfortable to use. We've included three different fill lines internally (fill to 170L, 200L or 230L) to accommodate for all sizes of human.
Monk features a unique hybrid design where users are in a semi-reclined posture that is neither fully upright nor completely horizontal. This space-efficient posture allows us to maximise comfort while fitting a variety of body types. Additionally, this position increases hydrostatic pressure, which can enhance circulation, reduce muscle swelling, and promote faster recovery.
2. What are the seat dimensions?
The seat inside Monk is 53cm in width x 32cm in length x elevated 12cm in height. The complete length of Monk when seated inside is 85cm creating space for your legs to stretch out in Monk.
3. How does Monk keep the water clean?
Monk has a dual stage filtration system, with the water continuously circulating through a sediment filter and being infused with ozone. The filter’s job is to keep the water clear of physical particles and debris, and the ozone sanitisation’s job is to keep the water free from bacteria and pathogens.

''HELPS ME BE A BETTER ATHLETE AND HUMAN''
“For me, ice baths are about mental resilience as much as they are physical recovery. This is a wellness innovation that helps me be a better athlete and human. I’ve witnessed the evolution of Monk firsthand, and I stand by them – not just as an investor, but as a true believer in their mission to become the world leaders in cold water therapy.“
ANTHONY JOSHUA - PROFESSIONAL BOXER
''IT'S HAD THE BIGGEST IMPACT ON MY MENTAL CLARITY AND MINDSET!''
"Cold water therapy has had the biggest impact on my mental clarity and my mindset. It's helped me to make better business decisions, and I've been using the Monk prototype before important meetings. Unquestionably, Monk is leading the seismic shift in health."
JAMES WATT - CEO OF BREWDOG
"I cannot recommend Monk enough."
"As a professional who needs to stay at the top of my game, I found the stress reliving, endorphin-creating, immune-boosting benefits immense. But the options of continually buying bags of ice in ugly tubs & barrels didn’t fit my high standards around aesthetic or the environment. I cannot recommend Monk enough."

THE SCIENTIFICALLY-PROVEN BENEFITS OF COLD WATER THERAPY
MENTAL HEALTH
Depression, anxiety, and stress have been closely linked to chronic inflammation. Not only is anti-inflammation one of CWT’s most profound physiological responses, it’s also proven to stimulate the vagus nerve. On a biochemical level, CWT created a euphoric explosion of neurotransmitters, and has been proven to increase dopamine by 250% and norepinephrine by 530%.
IMMUNITY
Cold water immersion has been shown to provide long-lasting positive changes to our immune, lymphatic, and circulatory systems, which underpin our immunity and ability to deal with disease and infection.
Find out more on how CWT increases disease-fighting white blood cells, boosts natural killer cells that are related to tumour immunity, and increases glutathione, an antioxidant that’s vital for detoxing and combating oxidative stress in the body.
FAT LOSS & METABOLISM
When you cold plunge, your body goes into overdrive to stay warm. To cope, it burns stored white fat (aka “the bad fat”) which aids weight loss, activates brown adipose tissue (aka “the good fat”), and has been proven to boost metabolism by 350%.
Cold exposure has been shown to improve leptin sensitivity (one of the most important regulators of body mass). Learn more about brown fat, hypothyroidism, leptin, and thermogenesis.
MUSCLE RECOVERY
There’s a reason elite athletes and sports teams have used ice baths as an integral part of their recovery protocols for decades. Predominantly, cold immersion causes blood vessels to tighten (vasoconstriction) which stems inflammation, helps the lymph nodes move lactic acid and other toxins out of the body, increases blood flow and speeds circulation, and delivers much needed oxygen and nutrients to the muscles which aid their recovery.
