Key considerations

Wherever you want to proudly put your Monk, there are a few things to consider to ensure smooth access. We’ve designed it to fit through doorways, but spaces with narrow, tight corners and stairs should be given thought as they may incur delivery surcharges. Its dimensions are L160cm x W70cm x H85cm. Monk weighs 110kg when empty, and can hold up to 300 litres of water (allowing for displacement depending on the size of the user). 

Monk’s grill at the back of the unit needs fresh air in order for our integrated cooling unit to work efficiently, so we recommend leaving adequate space around it.

Maintenance

Your Monk comes with a 20 micron filter, and we recommend you change it monthly depending on usage. We offer two types of filters on our website: 5 micron and 20 micron.

Thanks to our powerful and natural ozone sanitisation, you only need to change the water every 3-6 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! 

Servicing and 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. Please see our terms and conditions for further details.

Our companion app

your personalised cold water therapy coach

Get ready for personalised, immersive plunges that combine guided audio, soundscapes, and breathwork to instil you with the confidence and resilience you need to override your flight or fight system, and discover just how capable you are. We’re developing game changing protocols that are tailored to your goals, from muscle recovery to neuroprotection. This is 5,000 years of ancestral wisdom matched with cutting edge science - and it’s coming soon to your pocket.

Integrate with your health wearables

You can’t manage what you can’t measure. Monk integrates with your wearables, like Whoop, Oura, and many more, so that you can see how cold exposure impacts important health metrics over time, like HRV and sleep, all in the Monk dashboard.

Schedule your plunges

Your life, your schedule. You can schedule your plunges in advance, and Monk will be at the temperature you want, when you want it. Afternoon triathlon recovery on Wednesdays, and a colder morning wake-up on Thursday? Monk’s got you covered. Plus, you can add it to your calendar for added accountability.

Tested with the best

The trialing team at Monk is made up of a collective of biohackers, CEO's, professional athletes and all around plunge obsessed individuals. We refuse to settle for ordinary – and we think you’re one of us.

You’re willing to dig deep. Find your untapped reserves of discipline, focus, and inner strength. You know you’ve got more in the tank, and want to get more out of life. You’re willing to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, and take back control of your mental, physical, and emotional health. You’re anti-ordinary, and we’ve built Monk for you.

"It's a million miles away from DIY baths. It feels luxurious, relaxing, safe and secure. I felt comforted. I like the shape, it kind of comes up and around you…sturdy and secure."
