TopNotch Worcester

Since introducing ice baths, Topnotch has seen cold water immersion become a genuine part of members' routines and not just an occasional add-on. With a broad demographic from first-timers to experienced athletes, the facility has successfully brought cold therapy to members who would never have sought it out on their own. New users are guided gradually, starting with just a minute to find their feet, before building up at their own pace. That measured approach has turned hesitant first-timers into consistent regulars.

With between 50 and 100 members using the ice baths daily, Topnotch needed a setup that could handle real commercial demand without adding operational burden. Maintenance has been straightforward, with routine checks every 15 minutes alongside existing pool duties, and simple filter changes that slot neatly into day-to-day shift patterns. The units have performed consistently since day one, allowing the team to focus on member experience rather than equipment management.

"Once members try it, they're willing to give it another go. And once they do, many of them come back consistently, even on their days off."
