About us
Born from a passion for cold immersion and its benefits to mental and physical health, Brass Monkey began in workshops in Yorkshire and Scotland with a mission: to create the best ice baths in the world. And we did.

Brass Monkey designs and builds the world’s finest commercial-grade ice baths, working with leading gyms and spas globally to deliver exceptional cold water experiences. We are pioneers in cold-water immersion, going beyond engineering to craft complete, tailored solutions that help our clients create revenuegenerating wellness offerings.

Our approach is collaborative - we listen, solve problems, and streamline operations to reduce risk and improve performance.


Main products and services
Our ice baths come in three main ranges, each available in various finishes or fully bespoke—offered with or without our patented ice-generation technology. All units are WiFi-enabled, UV-cleaned, autodosing, and filtered using either two-stage cartridge or spa-grade media systems.

■ The Custom Range - For projects demanding unique specifications. We even offer water-cooled systems that can transfer heat to a swimming pool.

■ The Spa Range – Designed to integrate seamlessly with spa environments, available in single and double tub formats.

■ The Fitness Range – Freestanding units ideal for gyms and recovery suites, with quick installation and support for moderate use.

Whichever range you choose, we support you through design, installation, staff training, and launch promotion.

Ongoing Support:

■ ProCare - included with every unit, ProCare ensures optimal performance, handles maintenance, and provides peace of mind.

■ ProCare+- is our premium service, offering professional cleaning and maintenance to keep your equipment running at peak efficiency with minimal effort from your team.

• Health Optimisation Summit
Plans for the next 12 months
We regularly introduce new technological advancements to our commercial ice baths, with a specific emphasis on aesthetics.

Lighting and sound are two areas we are currently exploring.

Our latest products are poised to be trialled in increasingly high-use environments, enabling us to refine their implementation in both freestanding and fully integrated units.

We are currently celebrating installations at Arc (Canary Wharf) and the commencement of a new partnership with Gymbox, Finsbury Park.
