Until On the Pulse | Chilling Insights: Cold Plunges, Hydrotherapy and Cardiovascular Health Begins

Event Details:

Join us for our series of free, virtual presentations from physician leaders in research and care at the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation® (MHIF) and the Allina Health Minneapolis Heart Institute® (AHMHI) who will address the latest in cardiovascular treatment and advancements.

Cold plunges involve immersing oneself in cold water (50°F or colder) as part of a therapeutic regimen. They are popular amongst athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and those pursuing health advantages such as improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and enhanced recovery. This practice has surged in popularity due to its perceived ability to invigorate the body and mind. However, it's important to note that cold plunges and hydrotherapy can impact cardiovascular health. Dive into this On the Pulse session to explore the intricacies of cold plunges, their cardiovascular effects, hydrotherapy, and more!

We are honored to celebrate the culmination of years of research that has resulted in new technologies for patients! In the few last weeks, we announced a similar research milestone with the FDA approval of the TriClip system for tricuspid regurgitation. We celebrated this important milestone with local media KSTP-TV, who spotlighted the importance of this new technology. We were proud to be a leading clinical site led by Global PI Dr. Paul Sorajja and the MHIF research team who contributed significant data to the pivotal trial.
