One hour head-out water immersions (WI) in various temperatures (32☌, 20☌, and 14☌) produced various effects. Superficial cold application may cause physiologic reactions such as decrease in local metabolic function, local edema, nerve conduction velocity (NCV), muscle spasm, and increase in local anesthetic effects.
