'It's called cold water swimming. I call it reconnecting with nature,' laughed Seattle's Lina Karman, standing on a small Seattle beach in her swimsuit. 'We go into the sound all year round. In the summer, in the winter, in the snow, in the rain.'

“I feel wonderful,” said Cohen. “Your skin is tingling and you just feel fabulous.“It’s called cold water swimming. I call it reconnecting with nature,” laughed Seattle’s Lina Karman, standing on a small Seattle beach in her swimsuit. “We go into the sound all year round. In the summer, in the winter, in the snow, in the rain.

“For your mental health,” said Karman. “You cannot come out of the water and be in a bad mood. It’s just not possible. I know people who have serious anxiety issues and they told me if they come every day for half an hour, they don’t have to take anxiety medicine. The end of it is just the feeling of joy and gratitude.”

“It could be a placebo effect, but placebo effect is still an effect,” said Tipton. “And if you’re the person who is benefiting because you do feel great or you perceived that you haven’t had a cold for a year or you perceive that the physical or mental illness you had is improved, then fine, that’s great.

“You haven’t really isolated the active ingredient,” said Tipton. “When you go open water swimming, you do lots of other things. You meet people, you go to a beautiful place, you immerse yourself in a near-weightless environment, you do some exercise, you come out, you have a cup of coffee, you have a big piece of cake. Any one of those things might be the active ingredient, and so until we’ve done the studies, we can’t truly say that it’s cold water swimming that’s providing the benefit.
