Cool head-out water immersion does not alter cerebrovascular reactivity to hypercapnia despite elevated middle cerebral artery blood velocity: A pilot study.

Cool head-out water immersion does not alter cerebrovascular reactivity to hypercapnia despite elevated middle cerebral artery blood velocity: A pilot study.

Episodic increases in cerebral blood flow (CBF) are thought to contribute to improved cerebrovascular function and health. Head-out water immersion (HOWI) may be a useful modality to increase CBF secondary to the hydrostatic pressure placed on the body. However, it is unclear whether water temperatu...
