Chill to Fulfill

29/07/2025

Feeling stressed and overwhelmed?

One of the most powerful things about cold water therapy is how quickly it can calm your whole system down. The moment you step into the cold, your body gets a little shock – but in the best way. It lowers cortisol, which is the stress hormone that keeps us in fight-or-flight mode, and helps reset your nervous system.

That shift creates a sense of deep calm, not just while you’re in the water but for hours afterwards. You come out feeling lighter, clearer, and better able to handle whatever life throws at you.

For me, it’s one of the simplest but most effective ways to manage stress and anxiety naturally – and that feeling of peace after a dip never gets old.

Why I love Cold Water Therapy

For me, it’s so much more than a quick dip. Every time I get into that cold water, I can feel my body and mind reset. It helps ease any aches, calms inflammation, lifts my mood and gives me a burst of natural energy that lasts all day.

Rachel summed it up perfectly after her first session with me:

“I was apprehensive at first, but Ruth explained everything and was with us every step of the way. It’s hard to explain the feeling when you get in and sit down in the cold water – I came away feeling calm and invigorated. So much so that I purchased my own pod!”

That’s the bit I love most – seeing people experience that incredible ‘alive’ feeling for the first time.

If you’ve been curious about trying it, my sessions are gentle, guided and perfect for beginners. Message me if you’d like to know more or to book a spot.

Yesterday was special.

Di Stringer has been wanting to ‘Chill to Fulfill’ for ages — and yesterday, she did it.

You can see from the smile on her face how much she enjoyed it.

Di has had a double mastectomy and a couple of months ago went topless on holiday and yesterday she did it again ….. proud of her body, proud of her journey 🤩.

It was a reminder of what this is all about. It’s not just cold water. It’s freedom, it’s power, it’s healing.

I’m so proud of her.

If you’ve been thinking about giving it a go — take this as your sign. There’s no pressure, no judgement, just you and the water… and a whole lot of support.

One year ago today the idea of Chill to Fulfill was born!

I want to help people overcome their personal challenges when it comes to cold water dipping and share the benefits.

Yesterday, the power of the cold tub was real!

After running a confidence workshop for a women’s networking event (as Ruth Smith The Feel Amazing Therapist), I came home absolutely buzzing… but also wiped out.

I jumped straight into the cold tub and, 10 minutes later, the stress I didn’t even know I was holding just melted away.
Pure calm, pure clarity… and then I slept for 2 hours 😴

It never fails to amaze me how powerful cold water therapy can be, not just for energy, pain relief and many more, but for real relaxation too.

Fancy giving it a try? Come chill with me 💧

4 years ago, my life changed... 🥶

I took my first dip in cold water, and I've never looked back!

My life coach challenged me to do a sea swim, and the river was the next best thing, so in I got 😅

What I didn't realise is the world it would open up for me. One tiiiny conversation has been life changing.

🏊🏻 My pain levels are lower
🏊🏻 My mental health is stronger
🏊🏻 I’ve met some amazing people
🏊🏻 And my life has changed for the better

Because of all of this (and so much more), I started www.chilltofulfill.co.uk to give others the chance to feel these benefits too, in a safe, private and supportive space 💙

When I launched Chill to Fulfill I received mentoring via Tees Valley Combined Authority it was a great opportunity and I learnt a lot.

Sometimes I forget how far I have come

Ruth, AKA The Feel Amazing Therapist, lives in Marske-by-the-Sea - a small coastal village in Tees Valley, with her two teenage children. “After decades of struggling with my own mental wellbeing, I was feeling pretty ‘meh’ and I started working with a life coach. I soon regained my self-confi...

One of the main reasons I set up Chill to Filfill was to spread the benefits of cold water immersion in a safe and secluded area bringing together coaching & dipping.

This morning myself, Paul & Andy have been on BBC Radio Tees talking about the benefits and swimming safely. You can listen back on BBC radio sounds. We were on abHealthScape Teesside CICne would like to sea swim, then I highly recommend joining the boys at HealthScape Teesside CIC who will guide you in and make sure you are safe.

All of my clients used to cringe at the idea of being cold.

I GET IT! Being cold is uncomfortable... until it isn't 🧊

Hi I'm Ruth, I run Chill to Fulfill, a cold water therapy immersion experience designed to help people feel their best through cold water meditation methods 👋

The thing I love the most about cold water is that it literally freezes your thoughts, it makes your body and brain slow down and brings that feel-good feeling to the surface - something we could all do with more of ✨
