What is the Wim Hof Method?
THE WIM HOF METHOD CAN BE DEFINED BY ITS SIMPLE, EASY-TO-APPLY APPROACH AND ITS STRONG SCIENTIFIC FOUNDATION. IT’S A PRACTICAL WAY TO BECOME HAPPIER, HEALTHIER AND STRONGER.
REALISE YOUR FULL POTENTIAL
Over time, our relationship with the world we live in has changed. Our lifestyles have disconnected us from the natural environment.
Because of this disconnection, our age-old survival mechanisms are no longer triggered and we’ve lost touch with our inner power.
Through decades of self-exploration and groundbreaking scientific studies, Wim has created a simple, effective way to stimulate these deep physiological processes and realise our full potential.
The Wim Hof Method is about reconnecting us - to ourselves, to others and to nature.
THE WIM HOF METHOD IS BASED ON 3 POWERFUL PILLARS
Cold therapy
The cold is your warm friend! Learn how to use the power of cold to burn fat, boost your immune system, sleep better, reduce inflammation and enhance nature’s own mood boosters.
Breathing
Master scientific breathing techniques that improve your energy level, detox your body, reduce stress levels, rebalance the nervous system and strengthen your immune system.
Commitment
Going deep into your own physiology takes commitment and a willingness to move out of your natural comfort zone. The time to unleash your inner power is now!
UNLOCK THE BENEFITS
The power of the Wim Hof Method is the combination of the three pillars. A committed, consistent practice including the breathing technique and cold exposure can help you unlock a host of benefits including;
- Increased energy
- Better sleep
- Reduced stress levels
- Heightened focus & determination

BACKED BY SCIENCE
For many years Wim’s incredible achievements were thought scientifically impossible and he was viewed as nothing more than a circus act. Things quickly changed in 2011 following the first Radboud University study which showed he was able to voluntarily influence his autonomic nervous system.
Since then Wim has continued to submit himself and his method for scientific study and research institutions continue to explore the potential of the Wim Hof Method.
