Athletes who lay in an ice bucket or a cold whirlpool are using the same concept as applying a smaller bag of ice. Applying a cold modality constricts blood flow to the area which decreases swelling and pain. Athletes who need to use a whole-body cold whirlpool have a larger injury that can't be covered using regular bags of ice.
