Is Contrast Water Therapy worth prioritizing?

Contrast water therapy (CWT) — alternating hot and cold water immersion after exercise — has a substantial randomized-trial literature behind it, but it paints a genuinely mixed picture rather than a clear verdict. Weighing that against the numbers, Contrast Water Therapy is not a priority based on current data — the evidence is only moderate (52/100), and its estimated impact (29/100) is on the lower end too.
