Aldi jumps on the latest wellness trend with new arrival which lets people try it out themselves for just £29.99
IT'S one of the biggest wellness trends of the past year.
And now those who want to try out an ice bath themselves can do so, thanks to one of Aldi's latest arrivals.
It's also a good way of cooling down when the weather warms up, and is ready in just 20 minutes thanks to the fact it's inflatable.
The inflatable ice bath is due to hit the middle aisle on May 25, and will cost just £29.99.
It's made from "Tritech puncture-resistant material", which means it's reliable against weight, strain and movement.
It also comes complete with a cover and rope fastener, and can be put up anywhere from the garden to the garage.
