Well, lying down on a bed or a sofa, and putting a big bowl of ice water on the side. Then immersing the head slowly at first, into the ice water. The nose, is facing the sky. Then alternate between the two ears, putting them as deep as possible into the water. There is no problem in breathing, because the nose is always out of the water. The first days of doing that, you will go right to sleep after the cold water and you gonna wake up with a heavy head, like drinking whisky the previous night. After some days it won't be like that, and the body will get used to it.

  The reason i am doing it, is to smooth out any wrinkles on my face. Not that i have many, one or two, but the ice cold water completes smooths out the skin. I found out accidentally, that it treated a very mild case of inflammation in the ear i had, for over a year. I probably had the same inflammation 6 years back, and i was in a lot of pain. I went to see a doctor, and he didn't want to prescribe any antibiotics, because the antibiotics for the ear are the strongest of all, due to poor blood circulation around the ear. Anyway, i convinced him for the contrary and he prescribed the antibiotics, 3 days later my ears were working properly again. The last year however, a similar inflammation on the same spot appeared, but very mild. Almost no pain at all. Just a very small discomfort in the area sometimes. Well the ice cold water for an hour, it treats it completely every time. The reason i am doing it however, is to smooth out the skin. That's a lot more important.

    have you tried a wet towel with ice inside for a simpler solution...

For what reason do you do this?

  I replied to a sibling comment. Among other reasons, it treated a very mild inflammation of the ear i had. The inflammation disappears, but it comes back after 5 to 10 days. I don't want to take antibiotics again for that reason, let alone that the doctor won't prescribe it anyway, which is correct in my opinion. We want antibiotics to be prescribed only when absolutely necessary. That mild inflammation is almost irrelevant, i feel nothing most of the time. The ice cold water it treats it very well, so that's good. It also clears up the nasal pathways. Not absolutely, but it is one of the better ways i have found so far.
