Inefficacy of neck cooling in suppressing core body temperature elevation during exercise in a hot environment: a randomized cross-over trial
Neck cooling did not significantly affect core temperature or perceived exertion. Maintaining close contact with the skin at sufficiently low temperatures or utilizing cooling methods that prevent excessive negative feedback may be necessary to enhance the effectiveness of neck cooling.
