Orchids are tropical plants, please do not use ice cubes or even cold water. A thorough, lukewarm soak whenever the roots turn silver will do the trick. The plant should never sit in water for extended periods of time.
You should also cut off any blackened / mushy roots as those are already rotted and the rot may spread if it’s left as is.
