Contrast Therapy
Heat up in our infrared sauna, followed by a 3-minute or more dip in our cold plunge, or reverse the order depending on your goals. Hot/Cold therapy has long been used to help with recovery, including chronic pain and stress. All within a private room. Towels provided.
How to best use Contrast Therapy
1. Start with a sauna for 10-15 minutes.
2. Take a cold plunge for 2-3 minutes.
3. Next, sit in the sauna for 10-15 minutes.
4. Follow and end with a cold plunge. Repeat this cycle as desired.
The more regular and frequent your contrast bath therapy sessions, the greater the long-term benefits. Many of the studies conducted on using contrast bath therapy have found significant differences between those who only dabble in the practice off and on and those who perform it at least four days a week on average.

How often should I cold plunge?
Studies show that a cumulative of 11 minutes per week is a great practice for maximum benefits.
What should I wear during my cold plunge session?
For a cold plunge, IF you choose to wear something we recommend a swimsuit, sports bra, or shorts/trunks. The room has a privacy lock.
How much of my body should I submerge?
To get the most out of cold plunging, submerge your entire body, even your head briefly if you can. The total body dip exposes your whole body, thyroid and back of the neck, which elicits a more dramatic hormonal response.
