Benefits of contrast therapy

Accelerates Recovery
The rapid temperature shifts in contrast therapy stimulate blood flow and reduce inflammation, making it an excellent choice for relieving sore muscles and speeding up recovery after physical activity.

Boosts Circulation
Alternating between hot and cold treatments encourages blood vessels to expand and contract, promoting healthy circulation and improving oxygen and nutrient delivery throughout the body.

Reduces Stress and Enhances Mood
The invigorating effects of contrast therapy release endorphins, reduce cortisol levels, and help combat stress. You’ll leave your session feeling refreshed, relaxed, and energized.

Strengthens the Immune System
Cold exposure in a controlled environment can stimulate the production of white blood cells, while the heat from the steam sauna promotes detoxification—together, they create a powerful boost for your immune system.

Improves Skin Health
Cold plunges tighten pores and refresh your skin, while the steam sauna helps cleanse and hydrate it. The result is a radiant, healthy glow.

Supports Mental Clarity
The invigorating nature of contrast therapy enhances focus and mental clarity, leaving you sharp and ready to tackle whatever comes your way.

Important Health Considerations Before Undertaking Contrast Therapy

To ensure a safe and beneficial experience, please review the following health considerations before participating in a cold plunge:

  • Heart Conditions: Individuals with cardiovascular concerns such as heart disease, coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, or unmanaged hypertension should refrain from cold plunges, as the sudden cold exposure can place added stress on the heart and circulatory system.

  • Respiratory Health: Those with conditions like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) should proceed with caution. The initial shock of cold water can potentially trigger breathing difficulties.

  • Diabetes and Circulation Issues: People managing diabetes—especially those with peripheral neuropathy—should be cautious, as reduced sensation and circulation may increase the risk of cold-related complications.

  • Skin and Wound Care: Avoid cold plunges if you have open wounds, broken skin, or certain dermatological conditions. Extreme cold can slow the healing process and increase the risk of tissue damage.

  • Cold Sensitivities and Allergies: If you have known sensitivities such as cold urticaria (cold-induced hives) or cryoglobulinemia, cold exposure can provoke adverse reactions. Please consult your healthcare provider before booking.

  • High Blood Pressure: Cold immersion may cause a temporary rise in blood pressure. Those with uncontrolled or severe hypertension should avoid participation.

  • Pregnancy: If you are pregnant or trying to conceive, consult with your healthcare provider prior to engaging in cold immersion therapy, as individual responses to cold may vary during pregnancy.

  • Supervision: Always ensure that someone is present during your cold plunge session to provide assistance if needed. Safety is our top priority.

  • Gradual Adaptation: If you’re new to cold therapy, start with short sessions and gradually build your tolerance over time. This approach allows your body to acclimate safely and effectively.

While sauna therapy offers numerous wellness benefits, it’s important to ensure it’s safe for your unique health needs. Please review these considerations before booking a session:

  • Pre-Existing Medical Conditions
    Always consult your healthcare provider if you have any underlying health concerns—particularly cardiovascular, respiratory, or skin-related conditions. Sauna heat can interact with these in unpredictable ways.

  • Serious Heart Conditions
    Individuals with unstable angina, recent heart attacks, severe heart failure, or uncontrolled high blood pressure should avoid sauna use. Elevated temperatures can increase cardiovascular demand and may pose health risks.

  • Pregnancy
    Expectant mothers—especially in the first trimester—are generally advised to avoid saunas. Prolonged heat exposure may affect fetal development. Always consult your OB-GYN before using heat-based therapies during pregnancy.

  • Heat Sensitivity or Thermoregulation Issues
    If you are sensitive to heat or have difficulty regulating body temperature, sauna use may not be suitable. Conditions like multiple sclerosis or certain thyroid imbalances can increase your risk of overheating or dehydration.

  • Active Illness or Fever
    If you’re experiencing a fever, flu, or any acute infection, it’s best to postpone your sauna session. Heat can place additional stress on your immune system and may worsen symptoms.

  • Respiratory Conditions
    For those with asthma, COPD, or other lung conditions, sauna heat can affect breathing. Always speak with your doctor before using a sauna to ensure it’s safe and beneficial for you.
