Contrast Therapy: Sauna + Plunge

Service Description

WHAT IS IT? Contrast therapy with an infrared sauna and cold plunge alternates intense heat and cold to supercharge recovery, circulation, and mental resilience by creating a "vascular flush" (blood vessels expanding in heat, constricting in cold). HOW DOES IT WORK? Start with 10-15 minutes in the full-spectrum sauna, which uses infrared light for deep tissue heat, promoting detoxification, relaxation, and vasodilation (blood vessel widening). Then spend 2-5 minutes in the cold plunge, causing vasoconstriction (vessel narrowing) and stimulating the nervous system, flushing metabolic waste and reducing inflammation. Repeat: Cycle 2-3 times, ending with the cold plunge for maximum impact. WHAT ARE THE KEY BENEFITS? - Reduces muscle soreness, inflammation, and lactic acid buildup, accelerating healing. - Increases circulation - Encourages detox - Stabilizes mental resilience & mood - Speeds metabolism - Stimulates immune system HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE IT? - Athletic Recovery: 2–3x per week after intense training or events - Chronic Pain or Swelling: Daily or every other day - General Wellness: 1–2x per week as maintenance or post-workout therapy
