Fire & Ice

Contrast therapy of Fire & Ice also known as the Nordic Cycle (Hot, Cold, Rest) allows for ultimate relaxation, recovery and reset.

Infrared saunas use light wavelengths that deeply penetrate the skin, heating the body up from the inside. The average infrared sauna heats to about 55 degrees C. We recommend 20minutes in the Infrared Sauna and a quick 2-4 minute cold plunge. The time will vary based on your experience and tolerance, the most important thing is to focus on your breathing and not extend time. Doing too long or too cold can make it difficult for your bodies internal furnace to reheat and regulate temperature.

Both sauna and cold plunge are not without risk, anytime you elevate or lower your core temp you need to make sure your body can handle the stress. For that reason there are some restrictions.
For your first session with us you will be limited to 2 minutes in the cold plunge and we will be there counting your 30second markers, encouraging deep slow regulated breathing as sometimes people will panic when first getting into the cold. Regulating your breath will make a huge difference.
