SAUNA & ICE BATH

Combining infrared sauna and ice bath therapies, known as contrast therapy, offers a range of benefits:

• Infrared Sauna: Utilises light to gently heat your body, promoting relaxation, improving circulation, and aiding in muscle recovery.
• Ice Bath: Involves immersing the body in cold water to reduce inflammation, accelerate muscle recovery, and invigorate the senses.

• Muscle Recovery: Deep-penetrating heat helps relax muscles and alleviate soreness, making it beneficial for post-exercise recovery.
• Joint Pain Relief: Infrared heat can reduce stiffness and discomfort in joints
• Improved Circulation: The heat promotes blood flow, which can enhance oxygen delivery and nutrient transport throughout the body.
• Stress Reduction: Regular sessions may lower cortisol levels, leading to decreased stress and improved mood.
• Skin Health: Sweating induced by infrared heat can help cleanse pores and improve skin tone.

• Reduced Inflammation: Cold immersion can decrease inflammation and swelling, aiding in recovery from intense physical activity.
• Enhanced Circulation: Alternating between cold and warm therapies can stimulate blood flow.
• Mood Enhancement: Cold exposure may trigger endorphin release, leading to improved mood and reduced symptoms of depression.
• Breathwork & relaxation: Upon entering the ice bath, you may notice your breathing naturally becomes deeper and quicker before settling into a calmer rhythm. This natural breathwork has been shown to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, helping to calm the body and mind during cold exposure. We encourage you to focus on deep, slow breaths to facilitate this calming response. Deep breathing can reduce stress by triggering a relaxation response within the body and helping focus the mind away from distracting thoughts.

Combining infrared sauna and ice bath therapies offers a comprehensive approach to recovery and wellness, leveraging the benefits of both heat and cold exposures.
