What to expect

How it works

Contrast Therapy works by exposing your body to alternating hot and cold temperatures:

Your session begins with deep, penetrating heat that promotes detoxification, improves blood flow, and relaxes the muscles.

After heating up, you’ll plunge into an ice bath, rapidly cooling the body to reduce inflammation, flush out lactic acid, and boost circulation.

This contrast between heat and cold stimulates the vascular system, improves recovery time, and leaves you feeling recharged both physically and mentally.
