Faq
We recommend starting with the sauna. Heat raises your core temperature, increases blood flow, and dilates blood vessels. Moving into the cold plunge then rapidly constricts those vessels, creating a strong contrast that supports circulation, speeds recovery, and activates the body’s natural healing response.
Yes! All of our suites are private, but that doesn't mean you have to go alone. You’re welcome to bring a plus one (or even two) to share the experience with you.
While you may feel the intensity of alternating temperatures, most clients find the therapy refreshing and invigorating. The body quickly adapts to the temperature changes, and any discomfort typically fades as your session progresses.
