our servicescontrast therapy flow sessions // COming soon
Contrast therapy, also known as immersion therapy, alternates between hot and cold temperatures to enhance recovery and promote overall well-being. This therapy works by engaging your body's natural processes of vasodilation (in heat) and vasoconstriction (in cold), alternating blood flow to internal organs and extremities. This cycle stimulates circulation, supports detoxification, and aids in muscle recovery.
INFRARED SAUNA (private and group)
Infrared sauna therapy uses infrared light to deeply penetrate your muscles, tissues, and cells, providing the benefits of sunlight without harmful UV rays. The gentle heat induces a more comfortable, longer-lasting sweat, leading to a deeper detox. Infrared saunas stimulate your body's natural cooling systems, improving your overall health, resilience, and balance.
ICE BATH // coming soon
Ice bath therapy, or contrast therapy, involves immersing the body in cold water to trigger a response from the body’s circulatory system. The process of vasodilation (heat) and vasoconstriction (cold) causes blood vessels to expand and contract, helping flush out toxins and reduce inflammation. Cold exposure is also a known stimulator of brown fat, which increases metabolism and helps the body burn fat more efficiently.
HOT PLUNGE // coming soon
Hot plunge therapy involves immersion in warm water to help relax muscles, ease tension, and improve circulation. The heat helps promote vasodilation, expanding blood vessels to allow fresh, oxygenated blood to flow to muscles and joints, supporting recovery and relaxation.

what people are saying
The sauna was amazing, felt very refreshed and relaxed afterwards and already noticing the benefits, highly recommend.
— robertaMy partner and I really loved the warm atmosphere and sleek interior of the studio and sauna. Conventional gyms can be loud and overcrowded, definitely not the case here.
