Ever wondered what it feels totally alive?
Meet contrast therapy—or as we like to call it at SALT Float & Recovery Suites, the "Fire & Ice" experience. It’s not just a wellness trend; it's like giving your body a pep talk with temperatures.
Contrast therapy, which combines the sweat-inducing warmth of a sauna with the shiver-worthy chill of a cold plunge, is designed to do more than just make you gasp and giggle. It's used for enhancing recovery, boosting energy, and improving overall health.
But why exactly does this hot-and-cold routine work wonders?
Walking Through the First Steps
When you're basking in our Finnish Sauna, your body heats up, and blood vessels dilate, increasing blood flow to your muscles and skin. It’s like a mini vacation for your cells—warm, relaxing, and rejuvenating. This part of the therapy helps in easing muscle soreness and improving flexibility. It also gets the blood flowing
Then comes the plunge—literally. Jumping into a cold bath might sound like a dare, but it's all about invigoration. The cold water causes your blood vessels to constrict, which helps to reduce inflammation and flush out toxins.
This chilly dip can also spike your adrenaline levels, leaving you feeling more alert and refreshed than a double espresso could.
Over the course of the hour, you should alternate between the Finnish Sauna & Cold Plunge between 4 and 6 times. Hitting the Cold Plunge for around 10 -12 minutes is the scientific sweet spot. Everything after that is about your mental fortitude and how long you can bear the Cold Plunge!
So, whether you’re an athlete looking to enhance performance and recovery, or just someone curious about feeling alive, contrast therapy at SALT Float & Recovery Suites is your go-to therapy.
It’s not just about chilling and heating; it’s about revitalizing your life. Nothing leaves you feeling fresher, both the body & the mind
There you have it, Contrast Therapy, a.k.a. "Fire & Ice," isn't just a game of temperatures; it's a strategic wellness therapy that keeps your body guessing and your health peaking.
Why not give it a try? Your body might just thank you with some newfound zest!
We offer single sessions or bundle packs for those who want to make it a routine. You can also bring a friend and enjoy the Contrast Therapy together. It’s always good to have that morale support while plunging!
