Recovery

Contrast therapy, also known as hot and cold therapy, involves alternating between hot and cold temperatures, such as moving from a sauna to an ice bath. This ancient practice promotes blood flow, reduces inflammation, and speeds up muscle recovery.

The ideal temperature for an ice bath range from 6 to 10 degrees It is advisable not to exceed 10 minutes in the bath at a stretch. Remember, consistency is more effective than prolonged exposure. If you are a beginner, begin with one minute in the ice bath followed by one minute out, repeating this cycle three times. As your body adapts, gradually increase your duration in the bath.

Infrared sauna sessions are 45 minutes, providing ample time for preparation and post-session changing without feeling rushed.

Ice bath sessions are 20 minutes, and to maximise the benefits per session, all you need is 11 minutes.

Contrast sessions are 60 minutes, to give you ample time to prepare, including a shower before your ice bath, without feeling rushed.

Remember, the later you arrive, the less time you have for each session.
It’s advisable to arrive early, especially if it’s your first session.

Our Fire & Ice room for contrast therapy and ice bath sessions, as well as our Infrared Sauna space, are completely private, ensuring a comfortable and personal experience.

For compression therapy and red light therapy, these are located in our new shared recovery zone, designed to provide a relaxing and inclusive environment.

When using the sauna, it is recommended to wear underwear or bathing suits for comfort. Since you will sweat, it’s important to choose clothing that allows for ease of movement.

After your session, loose clothing is advisable.

For your ice bath bookings, it is recommended to wear a bathing suit or something that you don’t mind getting wet.

A water bottle to ensure you stay hydrated, we have a cold filtered water fountain for any refills or you can also purchase a water at reception on your way in.

If you do have long hair please bring a hair tie as we recommend wearing it up for your comfort in both the ice bath and Infrared Sauna.

We do provide you with a towel for each session booking. However, a second towel comes in handy especially with your ice bath sessions.

You can also hire a 2nd towel on your way in for $3.

Absolutely! We do highly recommend allowing your body to naturally cool down after using the Infrared sauna and taking a shower once you’re back home. This will ensure that you continue to experience the benefits for up to an hour after your session concludes.

Additionally, if you plan on having an ice bath, it is absolutely critical to shower beforehand.

We also require you to shower after your Infrared sauna before entering the ice bath for hygiene reasons.

Applying oils and lotions in the sauna is not recommended. Doing so can clog your pores, hinder sweating, and potentially stain the wood.

It's totally up to you! Simply ensure you keep a watchful eye on it, as it has the tendency to heat up.
