sessions run for 45 minutes and begin on the hour and half past the hour.
our staff are on hand to provide you with complimentary guidance and coaching through your session.
typically, a traditional contrast therapy will involve multiple rounds of sauna and cold water immersion, we recommend 15/20 minutes of sauna followed by cold plunge for two rounds.
infrared contrast therapy will be 35 / 40 minutes of sauna, ending your session on a cold plunge.
a finnish sauna uses a stove to heat the environment inside the sauna, which then heats your body through the surrounding hot air.
the temperature in a traditional sauna tends to be in the vicinity of 85°c. the low humidity makes a sauna session manageable for most users to tolerate for a period of 15 – 20 minutes.
an infrared sauna heats your body directly without warming the air around you. it doesn’t get as hot as a traditional sauna, meaning it’s easier to tolerate, allowing for usage over a longer period.
typically, infrared sauna is maintained at 55°c - 60°c and is experienced for up to 40 minutes.
infrared waves penetrate the skin and heat the body directly, reaching deep into the tissues, muscles and joints without the air needing to be excessively hot.
