Fire & ice synergy: infrared sauna
To take your recovery to the next level, we strongly recommend combining your cold plunge with our infrared sauna.
Contrast therapy with extreme heat and cold is a powerful reset for the whole organism. While the ice bath reduces inflammation and wakes up the nervous system including the vagus nerve, infrared heat penetrates deep into muscle tissue.
It supports detoxification, eases tension and creates a vascular pump that boosts circulation. The result: mental clarity and a physical glow you simply have to experience.
