Sauna
Built for this room by Dale Sauna. Thermo ayous timber, a frameless glass front, under bench heating and an automated saline system that carries mineral salt through the air. Dry heat, low light, no clocks.
SPA & THERAPY
A bespoke sauna, a one degree ice bath and an experience shower, a few steps from the gym floor. Heat, then cold, then the shower to reset, as often as you like. Included in every membership and every drop in.
Heat, cold, repeat
Contrast therapy is simply moving between the two. Heat opens the blood vessels, cold closes them, and repeating the cycle pushes fresh blood through tired muscles. Twenty to thirty minutes, and the rest of the day feels different.
Ice bath
A CET Glacier Ice, the bath professional teams recover in. Chilled to one degree, filtered and UV treated, cedar outside and stainless steel in. Two or three minutes is enough.
Experience shower
Warm, cold, and the settings in between. The reset between rounds, and the last thing before you get dressed.
A simple routine
Sauna for ten to fifteen minutes. Ice bath for two or three. Rest for five. Repeat two or three times and finish cold. Nobody will hurry you, and the staff will talk you through it the first time.
After training
The clearest benefit is recovery. Alternating hot and cold eases the ache after a heavy session and has you ready to train again sooner.
On a desk day
A stiff back, a long week, a bad night. Twenty minutes in the contrast zone is the quickest reset we know of, and you do not need to have trained first.
A word of care
If you are pregnant, have a heart condition or high blood pressure, or are unsure, speak to your GP before using the sauna or the ice bath.
