Benefits of Sauna
Improved Cardiovascular Health
Regular sauna usage reduces heart disease, cardiac death, and overall mortality risk. It mimics steady-state cardio, making it a great addition to a healthy routine, improving fitness and endurance.
Sauna has been shown to stimulate and enhance immune system function. Pairing with cold baths reduces your susceptibility to catching a cold.
Immune System Boost
Improved Mental Health
A sauna ritual can be extremely meditative, allowing for time to reduce the stress and anxiety of every day life. The endorphin release will leave you in a calm and happy mood, while reducing symptoms of depression..
Decrease Imflammation & Pain
The increase in blood flow and circulation creates a complete healing practice out of sauna use. Whether your muscles are recovering from tough workouts or you’re experiencing chronic pain from the likes of arthritis, regular use of a sauna can play a role in lowering pain levels.
Benefits of Cold Plunge
Improved Muscle Recovery
Cold immersion accelerates muscle recovery by reducing inflammation, limiting waste buildup, and releasing endorphins, reducing soreness and enhancing performance after exercise."
Immunity & Rejuvenation
Cold baths boost circulation by constricting skin blood vessels, enhancing flow to internal organs. This enhances immunity, reduces inflammation, and rejuvenates.
Skin & Hair Repair
Cold therapy tightens skin, shrinks pores, and smoothens hair cuticles. It's gentler for sensitive skin than hot water. The initial shock is worth the physical and mental boost. Try a refreshing cold bath for a quick pick-me-up."
Cognitive Benefits
Dopamine, the 'feel-good' neurotransmitter, influences mood, motivation, and pleasure. Cold water immersion (CWI) elevates dopamine, offering a natural high for body and mind. Involving 2 to 5 minutes of brief exposure at 55°F to 68°F, CWI reduces inflammation, improves circulation, strengthens immunity, and reduces stress and anxiety.
