How it works
Our Method
At SISU Sauna and Cold Plunge we follow the traditional Nordic style of contrast therapy. This includes relaxing in the sauna for up to 15 minutes, chilling in the cold tub for up to 5 minutes, then relaxing to start the process again. Repeat this process as much as you like based on your experience and comfort (3-4 times within the hour session)
What is contrast therapy?
Contrast therapy is an age-old therapeutic technique that involves the alternating use of hot and cold temperatures to promote natural healing, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation throughout the body. This highly effective and versatile therapy can help alleviate a wide range of physical ailments, providing much-needed relief and comfort to those suffering from painful or uncomfortable conditions.
By exposing the body to alternating temperatures that range from hot to cold, contrast therapy works by stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms, increasing blood flow, and reducing inflammation throughout the body. This gentle yet powerful technique can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including arthritis, muscle strains and sprains, chronic pain, and even some digestive disorders.
Whether you are dealing with a recent injury, chronic pain, or simply looking for a natural way to boost your overall health and well-being, contrast therapy is an excellent choice. So why wait?

The benefits
Boost circulation
The alternating hot and cold temperatures help to improve blood flow and increase circulation by constricting and dilating blood vessels. This can improve vascular and cardiac responses.
ease muscle soreness
Contrast therapy can help to reduce pain and discomfort by stimulating the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers. It can also be beneficial for people with conditions like arthritis, sprains, and strains.
Skin Rejuvenation
The alternating temperatures can help to improve skin health by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation. It can also lead to rapid pore minimization reducing oil production, which contributes to skin issues.
Reduces Stress and Anxiety
The relaxing effects of contrast therapy can help to reduce stress and anxiety by promoting a sense of calm and relaxation.
Low-impact treatment
Contrast therapy is a low-impact treatment that can be beneficial for people with conditions that make it difficult to engage in high-impact activities.
