We do not provide showers for our studio experience. Our studio follows the Søeberg Principle of “end your cold exposure without external rewarming”. In laymen’s terms —let your body reheat naturally after cold exposure therapy rather than immediately heading into a warm shower or sauna. This will force your body to heat on its own to supercharge your metabolism.
End on cold to align with the Søeberg Principle of allowing your body to reheat naturally to unlock full metabolic benefit.
Recommended time during your session varies based on comfortability, goal is to reach a total of 11 minutes of cold exposure per week with up to 50-55 minutes of sauna 2-4 times per week.
The 14-day window is designed to help your nervous and cardiovascular systems adapt to the physiological process of hot and cold therapy. While a single session is an excellent introduction, completing three visits in a short period allows you to experience the cumulative effects on your recovery and energy levels. This timeframe provides a clear look at how a regular practice fits your routine before you decide on a long-term commitment.
The 3-Visit Reset is a curated introductory package that offers three discounted sessions to be used within a 14-day window. While many guests enjoy the immediate experience of their first contrast therapy session, the 14-day timeline is designed to build on that initial introduction. Consistent exposure allows your nervous and cardiovascular systems to adapt more fully to the recovery process, helping you determine how the practice affects your long-term energy and recovery. We’ve designed this as a commitment-free entry point to the studio, giving you the space to build consistency before committing to a membership or package.
