Cold Plunge Therapy
What is it?
Cold plunge therapy involves immersing the body in cold water for a period of time to assist in improving both physical and mental health
What happens in my session?
Our friendly staff will provide you with all the information you need for your session.
You will then be left to enjoy the private plunge room where you will shower before entering the ice bath.
After your session it is important to allow the body to heat up naturally so a shower after your plunge is not recommended. This is because the health benefits continue as your body is allowed to regain its' warmth naturally.
