Service Clarifications
The sauna uses 2 dry sauna heaters with electric heating elements which helps relieve stress and improve circulation. The room is heated to the maximum permitted temperature of 194 degrees on the top bench, while the two lower rows are designed to naturally decrease in temperature by about 10 degrees each. The room is kept very dry at between 15-25% humidity.
The steam room uses a 48 kw electric steam generator to maintain the room temperature between 110-125 degrees and nearly 100% humidity. This helps with detoxification, respiratory health, and overall relaxation.
Cold plunges can help reduce inflammation, boost circulation, speed up muscle recovery, and improve mental clarity. They are especially beneficial for athletes and individuals seeking enhanced recovery methods.
We recommend spending 10-15 minutes in the sauna or steam room, followed by a brief 1-3 minute dip in the cold plunge. You can repeat this cycle for maximum benefits, but always listen to your body and adjust accordingly.
