🔥❄️ Contrast Therapy 101: Heat → Cold → Rest
Contrast therapy is one of the simplest yet most powerful recovery tools you can add to your wellness routine. Alternating between heat (like a sauna) and cold exposure (like an ice bath or cold plunge) helps your body adapt, recover, and reset on a deep level.
Here’s how it works:
HEAT: 5–10 minutes in the sauna — opens blood vessels, increases circulation, and kickstarts detoxification.
COLD: 1–3 minutes in cold water — constricts vessels, reduces inflammation, and triggers an endorphin rush.
REST: 3–5 minutes at room temperature — allows your body to rebalance and integrate the effects.
Repeat 2–3 rounds based on your comfort level.
⚠️ Starter Tips:
Begin with shorter intervals and build gradually.
Always hydrate and listen to your body.
If you feel dizzy or overly fatigued, stop and rest.
Contrast therapy = simple, powerful. Save this protocol for your next visit.
