What are some of the benefits of sauna & cold plunges?
There have been many scientific studies about the benefits of detoxifying in a sauna and soothing of inflammation in the cold plunge.
Mental Health: Exposing our bodies between the extremes of hot & cold, plays a role in our stress management. This interaction teaches the body to respond to stressors swiftly and effectively, ultimately reducing chronic stress levels and enhancing mental well-being. Our feel-good factors can last for days as levels in stress and anxiety decrease when embracing these practices.
Physical Health: Contrast therapy provides a powerful combination of physical benefits that improve one’s overall health. Heat from saunas help relax sore muscles, reduce joint stiffness, and calm pain associated with arthritis while cold plunges reduce inflammation and numb our pain receptors around the arthritic joints while stimulating white blood cells helping to fight illnesses.
