Boost your immunity, resiliance and mood
Studies have demonstrated that immersing yourself in water at temperatures of six degrees Celsius or below can significantly benefit your health. The alternating dilation and constriction of blood vessels during an ice bath help reduce swelling and inflammation, improve circulation, enhance sleep quality, and support weight loss and maintenance. Additionally, ice baths can alleviate depression and contribute to an overall sense of well-being. Consistent use has also been shown to positively affect the nervous system.
Incorporate ice immersion into your wellness routine and experience the profound benefits it offers. Warning: Regularly submerging yourself in cold water can become addictive, as you’ll feel so amazing from this natural high!
Come into full presence as you
immerse yourself in the icy cold waters
Our private cold plunge is located next to the sauna so that you have opportunity to indulge in some contrast therapy. Let the bird song distract you, as time stands still. There is the opportunity to be expertly guided through your experience to ensure that you walk away feeling safe and supported as we take you just beyond the edge of what you thought possible. The dopamine high you’ll experience afterwards will keep you coming back for more.
Cold Immersion Therapy
Scientifically proven to improve your wellbeing.
inflammaTION
The blood vessels constrict, then dilate afterwards which helps flush away metabolic waste post sweat, especially in the lymph nodes. Increasing your blood flow floods your cells with nutrients and oxygen to aid faster recovery. The local temperature of your body is also decreased, which helps limit inflammatory response and therefore speed up recovery.
IMMUNITY
Ice bath submersion, combined with certain breathing techniques, triggers an adaption response to the immune system called ‘controlled hypoxia’ and works by activating the stress hormone adrenaline. This challenges the body to function beyond its comfort zone, having a direct impact on immune function.
MOOD REGULATOR
Supports the central nervous system by aiding in sleep, combating fatigue. This, in turn may improve your response time and efficiency when exercising or going about your day-to-day tasks. The regulation of cortisol levels through ice baths has been shown to improve symptoms of depression and anxiety, as well as reduce sleep-related disorders.
weight loss
Brown fat activation. Unlike the tissue in white fat cells, the tissue in brown fat cells converts energy into heat. This process called thermogenesis has been shown to help with metabolic function and the prevention of weight gain. Cold immersions have been proven to trigger this process and therefore help to boost your immune system and maintain weight.
wim hof shares how cold is his greatest techer
Wim Hof has developed the Wim Hof Method, which is changing the health and lives of people all over the world.
Wim Hof first caught the attention of scientists when he proved he was able to use meditation to stay submerged in ice for 1 hour and 53 minutes without his core body temperature changing. Since then, he’s climbed Mount Everest in his shorts, resisted altitude sickness, completed a marathon in the Namib Desert with no water and proven under a laboratory setting that he’s able to influence his autonomic nervous system and immune system at will.
Almost everything Wim has done was previously thought to be impossible - but he’s not a freak of nature. Ordinary people are proving time and again this is accessible to anyone who is committed to making breathing and cold exposure a part of their daily habits.

HUBERMAN LAB: How to Use Cold & Heat Exposure to Improve Your Health
SUSANNA SØBERG / SØBERG PRINCIPLE
How cold and hot exposure can improve metabolism, cardiovascular and brain health, balance hormones, and decrease inflammation. Dr. Søberg discusses how deliberate cold protocols can improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity and trigger release of neurotransmitters like dopamine and norepinephrine which enhance energy, mood, and focus.
