Where Community and Wellness Meet

Contrast therapy

Contrast therapy, the practice of alternating between hot and cold temperatures to help support the mind and body, is a core element of Alchemize House. 

Emerging research on cold water exposure along with longstanding research on sauna use and has found these practices to be incredibly effective at decreasing inflammation in the body, increasing physical performance, and promoting detoxification.

Contrast therapy goes deeper than the body. Alternating between the sauna and cold plunge challenges individuals in a controlled environment. This potent practice can help promote resilience and balance, energize the mind, and teach you skills for how to regulate emotions.

The saunas and cold plunges at our facilities are communal and gender inclusive. People from all over the world have traditionally gathered in saunas to heal and connect. We see this as a critical component of holistic wellness. 

We ask guests to be mindful of other people’s needs and experiences, whether that’s having a respectful conversation or giving others a quiet space to meditate.

Sauna temperatures typically range from 85°-90° C (185°-194°F ), while cold plunge temperatures range from 8°-12°C (46°-53° F).
