Contrast Therapy
Experience one of the most powerful recovery techniques used for centuries - Contrast Therapy, the practice of alternating between hot and cold treatments. At SolHaus, this means moving between our infrared sauna and ice bath for the ultimate balance of heat and cold.
Rooted in ancient traditions from Greece and Rome and still widely used in Nordic cultures today, contrast therapy is designed to stimulate circulation, reduce inflammation, and leave you feeling re-energised inside and out.
The heat from the sauna dilates blood vessels, improving blood flow and easing inflammation.
The cold from the ice bath constricts blood vessels, flushing out toxins, reducing soreness, and accelerating recovery.
Together, this cycle boosts circulation, speeds muscle repair, and supports both physical and mental wellbeing.
