Finnish studies<\/a> that suggest saunas can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and dementia.<\/p>\nI see the most benefit with the nervous system. Just putting your body in that extreme heat, and learning how to breathe through it, can settle your fight-or-flight response. It can also help with relaxation, stress relief and muscle pain.<\/p>\n
Ice baths<\/p>\n
Our ice baths are designed for cold immersion, so they\u2019re set between four and six degrees Celsius. Some people get a bit intimidated by them, but I find breathwork is really helpful \u2013 especially nasal breathing. Breathe in for four, then out for four. Try and at least get your shoulders in the water, then just breathe through it for as long as you can.<\/p>\n
We recommend between one and four minutes\u2019 exposure \u2013 even if it\u2019s just a minute, you will still get that dopamine release. You\u2019ll still feel amazing.<\/p>\n
When you do contrast therapy (hot and cold immersion), it triggers your fight-or-flight response. But as you learn to manage it, it starts triggering your parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes rest-and-digest, which then promotes calm and aids digestion.<\/p>\n
Ice baths are also amazing for balancing your stress hormones, improving your circulation and helping with inflammation. It also just helps with your overall mood.<\/p>\n
Eucalyptus steam room<\/p>\n
A steam room is another thermal experience, but it\u2019s wet. Our steam room sits at 45 degrees \u2013 the room is infused with steam and also with eucalyptus oil.<\/p>\n
We find it reduces muscle tension. It opens and cleans your pores. It can help with hydration. Introducing that eucalyptus oil can also help to clear congestion and help with respiratory health. Eucalyptus has anti-microbial properties, too.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s also just a really calming environment. I actually like to start my circuit in there just to sit and relax for a minute.<\/p>\n
Magnesium bath<\/p>\n
Magnesium baths channel ancient wellness methods like you\u2019d find in Japanese or Hungarian bathhouses. There are water jets but they\u2019re very minimal \u2013 it\u2019s not like a hot tub. The jets filter the water and move it around gently, and the temperature is set to 25 degrees, which is very comfortable.<\/p>\n
Magnesium is an incredible mineral that\u2019s best applied topically through your skin, which makes it perfect for bathing. It\u2019s amazing for muscle recovery and pain relief. It helps with circulation and reduces inflammation. It is great for hydration and can help to soothe skin conditions like acne or eczema or psoriasis. So it really does a lot.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s also really incredible for reducing stress levels and helping with your sleep. That\u2019s why a lot of people actually come and do the circuit in the evenings. They walk out feeling really relaxed and people have told me their sleep is amazing afterwards.<\/p>\n
Vitamin C-infused shower<\/p>\n
Our circuit room and both of our contrast suites have a vitamin C shower \u2013 they might be some of the only ones in Sydney at the moment, which is exciting. The water is so light. Seriously, you need to try these showers!<\/p>\n
The reason the water\u2019s so lightweight is that it goes through three layers of filtering, and then the water is infused with concentrated vitamin C. That removes between 90 and 99 per cent of chlorine in the shower water. Some people find vitamin C helps with brightening their complexion, evening their skin tone, assisting with collagen production and strengthening and softening hair, skin and nails.<\/p>\n
LED light therapy<\/p>\n
Most people would have seen LED light therapy (also called red light therapy) used for facial treatment with those glowing beauty masks. What we do is full-body light therapy \u2013 our treatment room has a bed for you to lie on and then a light panel comes down from the ceiling. You can take the room for 30 or 60 minutes and one of our team members will knock halfway through so you can turn over and target your back as well.<\/p>\n
The biggest thing LED light therapy is known for is supporting your skin \u2013 healing blemishes and evening skin tone \u2013 and supporting collagen production. It\u2019s also really great for reducing inflammation, and assisting with muscle recovery and tension, too.<\/p>\n
Halo salt cave<\/p>\n
As you walk into the space, there are two rooms \u2013 the actual salt cave has to be closed at all times because salt can erode. So first there\u2019s a dressing area where you can get into your robe, hang your towels, and get a drink from the water fountain. There are Bluetooth speakers so you can listen to a podcast or music or guided meditation.<\/p>\n
The cave itself is built from Himalayan salt blocks with red travertine on the floor and ceiling. Once you go in, we have a machine that infuses the space with micro salt particles and magnesium \u2013 it will do that two to three times throughout your session. And it\u2019s really gentle. I mean, you can definitely taste the salt, but it\u2019s not too overpowering.<\/p>\n
The number one benefit is supporting your respiratory health. Inhaling the salt particles can help with asthma, it can help with allergies, it can help with colds. It can also help with skin health and problems like acne, because salt itself naturally has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.<\/p>\n
The salt cave is a really amazing space for breathwork \u2013 especially open-mouth breathing to get the best benefits.<\/p>\n
Compression therapy<\/p>\n
We use Normatec boots for compression therapy \u2013 they look a bit like moon boots you pull up to your thighs, so they cover your legs and feet. They way they work is by increasing and decreasing air pressure to help with blood flow and reduce swelling, muscle pain and inflammation. It\u2019s a bit like a robot massage \u2013 and you can choose from seven levels of pressure.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re really great for recovery if you work out really hard or play sports. It\u2019s also great pre- or post-flight.<\/p>\n
IV therapy<\/p>\n
IV therapy is administered by our in-house registered nurse. After you apply for a booking, she gives you a call to talk through how you\u2019re feeling, what you might be lacking, and what you\u2019re looking for out of the vitamin infusion. She may also ask you to do bloods. Then she can create a tailored treatment or a one-off IV depending on what you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n
A lot of people look for help when they\u2019re lacking energy, can\u2019t sleep properly or they\u2019ve been sick a lot. So the infusion might be high dose of vitamin C, magnesium, B12, or all of the above \u2013 something bespoke just for you.<\/p>\n
