The hottest wellness trend is all about getting really, really cold.
Each one is controlled by tiny muscles that you usually have no control over. By exposing yourself to very cold water, the muscles contract and push blood towards your core. Regular practice improves the efficiency of this system, thus improving the body’s ability to thermoregulate in extreme conditions. That means waving chronic cold hands and afternoon chills goodbye, for good

We keep the cold plunge at 45-50°F. BUTTTT if you want it colder…. the plunge will get down to 33 degrees. 🥶 Please keep in mind….. water does NOT have to be ice 🧊 chippin’ cold to see benefits!! Most benefits are seen between 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit.
We recommend counting breaths when starting out. Begin with 10 breaths and get out. Work up to 1-4 minutes at a time. Even one or two short plunges is enough to get plenty of benefits.
1 or 2 people can book the room in Dubois. There is an additional $20 charge for the 2nd person.
High-intensity breath work and breath holds while inside the plunge are prohibited.
The plunge has constant ozone and UV filtration and also utilizes hydrogen peroxide and a 1 micron filter. We scrub and drain the tub regularly as well.
This space is shared by our community, and while the filtration equipment is world-class, rinsing off sweat, soap, and surface oils before entering the water goes a long way toward helping us keep our water clean and sparkling for everyone.
The sauna in the back bar room is slightly larger than a stand alone IR Sauna. Our sauna is a 2 person Sunlighten infrared sauna that uses light therapy aside from dry heat.
It depends on what you are trying to achieve. For improving general well-being, 1 session/week is beneficial. If you’re looking to treat an inflammatory condition or speed up muscle recovery post-workout or training, more regular treatments will be needed.
Always consult with a medical practitioner before using saunas and/or cold immersion to treat a pre-existing condition.
