Contrast Therapy

THE MAGIC OF THE PLUNGE

 

“Having the plunge removes all the barriers to resistance. I’m no longer chained to an ice machine.”

~ Dr. Kelly Starrett

The key to Contrast Therapy are the rapid changes in your circulatory system when you alternate between hot and cold temperatures. The infrared sauna will directly heat the core of your body unlike generic saunas that only heat the air. As you transition to your private cold jacuzzi tub for a cold plunge and immerse yourself into refreshing cold water, your body will cool down resulting in improved local blood circulation so you can heal faster, detoxify and boost your immunity. You’ll feel healthier and less stressed, be more confident and focused, and sleep better too.

 
Hot cold contrast therapy is worth a try because it may just be what you need.

While StretchSource feels there are many health benefits to contrast therapy, we always recommend speaking with your medical doctor before using contrast therapy. It is not recommended for those who are pregnant, those managing chronic health conditions such as Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Central Nervous System Tumors, Raynaud’s disease, Lupus, Diabetes and Neuropathy, a recent joint injury less then 72 hours, metal pins, rods, artificial joints or any other surgical implants in the body, those who are prone to high blood pressure as extreme temperature changes may be shocking to the system, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs. When it comes to the cold plunge, experts recommend a momentary plunge, and a build up of minutes in the cold water over time. StretchSource does not promote attempting to self-treat any disease with contrast therapy without direct supervision of a certified physician. Proper hydration is a primary requirement for contrast therapy use. Drinking plenty of fluids is recommended before, during and your visit. Always consult your physician.
