Saunas offer several health benefits including improved cardiovascular health, detoxification, relaxation, muscle recovery, improved circulation, and relief from joint pain and stiffness. Cold plunges can reduce muscle inflammation, improve recovery time, boost the immune system, enhance circulation, and increase alertness and energy levels.

Yes, alternating between sauna and cold plunge is a common practice known as contrast therapy. It can enhance the benefits of both by improving circulation, boosting recovery, and invigorating the body.

It's generally recommended to stay in a sauna for 15 minutes followed by a 1-2 minute dip in the cold water plunge barrels.  Repeat this combination 3 times during the 45 minute session finishing on a cold plunge to get the full benefit of your experience.

For most people, using a sauna 2-3 times a week is beneficial. Some may use it daily, but it’s important to listen to your body and not overdo it.

While saunas are generally safe for most people, those with heart conditions, high blood pressure, or other serious health issues should consult a doctor before using one. It's also important to stay hydrated and avoid alcohol before and after sauna use.

In the sauna it’s best to wear as little as possible, typically a towel or a swimsuit. This allows your skin to breathe and sweat freely.  Bring a pair of flip flops to use for walking to different areas of Tinteán such as from the sauna to the showers to the cold water plunge barrels.
