Health Benefits of Sauna & Ice Barrel

Cardiovascular Function

One of the most fundamentally important benefits of regular sauna use is improved cardiovascular health. The sauna mimics moderate intensity exercise from a heart rate perspective getting people into what is known as zone 2 heart rate ranges (approx 110-140 bpm).

Relaxation & Improved Mood

The Sauna can help with bringing stress levels down and relaxing the muscles for active recovery from life or intense training. Learning how to control your stress response and calm your central nervous system in the invigorating cold of the Ice Barrel can also help with stress management and improved sleep.

Mental Health

Contrast therapy can help with mood stabilising hormones helping you feel refreshed and invigorated.

Recovery

Active recovery in the form of cardiovascular training and contrast therapy is a far more effective way of helping the body shift into a parasympathetic mode to help you recover from higher intensity sessions faster. Heat shock proteins activate when the core temperature is raised by 1 degree, these go to work repairing tissues, damaged cells and reducing inflammation.

Longevity

Numerous studies have been done on how regular sauna use can help to reduce incidences of cardiovascular disease and therefor overall all cause mortality rates increasing life expectancy and quality.
