Practising contrast
therapy safely

To ensure you enjoy the benefits of contrast therapy safely, follow these guidelines:

Consult a healthcare professional: Before starting any new therapy, especially
if you have health concerns, consult with a doctor or healthcare provider.

  • Gradual acclimatisation: Gradually acclimatise to both heat and cold temperatures to avoid shock. Start with shorter sessions and gradually increase duration.

  • Hydration: Stay well-hydrated before, during, and after sessions to prevent dehydration.

  • Monitoring body temperature: Be aware of your body's response and exit the sauna or plunge if you feel unwell.

  • Supervision: Always have someone nearby during sessions, especially when using cold plunges.
