Fire & Ice

Sizzle & Chill Contrast Therapy

Boise Sauna | Boise Cold Plunge

At Emerald Wellness and Bodywork, our Fire & Ice Contrast Therapy combines the healing powers of heat and cold to enhance recovery, boost immunity, and optimize overall wellness. This innovative therapy alternates between the warmth of the Clearlight TrueWave Infrared Sauna and the invigorating chill of our Cold Plunge, creating a dynamic and effective treatment that helps the body adapt to stress, recover from workouts, and improve mental and physical endurance.

Fire: The Clearlight Infrared Sauna envelops you in soothing radiant heat, promoting deep relaxation, improved circulation, and the activation of heat shock proteins. These proteins play a vital role in protecting cells from stress and inflammation. Our full-spectrum infrared sauna uses advanced technology to provide consistent, penetrating heat, helping to detoxify your body, reduce inflammation, and support cardiovascular health.

Ice: The Cold Plunge invigorates your body by lowering your core temperature, constricting blood vessels, and increasing circulation. This powerful cold therapy boosts immunity, accelerates muscle recovery, and enhances mental clarity. Cold plunging is particularly effective for reducing inflammation, alleviating sore muscles, and promoting a balanced nervous system response.

Better Together: Hot & Cold Therapy

Ignite Recovery and Rejuvenation

Alternating hot and cold therapy goes beyond the benefits of heat or ice alone. Contrast therapy is a great recovery combination to treat injuries, speed up the healing process, and reduce pain for both chronic conditions and acute injuries. It’s a strong option for most people to try because it’s easy and treats so many conditions — so what are you waiting for?

Clearlight Infrared Truewave Sauna Benefits.

Mental Clarity & Resilience

Cold therapy enhances dopamine levels, increasing mental focus and clarity, while heat therapy reduces cortisol and promotes a state of deep relaxation.

Boost Circulation & Lymphatic Drainage

Alternating between hot and cold therapies stimulates blood flow, enhances lymphatic drainage, and speeds up recovery from physical exertion or injury.

Support Immune System

The sudden shifts in temperature activate immune responses that can help fortify your body against illness.

What to Expect During Your Session

Begin your session in the Clearlight Infrared Sauna, where the gentle heat works to relax your muscles, open your pores, and detoxify your body from within. After 15-30 minutes of soothing heat therapy, transition into the Cold Plunge for a refreshing shock that stimulates your nervous system, reduces inflammation, and builds mental resilience. Alternate between heat and cold a few times for maximum benefits.

To enhance your experience, consider pairing Fire & Ice with our Fitness Infrared Cocoon Pod, which uses gentle oscillation and dry heat to further relax and rejuvenate your muscles after your contrast therapy session.
