THE THERMAL CYCLE & COLD PLUNGE STEPS
1. HOT SAUNA
Enter the soothing warmth of our Ontario-crafted cedar barrel sauna, where the gentle heat envelops your skin. As the humidity takes effect, it revitalizes your senses and triggers a natural, adaptive response, leaving you refreshed and rejuvenated.

+ Allow the heat to penetrate deeply.
2. COLD PLUNGE
Gently lower yourself into our cold plunge pool, located right next to the sauna in Calabogie. Take deep breaths and allow yourself to relax. The shock of cold water causes your blood vessels to constrict, reducing inflammation, while the rush of endorphins promotes mental clarity and a sense of well-being. Simply put, a cold plunge is packed with science-backed health benefits.
