Social Spa
Fire & Ice Recovery

Recovery & social wellness: heat, cold and rest at your own rhythm — on your own or with people who do you good.

Recovery & Social Wellness

Wind down.
And arrive.

Our Fire & Ice zone is made for recovery: warmth that loosens the body, cold that clears the mind, and rest that lets both settle. Stay entirely with yourself — or share the moment with friends and talk over tea in the lounge afterwards.

  1. 01

    Recovery for the body

    Finnish sauna, infrared sauna, two ice baths (0–2 °C and 6–8 °C), red light and massage chairs — alternate as often as you like.

  2. 02

    Calm for the mind

    No programme, no pressure. Quiet room, soft light and time that's just yours.

  3. 03

    Social wellness

    Come alone or with friends. Afterwards: tea, a smoothie and conversation in the lounge.

OUR OFFERINGS

Two hours just for you: sweat, plunge, feel it settle — at your own pace, until body and mind come to rest.

Not included in the price. Set of 2 towels and 1 kimono available on site for €5. Slippers free of charge. Please bring a deposit for your changing-room locker – e.g. €10, a debit card or driving licence (no phone or house key).

EQUIPMENT – BRIEFLY EXPLAINED

Which towel do I need?

Ideally two: a large towel to sit or lie on in either the Finnish or infrared sauna, and a second one to dry off after the ice bath and shower. A sauna towel or a normal bath towel is perfectly fine – a bathrobe is nice, but not required.

CONTRAST THERAPY — THE PRINCIPLE

Heat dilates vessels, cold narrows them: the planned alternation of Finnish sauna, infrared sauna and an ice bath at 0–2 °C — also called contrast bathing or hot-cold exposure — trains thermoregulation and circulation. Two to four rounds with rest phases in between is a sensible range.

THE RESEARCH

WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS

We don't promise miracles. Here is the research behind cold and red light — with context.

Ice bath / cold water immersion

Hormones

+250%

more dopamine (and up to +530% noradrenaline) – linked to a clearer head and more energy

How: ice bath – 1 hr whole-body immersion at 14 °C / 57 °F (lab setting)

Brown fat

23 of 24

participants showed activated brown adipose tissue under cold exposure

How: cold – 2 hrs of mild cold exposure at approx. 16 °C / 61 °F

Sick days

−29%

self-reported sick days from work compared to the control group

How: cold shower – 30 days of ending the daily warm shower with 30–90 sec of cold water

Immune response

↓ inflammation

markedly lower inflammatory response in an experimental challenge test

How: cold + breath – 10-day training combining breathwork, meditation and cold exposure

Muscle soreness

↓ soreness

less muscle soreness 24–96 hrs after training vs. no treatment

How: ice bath – cold-water immersion (approx. 10–15 °C, 5–15 min) directly after exercise

Mood

↑ mood

more positive mood and changed brain network activity right after the bath

How: ice bath – 5 min whole-body immersion at approx. 20 °C

Red light therapy / photobiomodulation

Muscle recovery

↓ soreness

less muscle soreness and signs of better strength recovery in athletes

How: red light – irradiation at 630–850 nm before or after exercise

Skin aging / collagen

90%+

of participants with measurably reduced wrinkle depth, plus higher collagen density

How: red light – 12 treatments (split-face) or 30 sessions over 12 weeks at 633 nm

Joint pain / osteoarthritis

↓ pain

short-term less joint pain and better function compared to placebo

How: red light – low-level laser therapy at appropriate doses, especially for knee osteoarthritis

Sauna / heat therapy

Cardiovascular

−50%

lower risk of fatal cardiovascular events in a long-term cohort

How: sauna – 4–7 sessions per week compared to 1 session per week

Blood pressure

↓ blood pressure

lower resting blood pressure and improved vascular function with regular use

How: sauna – regular sessions (approx. 15–20 min, 70–100 °C)

Relaxation & sleep

↑ relaxation

reported relaxation, less tension and better sleep after sauna use

How: sauna – heat exposure followed by a cool-down phase
